Well, the fastest one of the new batch is on track to finish in less than 100 minutes on an i7-2600k. I'll keep you posted.

Greetings all, Estimated times may be off a bit on the grouping I just sent out. These work units will run longer than the previous batches. about 3-6 times as long. We are hoping they run in the ball park of 3 hours based on the estimates created from the tiny guys that have been sent out in the past few days. There are over 12,000 results that need to be sent out. Previous work units had the identifier AAA74693, these new ones will be different.... AAB20794 and AAB20796 Thanks, -Uplinger Lots of them finishing right around 1:45 on any decently current CPU, but I am also seeing a few units that are anticipated to run 5-6 hours on the same CPU. Guess you'll have the data on your end to refine from there. Definitely better run times than the first two batches. Took me nearly 2 hours to get all my cores loaded up. Off to bed and I'll check my results in the morning. Six days validated thus far, 80 to go for emerald. Distributed computing volunteer since September 27, 2000 |

Finished six jobs from the first batch. No anomolies notices.
----------------------------------------Crunching now on six more from second batch. Although all started at the same time, 1 has 50% less time left. Cheers   |

Four of the AAB20794 batch have completed, with CPU Time from 2.21 to 3.04 hours.

Just noticed that a couple from batch AAA74693_0000001 have gone Inconclusive, perhaps because of big difference in run times between self (1.29 and 1.27 hours) and wingman (9.35 and 18.43 hours). We'll see what wingman 2 gives.

tonyh205,
The beauty is, that it truly does not matter how short or long a task runs [long as it's not 10x longer than specified estimate for a task]. The only thing that is being compared is the result data. If your client suffers inconclusives more frequently with GFAM/DSFL, then turning invalid, sadly, then it will very likely happen to this science too running on said VINA engine [bar programmers find a solution for the small group of AMD CPU incompatibilities,... see GFAM/DSFL forums!]. For now, just wait for the 3rd copy to complete to see who gets the thumbs down. --//-- |

Thanks for clarifying that, SekeRob. Fair enough, the long wingman times were the only noteworthy aspects of this result so far. I should have added that my runs were on an Intel Core i5-750, and that it hasn't had any problems with GFAM/DSFL.

It was working on HCC where it validates OK. Paul.

Interesting, had missed any previous reports of some Intels going invalid too for the VINA sciences. Thanks for letting us know.

This BETA is running very good as far as I'm able to conclude. No Errors or Invalids.
----------------------------------------141 Valids 1 Inconclusive 65 Pendings 81 In Progress btw: what's beyond Sapphire  |
