Re: Quiet (Too Quiet) on the SN2S Front

Thanks for the update. Why not start an ongoing thread entitled something like: "Tech Updates" or "Current ops" or Grid Tech's Blog" where you could post these kind of details. I understand the downsied: You might say something like "new GPU WUs being considered" and you get all kinds of heat from those that went out a bought new hardware and are disappointed when the WUs are delayed. But I still think it would make some of us feel more included in what you do for us. I know it would be the first thread I'd check.

Thanks again.

I think a blog is a great thought and would allow a bit of communication in both directions (assuming comments are allowed). There are times when it feels like things are kind of left in the wind. I think it would be great if there was some kind of weekly or semi-weekly update on the projects and where WCG is and where it is heading. Even if there isn't much to report it at least shows interest from the scientists and WCG. That could provide a lot of the useful information that sometimes gets buried in the forums.

Thank you for the update uplinger. It is much appreciated and hopefully more units from SN2S and new projects start appearing soon. Updates like this mean a lot even if not many people comment back.

Re: Quiet (Too Quiet) on the SN2S Front

Greetings again,

Sorry to leave everyone on the edge of how much work and why is it still intermittant. So let me fix that :)

We have some work from the researchers, by some I mean that if we were to run this project at FULL weight, meaning i would get about 45% of the grid, then the work would last only 3 weeks. So, we have put this at a lower weight than FA@H, but if you have only SN2S selected, then you should be able to get work. If you have both, then the odds of you getting SN2S over the FAAH work would be about 1:20 ratio if not worse, since those who only have sn2s would pull from the feeder first.

Why is it still intermittant, because there is a larger pool of work units in the works and we hope to have those before this smaller group runs out. By leaving it intermittant it was our hopes that the members hopes (yes too many hopes in a sentence) wouldn't plan for steady work just in case the larger set of work comes after we run out. We didn't want to tease you into thinking a steady set of work would be available when we don't have our hands on the larger set of work.

Next question that will come, How much larger is the next set of work. This is an unknown right now. My personal opinion is months if not years of work. Again that is my opinion but without having our hands on the work I can not give you a certain answer.

Thanks,
-Uplinger


Thanks, Uplinger:

SN2S is my sole WCG project at present and I am getting enough work to keep all 8 cores on my FX-8350 busy. When HCC starts again, I will be ready with seven GPUs.

Re: Quiet (Too Quiet) on the SN2S Front

The website has been redesigned in the recent past and URL has changed(the old one in the research page redirects to the new one).

Just waiting for science update...

Re: Quiet (Too Quiet) on the SN2S Front

Has the temporary supply dried up?, as I haven't received any new work for quite some time now...

Re: Quiet (Too Quiet) on the SN2S Front

A snip quote by uplinger of August 3

"We have some work from the researchers, by 'some' I mean that if we were to run this project at FULL weight, meaning it would get about 45% of the grid, then the work would last only 3 weeks"

Today is August 7.

Re: Quiet (Too Quiet) on the SN2S Front

Yes, I've now received some more WU's - just as Murphy predicted, post a comment, and then, two minutes later, the issue is resolved biggrin

Re: Quiet (Too Quiet) on the SN2S Front

Here is their latest paper on the research from their site. It dated from June 2013.
