Posted 10 Jun 2013 by Borgholio Post: It says I need to install the bug catch version. Will this prevent me from updating automatically from the play store later? Edit - installed the bugcheck version. The buttons for sending or saving the logs are greyed out. |

Posted 9 Jun 2013 by Borgholio Post: Seti v7 keeps crashing out on my Galaxy S3. Out of a dozen workunits sent, only two successfully completed. I have tried detaching and re-attaching the project, as well as fully re-installing BOINC. No luck. Other projects seem to work fine. |

Posted 8 Jun 2013 by Borgholio Post: So version includes auto correlation which, I assume based on reading the wiki, makes it more sensitive to weak signals? That's certainly a good thing. I'm still curious to know exactly how much more sensitive it makes S@H, and if there are any other improvements in v.7... |

Lunatics Windows Installer v0.41 Release Notes
(Message 1376207)
Posted 3 Jun 2013 by Borgholio Post: Installed and working great. Once again, hats off to Lunatics! One question regarding the CUDA versions. I'm running a 9800 series GeForce so I selected 3.2. What would actually happen if I were to select a higher version of CUDA? Would it just not work, or would it not work as well as 3.2? If I stick with 3.2, will that prevent me from getting certain kinds of work from Seti? Thanks! |

Posted 19 Jul 2012 by Borgholio Post: Yep, looks like BOINC lumps the GPU scheduler into the CPU. After chugging through all my WCG units I'm back up to ~300 in my cache...and that's with the CPDN tasks still in there. Seems if my CPU cache fills up with non-SETI workunits, then my GPU cache of SETI workunits shrinks to only a day or two's worth. Time to report a bug... |

BOINC is bad at math, reason why some people can't keep a full cache?
(Message 1261851)
Posted 18 Jul 2012 by Borgholio Post: I have noticed something like this too. I am running a couple dozen projects including SETI. I have noticed that my GPU cache shrinks when I get a lot of CPU tasks from other projects, especially Climateprediction.net. Based on my testing in this thread: http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=68453 I came to the conclusion that the number of tasks in queue for the GPU depend on how many tasks are in queue for the CPU. That is, the schedulers for CPU and GPU are in fact NOT separate from each other, as it was back when individual scheduling for CPU and GPU was first introduced a couple years ago. I smell a bug. |

Posted 17 Jul 2012 by Borgholio Post: I think I found the problem...and it's a big one. It would seem that when BOINC calculates how much work to download, it can't tell the difference between CPU and GPU tasks. Here's how I tested. 1. Set "no new work" on all projects except SETI. 2. Waited for all non-SETI tasks to complete. 3. Watched SETI queue grow to ~400 workunits. So then I set things back to normal. 1. Resumed work fetch on all projects. 2. Downloaded a couple dozen World Community Grid workunits (~8 hours long) 3. Watched SETI queue drop to ~200 workunits. 4. Downloaded four Climate Prediction workunits (week-long tasks, for those who don't know) 5. Watched SETI queue drop to ~100 workunits. I am setting "no new work" on all projects except SETI once again to see if my queue grows as before. If it does, then it means that getting a bunch of large CPU tasks would shrink the GPU queue down to only a day or two's worth. |

Posted 15 Jun 2012 by Borgholio Post: I know there have been some pretty heavy scheduler changes recently, and I expected the number of WUs I have cached to change, but not by as much as it has. It used to be that my old dual-core rig with one CUDA GPU would cache 300 - 400 SETI units at a time...and it would successfully crunch them all in time. Now that I've upgraded my machine to a quad core with two CUDA GPUs, I find I'm only caching 50 or so at a time. I've checked my settings and set minimum and extra work to 10 days but nothing. What's up? |
