Mindmodelling

[ChelseaOilman]

Seems nobody here is interested in MindModeling. If you are tasks are available right now. I started getting them yesterday. Still getting them now. I raised my score by over 100K in the last 12 hours or so. I'm currently the top producer and the team is the top team as a result. Feel free to join in.

Hi

Could do with a change - I'll try n get some later.

I didn't realise it was still running!

[ChelseaOilman]

Only periodically. Last few months it's been giving out tasks for a day then disappears for a month or more.

[ChelseaOilman]

Woodles you need to pass that 4 million point. So close!

5 million has a better ring to it though!

[ChelseaOilman]

Unfortunately that might be a ways off as I have a feeling the tasks are starting to dry up.

[UBT - Mikee]

Tasks ready to send 34

Been there for a while now

[UBT - Mikee]

Now up to 65 so it looks like it dynamically creates new WUs as required.

WooHoo, a project where I'm actually in front of CO!

Now if only I could remember my password ....

Ha ha

[Woodles]

Ha Ha, yourself

Found the project on an older host and copied the files over, managed to grab seven tasks before it ran out of work

They must have loaded some more, I have twenty eight now! That should last nearly six minutes the rate they're going

And at only 1.25 credits per task, five million looks a looooooooooong way off.

These tasks are a pain. To small. I'm getting fewer and fewer each update it seems. You burn through the few you get so fast.

Same here, they seem to spend as much time downloading and uploading as they do actually running.

I'm going to limit them to the smaller machines, they might be able to keep busy.

[Woodles]

Seems to be a limit of four tasks per thread as well, that's less then five minutes work!

Luckily it's easily fooled which allows a bit more of a buffer

.... although there's still a maximum limit of 256 tasks

Moved to Bio/Med rather than cafe

1.25 credits per task? Luxury....mine are earning between 0.25 and 0.51 per task with those tasks taking between 130 and 260 seconds each.

Gonna take me years to get to 1 million, never mind 5 !!

I've popped a VM on it out of interest. The other small one I've had some resource against recently is YAFU.

[Woodles]

For some reason I can't get work on one machine while another is happily chewing through them?

Tim, are you getting the Native Python v2.7 Application (Cross Platform) v1.14 (sse2NoXP) tasks? Flipping between 1.1 and 1.4 credits per 80 - 100 second task with the occasional 100 - 110 second tasks getting 1.8 credits.

Damien, you want <ncpus>64</ncpus> in cc_config.xml and <project_max_concurrent>n</project_max_concurrent> in an app_config.xml in the project directory to get the full 256 task cache but only run 'n' at a time. Although knowing your machines, you probably have 64 cores in the VM anyway!

I raised my score by over 100K in the last 12 hours or so.

Just noticed this

100k credits must mean at least 80k tasks crunched in 12 hours!
