I also see increases in DCF * with a quad core running only HCMD2, up to 3.0 or so. It's a penalty of running a single project for which runtime is difficult to estimate in advance.
* Duration Correction Factor, in Properties on the Projects tab, in case anyone is wondering. |

As a learning point, maybe on a next similar project that uses this offspring construct, the parents and children and grandchildren could be given an A / B / C type of label with each their own flop estimates similar to what's done with the Px and Sx for DDDT2 C-Type. Not 100% sure, but client 7.0 or 7.2 could have "per science" type of DCF [looks to get deprecated]... a SDCF so to speak. Read http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/RuntimeEstimation, but to me it still does not answers how to treat hi variability within a single science... the non-deterministic part. It's long overdue to have something done about it, the way clients handle DCF for multiscience grids. WCG has been here 7 years now and Trac tickets at Berkeley have existed for years to fix this problem, reason why I keep cache in the 1.0 - 1.25 range, so it wont fly out of the "reliable" zone.
Meantime, we just crunch on. --//-- |

Haha! I loved it when the parents were away for the weekend!
I've had a run of child units which have completed between 15 minutes and 4 hours. I think we're doing a good job clearing out all of these units and we'll be pushing that leading edge beyond 2200 soon! |
