The software that powers OpenPandemics - COVID-19 has been adapted to use GPU power. This will not only help the researchers to screen more molecules, but also could help them study molecules that are more complex.

How nice, let's rock.
---------------------------------------- Edit: But the demand seems extreme now. The download of the exe and the rest never starts, and it doesn't time out either it seems. Edit 2: Fixed it. Restarted BOINC, and the files downloaded. [Edit 2 times, last edit by Grumpy Swede at Apr 6, 2021 6:07:35 PM] |

I saw the "Tasks are committed to other platforms" lots of times during Beta.
----------------------------------------Edit, added: Well, these production WU's are indeed a bit tougher than the BETA WU's. They do take a little bit longer, and contains so far more "jobs" [Edit 1 times, last edit by Grumpy Swede at Apr 6, 2021 6:28:50 PM] |

Would be good if work units was bigger. 1-2 min is too short with RTX 3070 card.

@ Greger, just put more load on your card by running more WUs concurrently.
