GPU suggestions?
(Message 10519)
Posted 22 days ago by marmot You'll want 12GB+ for the quantum app. This is the cheapest NV 12 GB card on newegg. Thanks, I'll do some shopping Friday. |

GPU suggestions?
(Message 10517)
Posted 23 days ago by marmot My expenditures went into CPU cores last winter and this winter other expenses are taking my BOINC hardware budget. SiDock suggested they might start working on protein models of a Corona virus, that has not jumped to humans yet, that is causing havoc in pig farming; deaths to extreme diarrhea. So I'm content with the CPU cores path (also the efficiency of GPU's has some projects years ahead in data and shutting down some GPU WU's). Please offer me a suggestion for the lowest cost NVidia card that can actually run these as my 1060 only has 3GB. It seems 8GB VRAM might not be enough, IDK.

Gaia@Home info
(Message 10327)
Posted 25 Nov 2023 by marmot 1000_Gaia@home, 1018_Gaia@home fail with "INTERNAL ERROR: cannot create temporary directory" on many hostshttp://150.254.66.104/gaiaathome/forum_thread.php?id=66 AnandBhat (wish you got your 100 hours, they were so short) succeeded in running these; maybe running from root account or possibly tracked the error and opened up permissions on the Gaia WU directory request. Project future: zupa: We are planning to run calculations of the physical properties of asteroids based on Gaia data, but we are stuck with the implementation :( . I hope we can solve this quicklyhttp://150.254.66.104/gaiaathome/forum_thread.php?id=67&postid=407#407 |

Bitcoin Utopia cgminer (Campaign #x) currently in Newapps Stats

Posted 21 Nov 2023 by marmot It's a dead project for many years now. Remove the project from your BOINC app. You don't know what that website might be sending you PC It's a dedicated BOINC machine for badge hunting. Isolated. I'd be curious if they did send something. |

Posted 17 Nov 2023 by marmot It's BS. Curious as to how the NewApps Script saw back into a day from years past. The GRAVITATIONAL WAVE SEARCH O2 TUNING WU also disappeared. Shame, thought that might be achievable. |

Posted 16 Nov 2023 by marmot I joined just after Utopia stopped sending work so I don't have any 100 hours on those campaigns like: CPUMiner (Campaign #x) CudaMiner (Campaign #x) cgminer (Campaign #x) Newapps Stats reports for my CPI: 1 Bitcoin Utopia cgminer (Campaign #1) (for 333MH/s ASICs - NCI) 0.00 251.36 The website bitcoinutopia.net gives an error when trying to consent to cookies: We could not verify the security token. Please try again.on multiple browsers. The last blog entry is about a 2019 SETI@Home annual fund drive https://www.bitcoinutopia.net/bitcoinutopia/prefs.php The BOINC Event Log shows: 11/16/2023 4:41:43 PM | Bitcoin Utopia | [error] No scheduler URLs found in master file But the WU pages shows up to 119 users in the last 24 hours: https://www.bitcoinutopia.net/bitcoinutopia/workunit.php I'll need to purchase some used ASIC USB dangle miner if/when BOINC sees a scheduler URL? How do I get work if I can't login and BOINC can't get the master table? Their contact mechanism doesn't even work: There was an error trying to send your message. Please try again later. |

All-Sky Gravitational Wave search on O3 v 1.07
(Message 10294)
Posted 14 Nov 2023 by marmot How did you get 1.07 tasks? Every time I try, I get 1.06. This is with 3080 Ti or greater. So VRAM size it not a problem. Ah, good point. So there is not a version identified in the log. I'll adjust my hypothesis to "the server now tests for 4.5GB RAM available for any version". They are sending out both 1.06 and 1.07 and it'll be random what we get; the profile won't let us filter by version just opt in to beta. Could keep manually deleting 1.06 until a 1.07 shows. But 1.06 will be obsolete some time. I looked at your apps list and you don't have a WuProp entry for "All-Sky Gravitational Wave search on O3". You have 25 hours from today for "Gravitational Wave search O3 All-Sky #1" so is that the 1.06 version? I do have 27xx hours on this name so my 1060 3GB must have been running that in the past (I don't remember). (The AMD card was doing Milkyway). You have way more experience in these name shifts. QUESTION: Do you think "All-Sky Gravitational Wave search on O3" will be the permanent new name for version 1.07 and if we just wait for ver 1.06 to fade away we'll eventually get hours of that WuProp name? |

