Message 1700482 - Posted: 11 Jul 2015, 13:58:11 UTC - in response to Message 1700478.  

I grumbled a bit because they moved things around on the menu again and I had to hunt to find often used shut down client.

Under the File menu. :)

Blame me for the switch-around and remodeling/renaming of the menus. After adding several things and splitting off the add project and add account manager wizards into separate windows, the original menus were too cluttered and the original headings no longer held true for their contents.

So I complained about it, after which the developers, plus me and Jacob Klein sat down and showed each other what we thought the menus should look like, be named as etc. It's taken several test- and trial versions before we came on to the version out now.

And in general it works, though I still get taken aback every time I try to 'View' the event log, but find it's a 'Tool'.

Interesting how little CPU time the NVidia OpenCL tasks need - and I'm typing from the machine running the test, with no sign of screen lag either. I'd held back an extra core just in case (running five CPU tasks plus intel_gpu), but I think I can safely release that.

[Edit - verified it is an OpenCL app, Process Explorer shows threads running in nvopencl.dll

You can never be too sure about the plan_class name at MW]

In case of Einsten's low consumption puzzle was quite simple as I recall - 20ms or so predictable size kernels. With 20ms kernels one can safely sleep this time.
Has MW code to look at? If bigger kernels again it's not "interesting" at all.

To start my day here, I find that my xw9400, now running with BOINC v7.6.2, only coughed up one truncated Stderr last night, Task 4259104046. It's a typical truncation, not an empty Stderr, with the following contents:

Nothing to indicate a failure to delete/remove the stderr.txt file. It seems like this might indicate that truncated Stderr and empty Stderr result from slightly different behaviors. In S@h, of course, either one can lead to an Instant Invalid if it happens on an overflow with no Autocorrs.

The code is on github: https://github.com/Milkyway-at-home/milkywayathome_client

If the question is kernel size, then the answer becomes choosing a development platform that suits the granularity of the problem under consideration.

Message 1700525 - Posted: 11 Jul 2015, 16:24:44 UTC - in response to Message 1700407.  

One thing to add to the MW/Seti Priority mix, is that if you reach a state of overcommit at any point, then that is where the probability of the application/boincapi side of the weaknesses happening (at least) should become higher. Examples of the most extreme situation would involve full utilisation of the CPUs. This pressure occurs most with GPU tasks starting up and shutting down, on top of existing CPU tasks, then pile on the Boinc client recalculating/simulating its schedule, other housekeeping/network and possibly other system tasks going on.


Then I should be a perfect candidate for those conditions since I run SETI, MilkyWay and Einstein tasks concurrently on both of my GPUs. I also run 6 cores of 8 on the CPUs. The systems normally run the GPUs at 99% utilization and the CPUs between 65-95% utilization depending on what kind of tasks are on the cards. The Einstein and MilkyWay tasks use a lot less CPU than SETI. However I have noticed anytime a MW task is on the same card as running SETI tasks, then the SETI tasks take a lot longer to finish than normal. The MW tasks use more resources somewhere that hinder the SETI tasks. The problem could get worse if the MW devs actually release double sized tasks as they are proposing to make them run longer.

That's some tidy sources and structure actually. Nice to see no spaghetti code.

Yes I found it after a few clicks. So you are to blame ;-} ... I like the Tools menu. It makes sense to me the the Event Log is in that category. Just have to forget muscle memory when I try to stop the client. Should become second nature in a week or so I guess.

Probably not the next release, but the one after for multibeam will have substantially more control over the loading. (next release will just be higher load). Probably can't recommend defaults to push OpenCL tasks aside , but can at least look at showing what something a bit more refined can provide as far as reconfigurability goes. Sharing the devices nicely will eventually be the name of the game, though for now it's all still a bit wild west out there.

I make that slots 1, 2, 5 and 6 being recycled during the first third of that 96-second run, but nothing at all happened in the final minute. Where does that leave our timing theories?

Does any of that indicate the stderr disk file ever had content ?

If the question is kernel size, then the answer becomes choosing a development platform that suits the granularity of the problem under consideration.


It's granularity of algorithm and device used to run it, not "granularity of platform". I'm not sure that suggestion aspecially wrong one can become an "answer".

I accept the semantic correction. Granularity of algorithm, device, implementation, and runtime support libraries.

One thing to consider is that the event log might not be in the exact order of events happening, since there is always a group of events with the same timestamp.

No, no indication that I know of either way. We're probably having to head towards

int ACTIVE_TASK::copy_output_files()
(app_start.cpp, line 469)

copy_output_files();
(app_control.cpp, line 591)

res.stderr_out.append(buf);
(client_state.cpp, line 1845 - but that's in an error handler)

None of them point to any extra debug logging that might be available and helpful. And only the middle one might help identify how stderr.txt gets into the state structure ready for the report - I haven't fully unravelled that yet.

hmmm, could be winning.

that *possibly* would place the truncated with content version as terminated between the stderr buffer flush and it reaching disk, and the entirely blank one the time it would take to write that much data, earlier. To my mind the race still lies, after the flush, between the hard terminateprocess cancelleation, and the precedding flush (before which would have created the empty file, or cleared existing content, because that's what happens with a memory mapped file, it empties it on open for write)

Nothing much to go on there, either.

Edit - the first one (totally blank stderr) happened while I was out of the house for a walk. The second one happened while I was at the console, opening and searching a 38 MB stdoutdae.txt file, and loading about 40 source code files into Notepad++. I'm not very good at cleaning out my working environment after use...

Looking if I see any visual studio looking settings in the milkyway CMake files (not sure yet). Joe *might* have a tool on hand capable of ramming commode.obj into the existing exe as a brutal anon platform test....

[Edit:] I see hints in there that visual studio is supported in the makefiles, though that doesn''t dictate it was used for the stock build there.
