Yup, information died with the end of the stress test.
----------------------------------------And so did all GPU tasks it seems. It was hard to get GPU tasks before the stress test, but now it's totally impossible. I have tried since the stress test ended, but with no luck at all. So, my second GPU cruncher goes offline now too. [Edit 2 times, last edit by Grumpy Swede at May 6, 2021 10:06:56 PM] |

Thanks Grumpy Swede. All the more for those of us left standing ;-)

I'm finding that if I just let it randomly grab GPU work units when they're available, I'm generally getting enough to more than double my daily points. So, really, I can't complain, especially since that system is my primary cruncher. Sure, the numbers were downright insane during the stress test (especially for anyone who ran multiple tasks), but it's going to be a challenge to keep the pipe full for any length of time.
Sometimes I might poke the server and rarely dislodge a few OPNGs, but BOINC is doing a good job on its own most of the time. |

Not much luck for the kitties today. They haven't snagged an OPNG into their kibble bowl for nigh on 7 hours now. But they'll keep trying.

Hmm, why do we still have a 3-day deadline on the new non stress test WU's?

What i am hoping for is that they will increase the work units for OPNG or World Community Grid can come up with a new project that uses GPU sometime in the near future.

It takes a while until the hardware is expanded. Folding@home is supported by AWS.

Hmm, why do we still have a 3-day deadline on the new non stress test WU's? See this post by uplinger, where is stated: "We are going to be making some changes to the work units that are being sent out. (…) The changes we are making is setting the deadlines to 3 days instead of 7 days that have been previously sent out. All new work downloaded will have the 3 day deadline. (…) This allows us to start seeing where a steady state with a 3 day deadline is at, (…)" Note the last two sentences: "All new work downloaded will have the 3 day deadline" and "This allows us to start seeing where a steady state with a 3 day deadline is at". So it may be lasting until a new decision is made. [Edit 1 times, last edit by adriverhoef at May 8, 2021 12:21:27 PM] |

But maybe you're right, and it was something that was going to apply also after the stress test. |