Posted 14 Nov 2023 by marmot This new version requires 4.5 GB GPU RAM and it checks. Tried faking the RAM size in coproc_info.xml and making it read only but no luck. NVidia 1060 3GB is pissed off. It threw bits at my dog. It wants to know why it can't be a 6GB like it's cousins... |

Posted 1 Aug 2023 by marmot https://uspex-at-home.ru/prediction/ Doesn't appear to be. 3 new users all joined on June 23, ran a few results, and nothing since. https://uspex-at-home.ru/prediction/user_search.php?action=search&search_string=&country=any&profile=either&team=either&search_type=date&action=Search There are no teams. It's encrypted VM with a wrapper that does the communications and we can't log into the VM OS because they are worried about decrypting of their proprietary USPEX crystalline structure simulation code. https://uspex-team.org/static/file/Khrapov_2017_2.pdf I tried "success" "uspekh" and "OGANOV'S LAB" but I really shouldn't have tried to guess and get a ban. It's a left over puzzle solving habit from text based adventure game days. |

Posted 2 May 2023 by marmot Thanks everyone, hope they are OK. Appreciate all the hard work, Conan. Lot of love for statistics. What about a spreadsheet and drop in an image here? I use LibreOffice Calc spreadsheet to keep data sets on performance of various WU's and wouldn't mind helping. Ethercalc or Baserow offer real time collaboration and Ethercalc allows multiple users at once. Congratz to everyone's hard work. WuProps hunters are a boon to new projects ability to attract machines. We're the pioneer weeds on fresh basalt. Didn't realize I made so much progress. That Short SiDock app is waiting on putting postmarketOS on an Amazon Fire... And boooo to climateprediction.net for no app selection!!! |

Posted 24 Apr 2023 by marmot Ithena Computational has 15k Hex WU's up. I have 5000+ hours on that WU and still not broken 50k credit. Very small credit per hour. |

Posted 24 Apr 2023 by marmot This is probably better posted at PrimeGrid forums but it's also relevant here: The Cullen/Woodall (Sieve), as GPU apps go, has really nice characteristics. Been stress testing them on an EVGA GTX 1060 and an TriX R9-280x. They use about 0.02 CPU each on 16 thread 2700x, which is bare minimum. It seems they move into VRAM a shared set of libraries amounting to about 200MB, then each WU needs about 75MB per. These WU do drain more power on both cards at identical Afterburner settings (85W ave vs 41W for Milkyway on the 280x). |

Posted 24 Apr 2023 by marmot Rosetta has 4500+ Rosetta Beta tasks, and that's ALL they have right now so if you want your hours now is the time to jump on them!! I was at work, damn. Maybe some more will get dumped. Thanks for the heads up |

Posted 23 Apr 2023 by marmot Question for Michael Goetz: Is Composite Grid exporting to Free-DC? The website has me with 3.9m credit, but I don't have evidence of ever doing a WU for dev.primegrid.com, so guessing that you cloned the main site to the dev site and got my credit from my prior history? I don't see a setting for exporting results. EDIT: Looked at the Free-DC All Projects page and don't see Composite Grid in archived or current so guessing no export or I'm not using that section correctly. https://stats.free-dc.org/index/#boinc_projects |

Posted 23 Apr 2023 by marmot Anybody know why GoofyX Monkeys v1 is showing as active? I don't see anything in the auto news about it being active. Might have been me. I was building a Windows X BOINC VM and decided to start up an old version of my AntiX Linux VM and also a laptop HD cloned into a VM called 'Games' that I made for things like Black n White or NWN v1. If not me, I'd still choose option 2. |

Posted 1 Apr 2023 by marmot most of the hours recently are me, though i'm not the only one (which i assume is why hours actually count here) They tried some BOINC2Docker WU's from the Parlea server and they had issues. Guess they started a test bed. Thanks for the heads up. Can we get an account now while before the WU's flow? |
