The participant name says it all
RapidVideo SETI@Business Video Cloud Processing Cluster

https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/show_user.php?userid=8418913

If I am not confused that person is listing 330+ computers. All are pretty much poking along at 5,000 RAC's. So there is a very impressive total RAC.

Tom

Look at their site "An amazing Video Cloud platform". More like a company than a person.
But that is good, adds a lot processing power to the project.

no different than user 'antony', who at one point had over 500 computers (near identical) and was not far behind W3Perl for volume.

Greetings,

5 Days to do 1 Astropulse WU??? I know it's on my laptop and I know that it only has a dual core Pentium processor, but 5 days??? I haven't seen WUs take that long since my 486 took a week to do one.

Please let me know if I should let the laptop go ahead and process it or if I should abort it. I believe the 5 days falls well before the deadline.

Have a great day! :)

Siran

[edit]
Also, am I able to specify the use of the SETI app only and not the Astropulse app?

Has it been 5 days already? Nothing in that link shows any kind of time period of 5 days.

you can exclude AP WUs in your preferences on the website. just uncheck the box for it.

Hi Ian,

It's be 1 day 15 hours running so far with 3 days 22 hours to go. Ok, so more like 5.5 days, not 5 days. ;)

I just want to stop the laptop from doing Astropulse, not all my machines.

Have a great day! :)

Siran

[edit]
I've looked at the configurations options list and don't see anything that tells me I can <exclude_this_app>0 / 1</exclude_this_app>. Obviously I just made that up just for clarity I guess. ;)

what percentage has it completed in that 1day15hrs? the estimated remaining can be off, especially if the host hasnt returned much work of that type.

you can do that. use one of the other location profiles like "school" or "work". setup that profile to not take AP WUs (uncheck the box), then set that host to that location in your host detail page.

Hi Ian

38% and it's the first Astropulse to hit the laptop.

you can do that. use one of the other location profiles like "school" or "work". setup that profile to not take AP WUs (uncheck the box), then set that host to that location in your host detail page.
Ok, kind of a work-around, I can do that. I edited my previous post when you were posting this, with info about looking at the configuration options.

Thanks Ian and have a great day! :)

38% in about 39 hours would equal slightly less than 1% completed per hour or slightly more than 100 hours to complete.
That seems about normal run time for that CPU.

Estimates are way off until 11 non blanked Astropulse tasks have been completed and validated.

Hi Fan,

Well, I'm not going to wait a minimum of 2.5 months for SETI to figure out the best processing estimates for AP tasks on that laptop. That's if I get 11 continuous AP tasks. I fixed it so the laptop won't get any more APs. That laptop is 13 years old and I would like to get as much out of it, for SETI, that it can do before it croaks. ;)

Have a great day! :)

I had to do a double take there. I didn't know any Kepler GPUs had a CC of 5.0. and at 45W TDP. That's wild.

But I see you are still running the v0.97 Special app. you might (should) see a speed boost moving to the newest version of the app, which is 0.98b1.

That K620 has a GM107 core so that makes it a Maxwell based GPU with a few extras turned on. ;-)

[edit] But it's nice to know that each of my 1060's kill the pair of them. :-D

Cheers.

Thanks for the clarification. Still a bit out of the norm for nvidia’s naming scheme. Quadro K series were mostly all Kepler, M series maxwell, P series Pascal, etc.

I don't know why not as long as you have installed updated drivers that recognize the card.

Suspend crunching, install the card, update the drivers, reboot as necessary, check that the new drivers are installed, check the BOINC log that the card & new driver version are recognised, re-enable crunching.

Greetings All

Well I this might be a as the subject of this thread states.

I recently did a search on my username, cause I remember running the Seti Classic workunits back in 2002 / 2003, cause I remember the running the Screensaver.

I found a couple of matches that was me, but the problem is that they were that long ago, I don't remember the passwords, hell the machine they crunched on was destroyed back in 2005 (I think)

Does this mean there is no avenue to either merge them or claim them back???

I even remember doing some workunits back in 1999/2000, cause I can correlate to where I was and what I was doing, but for the life of me I cannot remember my ever first username. Dead End for that one.

Any pointers would be helpful.

On second thoughts, I know they are my usernames, but that is all I can go on, so thats probably not enough proof.

Cheers

You can merge duplicate computer IDs within a given username, in certain circumstances, but I'm not aware of any mechanism for merging usernames.
