I will be aborting any NOELIA long WUs on my WinXP rig ... I've had a few that perform miserably on WinXP but seem to be OK on Win7 and/ or Linux.

Those Noelia tasks do seem to push the limits of driver/hardware reliability :up:
It's odd in that on WinXP SP3 32 it runs without error but is super super slow compared to runtimes on any other OS. Doubly odd is that typically we see better performance on WinXP for GPUGrid than Win7. I've taken my GTX 295 out of service (anyone interested can PM me) and just need to find the time to reformat/ install Win7. Heck I should probably replace my i7920 D0 with a 6 core variant of 1366 (but I can't seem to find a cheap used chip) and get another GTX 670 ... that should hold me over until haswell gets released :D
Terrible week for points, some of these new tasks are running 70% gpu or less. I even had a couple tasks take over 40 hours to complete on my GTX 470!
Looks like you've been chewing up on the BETAs ... there's good science in them but they never point any where near what you can get with running LONGs.
More work units with low gpu utilizatin. I have one of the PAOLA long runs going at only 46% utilization on my GTX 470 :(
Yes, it's unfortunate ... I hate doing it but I'm now aborting the new PAOLA WUs also.
Yesterday i had one of this PAOLA and my 670 did 14 hours to complete it. It was at 45% gpu usage. Since then i only have normal 4h work units. How do you abort a WU? You just click on it and click cancel?
Click on it and then click the Abort button in the left panel.Quote:
