Good news would also be when doubling the cpu time after suspend (LAIM off) or BOINC restart is fixed too. I don't take the risk to test that yet. Will do tomorrow morning when they are at 90%  The double CPU fix was implemented in version 7.14 of the application. So we should be good from that standpoint. Thanks, -Uplinger I suspended 2 tasks running wcgrid_beta21_bedam_7.14_windows_intelx86.exe (LAIM off) at their 90% progress checkpoint. After resume the run times between 2 checkpoints are similar to the run times before the suspend.  |

We have just created the 2nd generation of the work units. There will be a few noticeable changes from the way they were named in the past. The work units may not have the wcgfahb identifier at the end of the file name.
For exmple, if a first generation had a name like this: BETA_FAHB_avx38783-ls_000057_0015_001 then it's 2nd generation most of the time will look like this: BETA_FAHB_avx38783-ls_000057_0015_002 The last 3 digits will determine how far along in the simulation it is. This will allow for the input file to change slightly from step 1 to step 3 million. Note: if a grouping of 100k is not met, then members will see wcgfahb00200000 added, this lets you know you are continuing from where another member left off in that group of 100k steps. Thanks, -Uplinger |

[ot]OET, their's something weird about the progress percent on Linux. We have 8 checkpoints, but progress goes in fixed steps of 10%. Opposed on Windows progress is incremented continuous in small steps. Tried with 7.2.42 and 7.6.7, with and without <fraction_done_exact/> config setting, no difference.[/ot] A little off topic for the beta forum, but I also noticed this in OET, except for the first 10%. During that time it increments in the decimal thousandths space until 10%, then by increments of 10% after that. Cheers

Haven't been following this thread but somehow managed to snag five betas. Four errored out but the last one was valid. These are the five I got:

The results will have a 4 day deadline. If someone does not start it by the 3rd day, then we tell them to stop. This gives members a chance to do work and have their machine off over the weekend. Not much of a chance for a machine that's off on a weekend. I'm seeing total time estimates in days not hours for these, so that 4-day deadline looks pretty tight for machines that are not running constantly and/or fast. |

Indeed the new batch of beta WUs seems to be OK.
----------------------------------------However there are still some problems with the estimated duration.
At this time, additional beta WUs are still being computed on additional hosts. The other problem is similar to the August 25th batch, the granted credit are still inaccurate at least for Linux based hosts; with the current beta batch: 422 points for nearly 30 hours (based on OET1 contribution, it should be about 590 points for 29.5 hours). Cheers, Yves |

I was about to write that the size of the unit wouldn't make any difference if everyone received credit for work done up to the deadline. But that got me to thinking about the effect on the results returned rankings and how some people may be put off crunching 4 day units if their ranking position mattered to them. So it may be necessary to reduce the size for comparability in run time with other science WU.
----------------------------------------Then a thought struck me, if credit is given for partial results how do you stop someone from gaming the system to make themselves look awesome by artificially bumping up their results returned count through taking a pile of units, crunching for 35 mins, then aborting the unit(or suspending it until past the deadline) to crunch other units, Would these partial units then get credited same as a fully crunched unit in the results returned stats? I think the fairest answer would be to give a pro-rata credit on partial results returned e.g. 0.1 result, 0.4 result etc. edit:typo [Edit 1 times, last edit by widdershins at Sep 23, 2015 7:24:35 AM] |
