Hi Mark
Given that I'm well on my way to the 100m total credits mark on PG, I might just keep crunching these tasks, even AFTER the Challenge ends...esp as each task is worth 12,000 credits.
According to this (link below) this sub-project is only about 20% of the way through their tasks and they started in Nov 2020, so plenty more tasks will be continuing to be available for some time to come:
http://www.primegrid.com/forum_thread.p ... rue#149997
I'm on a total of 98,969,010.34 at this point, so, another 1,030,989.66 should do me fine...that's only another 86 Yuri tasks...should be easy

Tim,
Great idea as this project is the fastest credit getter for fast GPUs running single tasks.
The PPsieve is fast and can be multi-task per GPU, but WW also gets near-primes, IMO it's a simple fast way to increase credit scores.
Good Luck

Hi Mark
1 task 0n 3090 is 270 secs. I haven't tried 2 tasks as Afterburner shows 99% usage. As CPU is almost nil, I presumed the GPU was doing, all the processing, indicating 2 tasks would create an overhead.
1 task on 3080 is 320 secs.

PS CPU task - 3950X running 30 cores gets 10500 secs.

Thanks. I've not got anything as modern as that but my 2080S is turning two out in 900 - 1000 seconds so roughly half your 3090.
I can't remember the figures from setting it up but it was definitely better to run two at time.

I just tried 2 tasks on the 3090, and it comes out around 530 secs, whereas 1 task is 270.
The savings would add up in a challenge, but you would lose a degree of "first-finder" with slower execution times. Interesting though.

Slightly disappointed that I didn't make the 25 million mark but I'll live with it
An amazing performance from Richard, not only did he out crunch 443 other people but he single handedly out crunched 88 other
TEAMS
...and Richard indeed put in a sterling effort, outscoring many other members, and earning 10th place in the World...
And as for outscoring 88 teams !!...that alone is worth a few
Well Done to the 4 musketeers !!
regards
Tim

Hi fellow Muskateers,
Thanks for the kind words Mark, it was fun to use the GPUs to their full extent.
At least we have kept the team in a good scoring place, which is worth an effort.
I shall switch off a few things to keep the meter cool, and I’m not sure what to do next.
Take care all it ain’t over yet.
Richard
