Thank you for the head's up. Just noticed that now have two saphires badges. Also the present from Santa aka the GPU seems to be making up for the 4 core Intel machine that died sparken mit KABOOMEN. Nice one on the badges I would suspect that the planned outage will be over the weekend seeing as that's when the servers are least under pressure (College's, University's & Businesses are offline), the sooner the better though.   |

Another interesting post from knreed indicating future development work on WU size.
----------------------------------------The last post of knreed regarding the major database issues mentions as a possibility the repacking of WUs. It goes in the right direction. But knreed please if you repacking GPU WUs just tell us well in advance so that we can adapt the app_info.xml file to change the WU type number and avoid having idle times on the dedicated machines. We will give advance notice. There are a lot of strong reasons to do this since it would be great if we got into a situation where every processing resource could return at least 2-3 results per day. This would mean putting enough work in so that big power GPU's would only return a few results per day (but they would be big ones) while your Android cell phone would also be able to complete a couple while it is plugged in at night. It will also be good in that some of our volunteers have pretty solid PC's, but they don't use the PC's much. A mechanism that accounts for that and a project that has a wide range of job sizes available would allow that PC to also return work on a regular basis. Since we want to address this in a comprehensive solution, we will be working with Berkeley to make this a core feature in BOINC. Once that is done, we then hope to apply it to multiple of our science apps (where possible). But that will take some time and testing so it is a ways off yet. |

Getting it over and done with is the main thing though. |
