Re: Work unit availability

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.

Re: Work unit availability

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

On what hardware does WCG run? Since WCG is supported by IBM and they have a cloud solution as well.

Re: Work unit availability

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.

Thanks!
I interpreted that post of his, that it only was during the rest of the stress test. But maybe you're right, and it was something that was going to apply also after the stress test.

Re: Work unit availability

I turned on my main cruncher to see what, if anything, I could get. The result is mostly nothing for the GTX980, but the iGPU HD4600, is getting lots of resends with short deadlines, from failing iGPU's. Mostly WU's from the stress test, but also from the "normal" production. It seems to be plenty of them out there too, and they keep coming in.

Small example only:
OPNG_0037577_00041_3
OPNG_0028618_00009_3
OPNG_0040717_00108_2
OPNG_0038777_00005_3
OPNG_0037322_00146_4
OPNG_0007652_00049_3
OPNG_0037328_00079_4
OPNG_0037319_00250_4
OPNG_0007652_00359_3
OPNG_0037340_00089_4

Re: Work unit availability

... It seems to be plenty of them out there too, and they keep coming in.

I can confirm.
My PC with at GTX980ti inside, the one with a GTX970 and another one with a GTX1650 keep getting tasks several times per hour.
Most unfortunately though, the main cruncher with 2 RTX3070 inside gets tasks only once in a while. And if so, just a few ones at at time, while the other machines receive up to 20 or 30 at at time.
Is there any explanation for this strange imbalance ?
