I don't think POEM has as much staff/budget as HCC has to supply millions of tasks a day like HCC has been.

I don't think POEM has as much staff/budget as HCC has to supply millions of tasks a day like HCC has been.
IMHO something fishy has been going on at POEM for quite a while. Crunchers in the projects' home country could get 7+million boinc credits per day while I couldn't get enough tasks to keep 1 7770 busy 24/7. :shrug: When SETIUSA was closing in on PD3N to take first place in overall credit all of a sudden P3DNs' production tripled. Makes me wonder.
Good News!!

"The researchers have identified additional batches for this project which need to be run (and weren't included in the original 25 day estimate). I'm in the process of getting them loaded into BOINC and should be able to provide a more accurate estimated number of days left once this is complete. At minimum though, there should be more than five days left of work before we exhaust the supply of non-resend work units.

Good news!
I wondered. My queue has only barely a handful of resends, everything else is new stuff.

Looks like I'm the only XS member working POEM.
Updated OP with new estimation. Thanks, Bill P.
I can't remember where I saw that but it was on HCC forums... they were working on ``number 11 batch``... which would be available in early may... so that would mean a lot more work...
That post was for the Help Fight Childhood Cancer project, not Help Conquer Cancer which is estimated to only have 3 days for downloading new work.
HFCC isn't for GPU, but I'm looking forward to crunch those wu's.:)
We must be getting pretty close to the end. Except for some repair WUs, I'm seeing a constant stream of:
4/27/2013 1:38:31 PM Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks
4/27/2013 1:38:31 PM No tasks sent
4/27/2013 1:38:31 PM Tasks are committed to other platforms
4/27/2013 1:38:31 PM Tasks for CPU are available, but your preferences are set to not accept them
That should only be temporary until the next set is loaded (typically happens fairly quickly). The WCG techs are pretty good with their estimates and they are targeting another couple of days of new work being distributed.
I did however stuff my caches to the gills so blame it on me if you think any one of us makes that much of a difference :rofl:
<edit> and new work is flowing again (I'm in EST so this was at 9:05 PM UTC)</edit>

I see they're flowing again. I just sat down and did my normal "how's everything running" check and noticed those messages on every PC. I obviously jumped to the wrong conclusion.
However, I am getting many, many more repair WUs today.
I'm at 500 pages of work in progress. I think that is the max?
15 WU per page * 3000 pages = 45000 / 7500 per card = 6 cards (min) :eek:
unless of course you've played the "slow card shuffle* where you temporarily add a second slow card to a fast rig to bump the total number of WUs it can download and then move the slow card to another rig ... rinse and repeat :up:
Slow card shuffle? Now would I actually do something like that? :rolleyes: Sounds like way to much work. Set and (basically) forget for me. I do have 1 dual card rig running 2 7770s but I played with the min/max cache settings until I could keep the amount in there to around 7500 +/- 100. For some reason if I allowed more than that I would get continuous PITA upload issues on that machine only that I was never able to resolve. I would have loved to store up 15,000 on one machine but it wasn't worth the hassle. BoincTasks had enough lag managing 7500. :yepp: The other 5 rigs are single 7970s.
Final estimate:
So the end is May-1Quote:
All remaining work for the project is now loaded into BOINC and there are now about 2.5 days of non-resend work remaining for this project.

damn haha, I needed 4 days to catch Movieman......
Thanks for the update!
