Re: ODLK
Hi all
Current ODLK project website shows we have now amassed 1,165,518 credits (in total).
Deducting our end of 2017 total of 56,422 means we have earned 1,109,096 credits this year, which should now put us ahead of SETI.Germany on the FB Marathon for ODLK.
That gives us a net gain of 1 FB credit (and of course we had already gained back the point we lost when BOINC.Italy overtook us).
FB website will no doubt confirm this when their daily credits update takes place.
regards
Tim

Re: ODLK
Hi Mark
So it looks like Italy were keen to do well in the BS Challenge !!
Personally I'd have thought they would have gone on to maybe get at least in the Top 5...but OTOH, by easing off now, gives us a chance for a couple of days (and before the next Sprint) to extend our lead by a wee bit...
Russia are 200,000 ahead, so that's a possible scalp we could take !!
regards

Re: ODLK
I've filled my cache and turned off network access on the off chance that ODLK might be selected on Weds night. If not then nothing is lost.

Well out of the "runners and riders" for the next Sprint the following could be discounted:
Already been chosen in 2018:
#4) Amicable Numbers
#8) Asteroids@home (supports CPU/GPU)
#6) Enigma@home
#5) Moo! Wrapper (supports CPU/GPU)
#10) NFS@home
#7) ODLK1
#9) Rosetta@home
#1) Seti@home (supports CPU/GPU)
#2) VGTU@home
#3) World Community Grid
Possibles - but unlikely:
BURP - unlikely - not enough tasks available
DENIS@Home - unlikely - not enough tasks available
DrugDiscovery@home - unlikely - not enough tasks available
The dDM-Project - CLOSED DOWN
theSkyNet POGS - the PS1 Optical Galaxy Survey - CLOSED DOWN
Wanless Mersenne +2 - unlikely - Linux only
XANSONS for COD - unlikely - not enough tasks available
leaving the following:
Acoustics@home
Citizen Science Grid
Collatz Conjecture (supports CPU/GPU)
Cosmology@home
Einstein@home (supports CPU/GPU)
GPUGrid (supports CPU/GPU)
LHC@home 1.0 (supports CPU/GPU)
Milkyway@home (supports CPU/GPU)
NumberFields@home
ODLK
PrimeGrid (supports CPU/GPU)
RakeSearch
SRBase
TN-Grid
Universe@Home
Yafu
Yoyo@home
Only 3 out of the 10 chosen thus far have been CPU/GPU projects, so 7 have been CPU only...so I think another GPU project could be chosen...though if you check other posts Mark found some info that the project is chosen randomly...
I'm carrying on with ODLK (until the appointed time) just to build up a buffer with other ODLK teams.
If ODLK ISN'T chosen, be prepared to "abort" a lot of the tasks so you can fill your cache with the chosen projects tasks.

Tim

Re: ODLK
hopefully Primegrid. Been slogging away at that one for a while. That 1080ti goes through PPS (sieve) like a hot knife through butter. 3 minutes for 3371 credit. 1060GTX not that far behind either.UBT - Timbo wrote: ↑Mon Jul 16, 2018 6:51 pmHi ChrisUBT - Chris Suddick wrote: ↑Mon Jul 16, 2018 5:07 pm I've filled my cache and turned off network access on the off chance that ODLK might be selected on Weds night.

Re: ODLK
Primegrid would be nice, a decent server, well established apps and always plenty of work.

Re: ODLK
8hr35min for Genefer 21 credit 147K on a 1080ti. centuries for wingman to verify
6mins 35sec for PPS(sieve) credit 3371 yet it takes just over 8 hours via CPU. is this still the best app for maximizing the credit? both duncan and meddy2065 seem to think so. duncan has caught me again
would they still use 2 stage if it was picked for the sprint? just have to wait and see.

Re: ODLK
I forgot they use wingmen
I haven't ran PrimeGrid for ages, it would be useful to have a set of times and credits for each application just in case they do pick it.
And yes, if it's picked then two stage verification will still be a part of it. The project owners don't get told they've been picked so they have no time to change the normal operation of the project.

Re: ODLK
I wouldn't say that, as PG has lots of different tasks, some of which don't take long at all - you just have to be selective in which tasks you choose to allow BOINC Manager to process. (See your PrimeGrid account and take a look in the "PrimeGrid preferences" section.
So, if shorter tasks are completed, there's a far better chance that these completed tasks *will* be validated by the wingman, within the Sprint period.

Re: ODLK
We just passed Russia and gained another two points. We're a long way off TAAT for the next point though. I think I might do the same as last week now and turn off network access until Wednesday's announcement.

Re: ODLK
Just a quick update on ODLK...
We've created a comfortable buffer between ourselves and Russia, and closed the gap a little on TAAT. However, overclock.net are on a bit of a charge. They are currently 470k behind us and closing fast but it is a one-man charge and that man is currently on 830k so there is the chance he is just doing this to get to 1 million. If that is the case he might close down long before he bothers us. If not then he'll be past us in a fortnight.

Re: ODLK
Hi Chris
I've taken my foot off the pedal on ODLK for a bit and I'm putting my CPU efforts into Acoustics@home for a wee while.
But I'll happily switch back to ODLK, if we need to.

Tim

Re: ODLK
As I said before I don't think there's any need to panic yet. I thought I might take a couple of days off and try the prime grid eclipse challenge and then I'll be straight back.

Re: ODLK
As I suspected, the chappie from Overclock got his 1M and then went right off the boil. We're closing very slowly on TAAT who haven't scored a single point in over three weeks so I shall whittle away at the deficit for the foreseeable with the exception of any non-GPU sprints that I can help out on.

Re: ODLK
Hi Chris
Good news
I'm running a couple of different CPU tasks at present: mainly odlk and VGTU so I can hit my own "1 million" credit targets and waiting for the resumption of the FB Sprints (in less than a week now)...at which point I'll switch depending on which projects are chosen.
