Looks like Muddy101 was off the grid today, thats ~400,000 or so less than normal. And numbers were low across the board today, typical Saturday reporting.

Still a good day for the team :up:

After the servers crashed a few weeks ago, everyone built up a large number of work units pending validation.

It's now down to less than 30 pages.

We were averaging 11-11.5 million a day a month ago. We've been averaging around 12.5 million over the past several days. So our numbers are up.

How often do they update stats? F@H was every hour and EOC was every 3. I've been crunching for 16 hours and the numbers look like I'm running a single P-3. :confused:

GPUgrid is looking good with over 60K. :)
11-01-2010, 09:58 AM
sierra_bound

WCG point stats for individuals are updated twice a day. Team stats are updated once daily. BOINC stats are usually updated four times a day.

The last BOINC team update was 636,632 for a quarter-day's work. That's a huge number. It translates into roughly 4.46 million WCG points. There once was a time when it took us the entire day to get that many points. Each BOINC point is worth about 7 WCG points.
11-01-2010, 10:05 AM
OldChap

I don't remember if it is 3 or 4 times a day :shrug: ..the other thing here is the quorum effect ...each piece of work gets done by at least 2 computers so that the result can be validated...you don't get your points till the second computer is finished...there is a good chance though that one of us with the bigger better faster machines is your wu buddy so it should not take too long :)

Great to see you here Wfo

Thanks guys. :up: I finally found what I was looking for in Advanced view/Show running tasks. I was was expecting projects to be run like the smps at Stanford. Boinc is actually running 1 project per thread on each machine. As a result there are some rather long completion times. It'll probably take 48 hours to get a real idea of total ppd.
11-01-2010, 11:20 AM

Yes, it usually takes a few days to get a better idea of your daily point average. Some projects like HFCC and FAAH have no quorum system (technically a quorum of one), so you get credit right away. Other projects like HPF2 have a very large quorum. If you're planning on crunching for just a week, you might want to choose the projects with no quorum.

Does the system have to be running by midnight tonight to count towards this weeks totals?

I just have to find someplace local to get some fittings and tube, and I could have my new system running tonight. I have no case, or even a bench to run it on for that matter, but I could at least power it up.

Anyone in Phoenix? or know of someplace in Phoenix where I could get G1/4 fittings and tube?

Just for note, it's a q6600 and a 5870, so it should help the total numbers

The old line: If I had my druthers" what I'd love to see is 100 million in a day.
Xs is capable of it but unfortunately the vast majority here won't do it even for just a week.
I know this and I think we all do.
It's a shame but it's also reality so we live with it.
Now for me I do think 30mil is doable but what will make me smile is seeing one day, just one piddly little day with team 2channel in the #2 spot on the dailies.
I'll do a screen cap of that and may have a print made and framed!:p:

The day they develop an efficient GPU client for WCG is the day XS will rise head and shoulders over 2CH and all other teams. Unfortunately, I don't think it's in the cards... not for a looooong time.

GPU programming is very different than CPU programming. Add to that the issues of constantly changing language support (CUDA v OpenCl(?) ) and hardware and you have a very complicated development environment. The notion of programming and running arbitrary code on video cards is still quite new, so getting your head around the the massively parallel GPU is a real challenge.

It shouldn't take longer time than this one, I guess the problem is the lack of common standers and disagreement between AMD/ATi and nVidia. Besides, Intel doesn't want this thing at all, they don't like competition for CPUs. All this (and some other issues too) makes the future of GPGPU a bit shaky and unsecure.

Nobody wants to spend time on developing a application that can become obsolete in near future. Otherwise, GPGPU is the future of HPC and supercomputers, only if these guys could agree and move on.

I agree fully. Even if they can only get 10% of the GPU's potential, it'll be well-worth their time and energy. My HD3850 does a theoretical 427 GFLOPs; even 10% of that (42.7 GFLOPS) would be more performance than all 6 cores I have online right now.
11-03-2010, 02:51 PM
Sam_oslo

Yeah, They should start working on GPGPU, maybe they are doing so already. A high-end GPU can eat 10 high-end CPUs for lunch in these kind of tasks (parallel computing).

I don't know why these guys are waiting, exactly, but I know others having concerns about changing standards and such. CUDA and ATI Stream are "closed" and both been evolving/changing too. OpenCL is a common and open standard, but it is very young one, and it's still a bit shaky. On top of this, Intel have been trying to sabotage/delay all these, and will do the same in the future too, I guess.

Some people are insecure what kind of platform, SW, standards, etc they should choose, because this a very young field, and all standards are changing/evolving rapidly. And all major plays are fighting each other too.

They should hire students and ask them to get something running for GPU clients. I don't think CUDA/Stream are going anywhere fast, but they have the potential to make the field a lot more lucrative by supporting it themselves.

I've realized that it will be very hard since each sub-project from WCG are on its own.

For example, C4CW is from Tsinghua University in China while HFCC is from Chiba University in Japan.
