The Scottish Boinc Team

hopefully, in my life, I am 62 ... I will get a WU to complete

which PG app should I be running for Sierpinski then?

awesome

Holy smoke. What is in your GPU farm now then? I've lost count

sliver

check your RAM usage when running this, I noticed that Windows app was using 2Gb per WU (vers 0.11) but Linux app only 70-200Mb (vers 0.19). Only saw one at 500Mb

Many congratulations on your (first) 11 years. Keep up the good work.

I don't worry much about badges or individual points to be honest. Apart from a very few individual challenges, it is all about the TSBT team score for me - especially for Pentathlon and Formula Boinc. I would also like to see a bit more structure on BoincStats challenges but that is a whole new sto...

Wanless Mersenne+2 is a cpu project. It does not have a Windows app so Linux only. Short deadlines (48hrs)

YoYo: highest scores are on Cruncher OGR. Big variation in run times

Oh - I see !! Not sure my new Rasp Pi is going to be enough.

Ah great - another Sprint candidate

almost certainly the next Sprint so as to coincide with project maintenance :rollseyes:

Ha !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll have that #10 spot off of you when my new Rasp Pi4 arrives

Nice one Gregg

It was on my best Intel too : Xeon(R) CPU E5-2696 v4 @ 2.20GHz (so you will see that I am switching over to Ryzen

). t2 is probably a good compromise actually so I'll do that in future

Thanks guys. I did have more than a little help so a big shout-out to bluestang, Bryan, scole and SolidAir79 who contributed points, expertise or both.

I don't think anyone expected a 65M bunker drop with 2-1/2hrs to go

nearly 9 days in some cases but at least they tell you they can be long. I guess multi-threaded would be a lot quicker but easier to allocate threads singly

The Sprint won't be known for another 24hrs. Hoping it is either PrimeGrid or a CPU project

Time to set nomorework - empty caches as only WU downloaded AFTER 2200 UTC will count

excellent news - well done

Definitely in it to win it. https://tsbt.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=22419 I tried the cpu app and 24hrs per wu would suggest it is a waste of time. I wont be turning in any wu for 24hrs though, in case pg is also the sprint. I am staying on pg even if sprint is a gpu project as I have high...

Great stuff, Gregg - many thanks

I say we give him the same 10-month anniversary gift as I got

That is fantastic news on all counts, Gregg. Congratulations

I think you already use that on your other Linux crunchers TBH. I can see no value in additional instances if they don't auto-start :)

Talk to your Grandfather about auto-start on Windows as I haven't a clue

Did you wash your hands? Put this into a file called /etc/rc.local on the Rasp Pi. Save it. chmod +x /etc/rc.local and reboot. It will start an additional instance for every boinc directory it finds commencing at port 31501 #!/bin/sh -e # rc.local # This script is executed at the end of each multius...

Okay - we'll do it after you go to the toilet for Daddy

the multiple instance thing worked. Then didn't. Now after a uninstall/reinstall of Boinc on the Pi, I've got it recognised on btsk which is cool, even if it's only as a single instance. Which on balance is still cool! The other 3 are enroute! You can use the the same /etc/rc.local file to auto-sta...

Pleased to meet you too. Tell us a bit about yourself if you please? What are you working on?

They won't be found instantly BTW - either wait a while or use yellow menu > hover > machine config > re-sync hosts

yes - I use multi-instance on rpi for btsk - run WUprop in every instance, usual password in gui_rpc_auth.cfg & btsk server IP in remote_hosts.cfg Then add 3 lines at the end of /etc/hosts on btsk server. For EXAMPLE 92.168.0.160 rpi1 #boinc= cpu=4 groups=rpi 92.168.0.161 rpi2 #boinc= cpu=4 grou...

pps_sieve so made for a man with a few nVidias

Is it worth also running on CPU and on AMD GPU (rx580)? If so, I'll need to get some practise

These three machines only get v1.03 (cuda31). Doesn't appear to be related to driver version number. All machines with a single GPU do advance past cuda31 giga2, 192.168.2.214, Linux Ubuntu Ubuntu 20.04 LTS [5.4.0-33-generic|libc 2.31 (Ubuntu GLIBC 2.31-0ubuntu9)] Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1620 v3 @ 3...

this is Linux sorry. On moo

Now have 3 machines which get only cuda31 WU while all the others progress

I use the Pi Hut - either on eBay or their own site

Would help if a few more projects supported them

One machine is not progressing through the usual cuda31 / cuda60 / cuda70 to the higher paying units. I even started again with an older driver to use the same as the others but - no joy. Tearing my hair out on this (if I had any to tear out)

very clever :)

all before my time - I'll flag it up for @Alez

Cookie policy link is a VERY small link in centre-top of the sign-in page - very easy to miss & should be much more obvious

Excellent - well done that man

Very interesting. Should be fairly easy to check for that CPU on all my Ibercivis WU too

One. Two. Three ...

Yeah - you are doing a great job for us in the FB marathons, thanks. Oh - and for the projects too :)

+1 to that

Hello and thanks

Can you pop over to https://chat.gentlydoes.it please

I had such high hopes.

Thank you - you just saved me a fair bit of time trying

Heh Gregg - the sprint is Collatz so I hope you've still got these optimisations in place?
