I’ve been getting about 750-1000 per day pretty consistently.

My intel GPUs are so slow, that they still have work. AMD GPU runs out of work every now and then, but NVIDIA is mostly idle.

@Andrew80431 how did you set your system to check for new WUs ever five minutes? I have gone through both BOINC APP and WCG settings and I cannot find anything related. I must be missing something. I have not been able to get any of the GPU WUs now for about 5 days.

It is on purpose to generate no WUs for Nvidia GPUs to prevent server overload.

The servers were handling many times the work being generated now after the servers were tuned during the stress test. It's just that they are generating such a meager amount right now that it is spread very thin among the large number of nvidia GPUs on the project. The kitties claw and claw and meow at the servers, but lately it seems that they can only get work for their little GPU kibble bowl every 3-4 hours most of the time, and sometimes it's only a few at a time. Pretty rare right now to get a good solid batch of GPU work. Even with the slow GTX980 that the kitties are playing with, most times all the work they get is done and the GPU is idling long before they are able to get any more. At least, that's the view from here in kittyland. Meeeeeeeeeeow  |

By limiting the number of generated WUs, server overload can also be avoided.
GeForce GTX 980 was launched in September 2014. |

Auto requests can be done in Linux using cron.
----------------------------------------crontab -e will open a template member in nano editor with comments. In windows there is a scheduler, I have not used this but others have examples in other threads, e.g. for HSTB & ARP1. Paul.

Running very low on intel GPU WUs. Only couple of WUs in buffer.

Most Boinc-Projects have a delay now, to stop flooding requests.
----------------------------------------Why is it so important to get a better performance for GPU-Work by flooding the Server of WCG with requests? There are a lot of Volunteers waiting in a normal response to get GPU-Work!
