Otis, I want to thank you for all your help!

Let me if you ever need anything.

Any time bud.

And any chance I could get Martijn to give me some HCC to crunch to become reliable again... I didn't think about doing SC's method until his post... which was after I already moved.

[retro77]

So you didn't detach first when you changed accounts?

[werdwerdus]

So you didn't detach first when you changed accounts?

what they are speaking of is detaching without aborting the work units. but it appears he did abort the wus before he detached, so the wcg server considers his machine unreliable.

11,089 results in progress on my account. If we just assume 0.5 hours per results, that would be 231 days of work. Would get me to emerald plus 115 days. But 0.5 hours per result is probably a little low compared to reality but that is a quick and dirty calculation and I supposed it is worth something.

I put you on another device profile, so you should be getting some now.

[Snow Crash]

Now for the next un-Xtreme suggestion ... I think Otis already posted this but it bears repeating ... with werdwerdus and Martijn close but not quite over the line ... if you turn your clocks down the caches we do have will get more runtime which for the WCG badges is the only thing that matters. I've done that a little bit this morning so when the time comes for me to move off bluestang there will be more WUs for everyone else once my remaining WUs time out.

[Moo]

According to Boinctasks I still have 121 days worth on OU's account.

[Rob_B]

I will have a look at down clocking the 2600K a little.

But that will hurt. It has been running 100% loaded at 4,5 GHz from day one.

werdwerdus:

If you go My Grid> Results status then at the top right box select valid and the top left box select each rig in turn then note the rig name and the runtime for a wu.

If you then change the top right box to In Progress and for each rig in turn note the number of pages and multiply that number by 15

Changing the top right box to pending validation gets you the number of pendings for each rig in a similar way

You can now build a chart like bluestang's in post 334 which would be an far more accurate estimation

WE ALL WANT TO SEE THAT CHART !!

(if you don't have Office try the Kingsoft spreadsheet among others. There is a free version)

Snow, You want to move 1 of you rigs over to Martijn or werdwerdus? I think you could move HAL9008 over and we'll be just fine...what do you think?

EDIT: Forgot about Pending still out there from Otis...that about another 7+ days.

[OldChap]

Everybody: be aware of the completion dates for ALL of the cached wu's before jumping

Somebody please post the BEST procedure for jumping in clear concise steps

I was thinking about that early this morning before work but decided I would wait to see this morning's update ... I'll move HAL9005 tonight when I get home and may tune HAL9008 to use 1 less core (that werdwerdus dude is pushing me hard over at GPUGrid and I need a hair more CPU to really let my GPUs run at their best )

[OldChap]

Phew. Last part of exams done.... I'm getting too old for this sh**

75% < Oops, but it was enough for a pass
100% < Surprised
89% < Happy with that

Six months till the next one I think.

Haschoiz, werdwerdus, Martijn: How about a nice chart from each of you?

[retro77]

Can we get that spreadsheet emailed out? My username at gmail.com works.

[bluestang]

retro, just sent it to ya!

If anyone else wants it just post your email here or PM it to me and I'll shoot it out to ya.

Alright OC, well done.

Now relax and have a pint tonight!

[retro77]

Cache update is a lot easier now:

[bluestang]

Looks like HCMD Phase 2 might be next on the list to end.

[Rob_B]

Thanks for that list.

Down clocking the CPU does help. Lowered it from 4.5 GHz to 3.5 GHz and looking at the time it takes to complete a WU I gained about 5 days run time. And I need that too, as I didn't get any new WU's today. I have 97 days cached for haschioz and 21 for Origin_Unknown.

[OldChap]

I just posed a question on WCG about new rigs and getting work.

Meanwhile I have this:

[Origin_Unknown]

guys,

I'm upto 1:346:20:58:11 now. I'm sure by tomorrow lunchtime update ill be onto sapphire!

thanks dudes

[OldChap]

Great news.

I have to admit that after I jumped and did not get any work I started to wonder if I had jumped too soon.

[haschioz]

here it is. so as soon as i know how many wu will not make it in time (do any of you guys know if wcg is strict on the deadlines or if they still accept wus when they're less than a day late)
