146 points in under 4-6 minutes. I wouldn't swap. Just wait -- it is coming to you all NV people.

Soon?
Please say "very soon."


Will 'pretty soon' do ? Probably will be spending today trying to find out if my Father's still in Turkey or not, but other than that plan was to escalate Several builds to wider testing ('advanced users' only, i.e those that know how to manually install applications and understand that 'not a general release' means a lot of extra care would be needed) , while some boincapi and older gen issues get ironed out.

I think 'pretty soon' would be enough. -- too late some would say :)

Damn.
Good luck with that.
Last i'd heard was Vimeo, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter & YouTube were all blocked, the internet was down or blocked in many areas, and the airports had been closed as was the Bosporus bridge. TV & radio stations were meant to be shut down, or reporting what the military told them too.
Email was still available, as were voice & SMS although apparently the networks were jammed solid with the increased traffic.
Meant to be lots of demonstrations occurring, but no major unrest at this stage.
Hope you hear from him soon.

Just read that there's meant to be some shooting/explosions in the vicinity of the parliament buildings.

Message 1802823 - Posted: 16 Jul 2016, 0:17:12 UTC - in response to Message 1802759.  


I'm currently running my own little home-grown VLAR rescheduler on each of my crunch-only machines as a scheduled task at user logon. After the rescheduling is completed, the routine then launches BOINC Manager (instead of having BM launch itself at startup).

Last evening, the rescheduler's log on my WinVISTA machine showed that 7 VLARs had been moved to the CPU. However, BOINC Manager was showing me that those 7 VLARs were still scheduled to run on the GPU.

I didn't have time to look into it then, but this morning I reviewed the BOINC Event Log and found a curious line:

7/14/2016 9:00:57 PM |  | Using state file client_state_next.xml


So, it seems that during BOINC startup, if it finds a client_state_next.xml file, it uses it to the exclusion of any client_state.xml file that exists. I think that makes sense since, assuming the client_state_next file is complete (and was cleanly closed before the previous BOINC shutdown), it would contain the most up-to-date client_state data.

Ultimately, that probably means that any alterations made to a client_state.xml file (while BOINC is shut down, of course), whether for rescheduling or any other purpose, should only be performed when a client_state_next.xml file doesn't currently exist. Food for thought! :^)



. . Definitely worth noting.

see this for an example. And my inconclusives is falling at the same rate my valids are increasing. An error or two with (tens of) thousands a day is a ...

Please, do not take this too seriously. The improvements are coming. I'm going -- to sleep.

. . That is what I like, a definite answer. LOL

. . BTW, we shared a WU recently and your 970 knocked it over in less than 4 mins. How do you get it to work so well? Running foursies on my 970 the best times are 6 to 7 mins per WU (24 to 28 mins actual runtime), and yours seemed to be a singles time. Just an observation.
