#1 Milkyway@home Micromanaging CPU vs GPU Workunit Limits

Post by Newshound »


Hey Everyone,



I will be tweaking some config options on the server to better improve database stability and allow for stockpiling of more workunits by GPU users.



The new workunit limits should be as follows:

Separation:

600 total

200 GPU (Per GPU up to 600)

40 CPU (Per CPU up to 600)

Nbody:

120 total

20 CPU (Per CPU up to 120)





Hopefully you guys notice this on your end. If we notice we are running out of workunits more frequently on the server, I will increase the workunit cache a bit.



Let me know what you all think about these numbers and how it is working for you.



Jake
