Sorry, all forgot that WCG is the only one tracking contributed CPU time. Does BOINCview catch these jobs and if so do they list as the CPU / GPU time or both in the Completed tab?

Does BOINCview catch these jobs and if so do they list as the CPU / GPU time or both in the Completed tab? (I am not sure that I am understanding your question right.) WUs of GPU-projects are shown in the BOINC Manager with correct CPU time which is only some minutes for a whole WU lasting several hours. But the shown time to completion is wall clock time. On my quad there are running 4 WUs for WCG and additionally two WUs for GPUGRID (my video card has two GPU processors). So BOINC Manager shows six running instances.  Ask not what the world can do for you - ask what you can do for the world. |

I´m not using boincview. But on the websites is the GPU-Time not listed. Seti@home shows CPU-time (120 seconds or so) GPU-grid nothing, only creditpoints.

You can find CPU time and the elapsed time for entire WU on the web page for this WU of GPUGRID. Look to this example. Ask not what the world can do for you - ask what you can do for the world. |

Found so much on the X-project comparer that WCG / GPUgrid is 0.075 per processing second, 13.318 fold credit, with 859 devices that both do WCG & GPUgrid. No opinion how Apple / Orange that is. 859*13= 11,167 regular CPU cores of average speed. We'll know if the target project finds it's way how CPU / GPU truly compares in time to complete when the product should be identical.
----------------------------------------thanks for looking into the record time.
