I just caught the project splitting a few.

Interesting...........'there's something rotten in Denmark'..........???

Jord, what is the model of your time machine?

I think Denmark is UTC+1, so here on the east coast in the US (UTC-5), "tomorrow" happens in Denmark at 6PM for us. Happens at 3PM on the west coast.

Also, most (if not all) of Europe does day/month/year instead of how we in North America do it as month/day/year.

Yay time zones, right? :p




related: I had a small batch of APs that processed today that came in under the ETAs, making the remaining ETAs of the cache smaller and thereby increasing the amount of work requested in each request. Since it appears tons of people are trying to fill their caches, I'm finding it difficult to get successful work fetches. I know the feeder is usually empty, because I don't even get the red-text line saying that my app_info doesn't have entries for MB, it just says "project has no tasks available." I've been asking pretty much non-stop at 305-second intervals and I've managed to snag just two.

And then one task ran a bit long which adjusted what remains in the cache and cut the requested number of seconds down by about half. Oh well. I've still got about 7 days of cache left, so.... doesn't matter in the grand scheme.

That's correct. But I'm not Danish. :)

Why don't you send those tasks for AMD/ATI my way, then I'll tell the ones for Intel to go your way. :)

Weird these, we don't use homogeneous redundancy here at Seti, and all those tasks are OpenCL, so why can't they pair tasks on an AMD GPU with an Intel GPU?

That was actually my first intention for the post before I got distracted by the time warp........if both logs are correct how can one be stating tasks are available for the other chipset at the same time as the opposite is being entered in the other log???

I ran through another batch of heavily-blanked tasks, so it drove my estimates down to about 1/2 of what they should be. I ended up hitting the limit of tasks in progress. Once the estimates smooth out, that works out to ~17 days worth of cache. I think I'm set for a while.

I have been getting a good number of AP's for my GPU's since last night. But have not gotten a single AP for my CPU's. My MB cache for the CPU's ran dry earlier today. This is true for my 3 machines which run just AP when they are available. I don't understand why there would not be a mix of CPU and GPU work available.

Message 1741634 - Posted: 12 Nov 2015, 22:29:17 UTC - in response to Message 1741611.  

I see the same thing, I never get CPU tasks, until my GPU cache is full. Don't know why. And it is so hard to get a full cache to get CPU work.

I think it was Mark that said his is the opposite, CPU then GPU.

Even my downloads are GPU first, CPU second.

Only thing I can think of is the order of a config file that causes it, but which one?

Just moderate your cache settings, once Boinc stops asking for GPU work, the scheduler will fill your host with CPU work, then increase the cache setting.

But they I will never get a full cache for the GPU.

After you get enough CPU tasks then you have to start allowing GPU tasks. If they continue to split them you'll fill your GPU. Micromanaging is a PITA.

Lots of MBs to split before we see new APs being split.

Yes it is. That what I thought automation and computers were for. But I guess it takes someone managing the code to authorize the code work.

Again on this issue, I am receiving WUs for the CPU and the Haswell Intel GPU but nada for the nvidia GPU. That's on both Haswell CPUs. The Xeon machine on the other hand is receiving CPU and nvidia GPU work steadily....
