Hm. They are all sitting in "Pending validation" with both me and wingman having returned the result... This is why.  "Patience is a virtue", I can't wait to learn it! |

What's your Write to disk setting? 900 Soooo, to snip an example of a skip, it took less than 900 second to get from 75000 to 76000, and the log confirms it then skips per your settings, the next checkpoint was longer away from 75000 to 77000, thus it checkpoints when asked if allowed to. [02:46:35] INFO: Checkpointed. Progress 75000 of 100000 steps complete CPU time 32965.046875 [02:55:35] INFO: Checkpoint skipped. Progress 76000/100000 CPU time 33436.562500 [03:04:29] INFO: Checkpointed. Progress 77000 of 100000 steps complete CPU time 33908.312500 Think that's the answer. To continue on the checkpoint skipping analysis, this one for uplinger: What happens if the at 80,000 petehardy's 900 seconds are not up... is the app then programmed to force a trickle/write? In the exampled log, it looks like the WtD interval happens to give a cadence of checkpointing every 2%, so it falls on the 10K steps, but what if a setting works to skip an uneven number 3%, 6%, 9% et cetera? Suspect you hardcoded, an enforced 10K checkpointing interval/trickle. |

Memory use is between 190 and 340 MiB, which is also fine for me. Memory use may be platform dependent. The 6 that run on my W7-64 for now over 24 hours peaked so far at 101MB [Task Manager] I run the WUs under Linux, but it would seem surprising that the memory use would vary so wildly from one OS to the next. To me a WU dependent memory use would seem more likely, after all 190 and 340 MiB is also nearly a factor of 2... |

Think about this one: Virtual Memory. Was it used by the app on Linux?
----------------------------------------Here's the log on results from W8 and W7, last two columns (every second row) the RAM and VM use. Note the very high efficiency, eyeballing, 99.59 was best on the crunch-only W8, 95-96 on the heavily used W7 i.e. the VM shuff off did not hamper performance in any noticeable way. 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r0_1ax_0 23:48:22 (23:42:30) 7/31/2015 10:48:16 AM 7/31/2015 10:49:29 AM 99,59 Reported: OK + 3113135 91.57 MB 133.02 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r11_1fd_1 22:42:21 (22:36:31) 7/30/2015 7:13:10 PM 7/30/2015 7:15:16 PM 99,57 Reported: OK + 3113135 85.64 MB 127.06 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r11_1fs_0 22:06:10 (21:59:42) 7/30/2015 7:44:06 PM 7/30/2015 7:45:07 PM 99,51 Reported: OK + 3113135 86.29 MB 127.86 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r15_1ao_1 22:23:04 (22:17:26) 7/30/2015 7:20:19 PM 7/30/2015 7:22:16 PM 99,58 Reported: OK + 3113135 86.70 MB 128.25 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r15_1bh_1 22:27:06 (22:20:28) 7/30/2015 7:24:20 PM 7/30/2015 7:25:06 PM 99,51 Reported: OK + 3113135 86.70 MB 128.24 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r1_1ek_1 23:42:53 (23:35:26) 7/30/2015 8:13:48 PM 7/30/2015 8:16:08 PM 99,48 Reported: OK + 3113135 91.84 MB 133.17 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r3_1co_1 01d,00:21:50 (01d,00:14:33) 7/30/2015 10:52:59 PM 7/30/2015 10:55:47 PM 99,50 Reported: OK + 3113135 92.60 MB 133.87 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r8_1fx_1 20:45:34 (20:40:17) 7/31/2015 3:59:18 PM 7/31/2015 4:01:56 PM 99,58 Reported: OK + 3113135 86.68 MB 128.21 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r16_1cb_1 01d,07:41:54 (01d,06:20:01) 7/31/2015 3:15:57 PM 7/31/2015 3:16:38 PM 95,69 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 85.44 MB 126.54 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r17_1ah_0 01d,06:43:39 (01d,05:53:27) 8/1/2015 12:20:03 PM 8/1/2015 12:21:31 PM 97,28 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 85.18 MB 126.30 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r19_1ef_0 01d,07:44:17 (01d,06:02:50) 7/31/2015 4:00:12 AM 7/31/2015 4:01:08 AM 94,67 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 85.65 MB 126.78 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r1_1aa_0 01d,09:35:37 (01d,08:26:24) 8/1/2015 1:17:03 PM 8/1/2015 1:17:24 PM 96,57 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 90.31 MB 131.57 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r2_1ck_1 01d,09:38:34 (01d,08:42:09) 8/1/2015 1:38:48 PM 8/1/2015 1:40:26 PM 97,21 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 90.50 MB 131.79 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r4_1dj_1 01d,09:57:39 (01d,08:52:00) 8/1/2015 3:43:52 PM 8/1/2015 3:45:12 PM 96,78 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 89.13 MB 130.47 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r5_1du_1 01d,07:19:24 (01d,05:49:05) 7/31/2015 3:37:26 AM 7/31/2015 3:38:08 AM 95,19 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 85.93 MB 127.04 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r5_1eg_1 01d,07:15:04 (01d,05:41:28) 7/31/2015 5:36:23 AM 7/31/2015 5:36:53 AM 95,01 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 85.86 MB 127.00 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r5_1fn_1 01d,09:28:02 (01d,07:48:42) 7/31/2015 5:46:10 AM 7/31/2015 5:48:54 AM 95,05 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 89.36 MB 130.54 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r5_1fq_0 01d,07:26:42 (01d,05:32:14) 7/31/2015 3:44:45 AM 7/31/2015 3:45:08 AM 93,93 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 85.50 MB 126.46 MB 7.09 beta21 BETA_avx101118-005_r5_1fv_0 01d,06:52:35 (01d,05:40:14) 8/1/2015 9:01:26 AM 8/1/2015 9:02:51 AM 96,09 Reported: OK + 2372334_2751017 85.64 MB 126.83 MB [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Aug 2, 2015 12:44:23 PM] |

I posted earlier (Jul 29, 2015 11:24:27 PM) Pic shows lesser use on V2 (that is e5-26xx V2) the others are v1. This doesn't rule out differences in wu's but.... All linux by the way  |

I was only able to snag 1 - took over 50 hours to run on my slow computer - waiting for more on my i7

All linux by the way Whatever you wish to or not to rule out, now looking further right in that posted image [the discussion was the CPU/Elapsed relation] https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewpostinthread?post=498171 the Memory but moreso the Virtual is wonky, at least, the 2587.2... supposed to indicate MBs? Off the wall. Was it MB Virtual? If so, that can't be right and would need more [tech] investigation and confirmation of the numbers in that virtual column. (not sure, but think job_log_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.txt in the BOINC data dir now holds memory info too for latest clients [7.6]. Not spend time understanding the data in there. |
