Re: I don't run BOINC continuously – and anyway, it can only run when the computer is turned on wink

Don't think so. Work of the rush/repair/make up type anyway has short deadlines. If the devices is not presently considered a quick returner you'd not even get it.

Here's a short production table for the last 6 days:

Jul.22-08 33464
Jul.23-08 31644
Jul.24-08 31507
Jul.25-08 26112 (day when last 11,000 were send out)
Jul.26-08 17124
Jul.27-08 7500 (morning data)

Re: I don't run BOINC continuously – and anyway, it can only run when the computer is turned on wink

Was wondering why the initlal replication of 3 on the three tasks I currently have. But I see that this is part of the procedure to get the site ready for single redundancy task.

Two in progress, 1 waiting to start. Of course they will be done by tonight. smile

Don't know if the bug is still active or not, but the initial replication value was assuming the total copies send out, initially plus the later repair jobs. Look at the distribution times if it was a forced additional or really a initial 3 work unit distro.

cool DDDT last 6.05 (redundant) jobs

Then I assume that I have nothing to worry about? Assuming, though, that I do get a job, is the date that the single-redundancy jobs go out already pre-determined, or does it depend on when the last 6.05 jobs get returned?

(Now, what would be really interesting is if a very substantial portion of the 7500 represented jobs that already had 2 returns but with inconclusive validation. wink)

Re: DDDT last 6.05 (redundant) jobs

The Statistics only show Validated jobs. d oh

As earlier explained it's "hands on" and estimations are based on past experience. Nothing written in stone and surely tomorrow or the day after the will be an update.

Now if you worry about getting a rush job and not finishing in time the option is to switch DDDT out of the My Projects profile until the definitive announcement. That way your part time crunching wont cause it to sit on a half completed job.

On the contrary, I want to contribute, and if my crunching results in a net benefit to the project then I'll do it. And I'll keep the computer turned on this time, even increasing the memory and CPU utilization levels. It's not the credit's that I'm worried about. I want to assist in getting the job done. wink

I presume the last batch has gone out? I logged in shortly after 9:00 a.m. and got no work – even hit "update" once or twice; therefore, I assume that I am indeed not considered to be a quick returner. Thanks.

Re: I don't run BOINC continuously – and anyway, it can only run when the computer is turned on wink

Give me a second to wet the finger, run my charting script and I'll get back.

Jonathandl, the last batch of 11,000 was depleted on Friday Night. We did 32-33 thousand a day before this retooling, so it only takes on a rolling basis about 8 hours to deplete a batch.

The beauty I noticed on 2 of my last DDDT jobs was that the extra copy was remotely canceled by WCG, the moment the quorum 2 was complete. Remotely canceled means, WCG readies an instruction which upon first client initiated contact gets transmitted. This was also how the bad FAAH jobs were taken out. The client shows in message log "aborted by project". Maximum efficiency.

ciao

Looks like WCG had a Whoa Nelly 12 hour morning with a total of 106 CPU years of validated work. For DDDT the updated result counts are these, with in this morning session more than 1 batch cleared out.

Jul.22-08 33464
Jul.23-08 31644
Jul.24-08 31507
Jul.25-08 26112
Jul.26-08 17124
Jul.27-08 27301
Jul.28-08 19807 (12 hour production)

If things went to plan, knreed forced a residual rush (likely around 12-13 UTC on Monday). That was for me about 3 hours ago.

And a number to complete I don't have. Not much I think. For all we know there are e.g. 7,000 in pending validation waiting on 1 of 2 copies out in the field. Considering completion times and high priority, they should for a majority be back before end of this crunching day.
