My guess is 12000 feets. We could use a ground radar to trace.

He still has 15 APs to clear. At around 700 or so a day, it will be even lower...


This was my Windows 8 Host when it ran out of APs and switched to MBs;

OK, Sten I think you will level out at 5,000 feet.

I'm not going to abort this MB only trial. I'll stay with it until it levels off, no matter where I end up. I'm going down, until I reach the bottom (ground).

You are a brave man.

From 35818 feet, to 5000 feet, going from 100% AP to 100% MB...
We'll see :-)

Granted credits for MB in the last 24 hours sum to 7786.2. I predict that blimp you're calling a parachute will achieve equilibrium in that range.

This thread reminds me - I really must get the Round Tuit out of the draw and get my main cruncher's GPUs working on APs as well as MBs......

Yes, it's possible that 100% MB will only give me 20-22% of the credits I get when running 100% AP. CreditNew strikes hard again :-)
Now at 23,528.64 feet (RAC). Already lost 12290 feet (RAC) since March 6th.

As I type, Sten's avatar shows RAC 23,835 so he's hit a small up-draft. If I was a gambling man, I'd go for somewhere in the 12,000 - 15,000 range.

In my case a MB only pais 28% compared to an AP so I guess Sten will open his 'chute at 9800 feet !

It'd a bit funny how slow it is dropping. As I have seen a drops of 6-12k over a shorter period when nothing seems to have changed.

Simply the name of this is: RESHEDULING.

There where very "intensive" negotiations in the forums about that in the last weeks.

HD5 perhaps.

I am running HD5 now, (MB7_win_x86_SSE_OpenCL_ATi_HD5_r2033.exe). As I said, I will try HD4 when things level off.


Its just slower.

Well, no harm in trying. I would not be surprised if it is faster on this computer. We'll see, once I reach the bottom with this app.

You could always install Linux, then try the Linux version of OpenCL Multibeam v7 HD5 r1844. I was thinking about doing that the next time I ran out of APs. From the looks of it, we might be out for a while the way they keep loading more channels, http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/sah_status.html. I don't think I've ever seen that many channels loaded. Are they stress testing something or what?

Well, perhaps there is some new OpenCL build i'm not aware of. AFAICT there is no such app as "HD4".
