Is it just pot luck if an AstroPulse gets allcoated to the GPU or CPU?

Yep.
Although with most GPUs, they process WUs much faster than the CPU, so they'll be requesting work more often and so are more likely to get AP work than the CPU.

For @David@Home .... if you haven't done any tasks for an application yet, it takes 11 validated tasks of that type before your APR for the app to be calculated and your estimated times to completion to be fairly accurate.

And those must also have less than 10% blanking for them to qualify.

For a comparison my two i5 rigs @3.4GHz take around 4.5hrs while my 1060's take 20mins to complete such tasks.

Cheers.

Many thanks, my AstroPulse took around 5 hours 20 mins on the CPU.

Yep, just luck of the draw. ;-)

Cheers.

Any updates on RX480 fixes testing?

We're not gonna fight them. We're gonna transcend them.

Unfortunately no. Being attached to 10 GPU projects, I have had no success in getting the server to send me an AP task :(

... and still I fear, and still I dare not laugh at the Mad Man!

Queen - The Prophet's Song

Another AP run under way.
Didn't get any from the last one, doubt i'll get any this time either.

You greedy devil.

4 here so far.

Cheers.

Imagine my surprise, I've picked up 2!

Up to 18 now here.

Cheers.

Got one this time round. Will take a long time to get off the 4 day etimated time to complete which must be working against me downing more work as BOINC Manager will think my cache is full!

Still I got the 1% badge today, I must be right on the boundary RAC wise for silver/gold badge. Maybe I need to stop the 1% I give to the POGS project ;-)

And the kitties clawed in 32 so far!
Meow, kitties!

Up to 18 now here.

:-/
I've managed to pick up.... 2 more.


It looks like systems that have issues with general v8 work allocation when the Scheduler misbehaves also have problems picking up AP work it's available.

Got 11 so far.
Not to bad.

---

With each crime and every kindness we birth our future.

got 2 the last time, and this morning 2 other

---

Get 11 on one host, all allready crunched.

---

I didn't get any more after the 32 that I mentioned last night.
They should be coming to the top of my caches pretty soon.
Except for 3 of them that were issued to CPUs. They will take a bit to be crunched.

Meow.

The Linux machine;
single pulses: 1
repetitive pulses: 2
percent blanked: 0.00

Windows;
single pulses: 0
repetitive pulses: 0
percent blanked: 0.00

My Prediction; The Correct result will be Labeled Invalid while a False result will be entered into the Data Base.
Of course, I will be Robbed...but I'm use to it. I really shouldn't even bother, my machine actually loses points when it runs an AP instead of Arecibo tasks.

Well I wound up with 19 of them and the last 4 (CPU tasks) are in progress now.

Cheers.

Got 5 over three different rigs

I see that we are now doing '07 datasets with the new applications.
And they appear to have some unprocessed AP work as well.
Got a few of them coming in here!
9 so far this morning.

Meow!
