AQUQ UK Number 1 in Jepordy!
#62
New WUs available for the weekend - only 8qubit (CUDA) and 16qubit (MT) until after the weekend. :)
[Edit]
....here are the some units returned with the new MT app:

New Credit scheme for AQUA:
http://aqua.dwavesys.com/forum_thread.p ... =true#3546
It's the same scheme as used in the 8qubit / 16qubit runs over the week-end which averaged at 104 cr/run time hour for the CPU WUs. This compares with 70 cr/run time hour for MW on the same machine. Each run lasted about 30 mins elapsed time.
(Machine=Core Duo - 2.0Ghz / Windows Vista 32-bit / CPU only).
From the message boards looks like the GPU version requires the latest drivers (v190) to work.

New 72qubit CPU/CUDA run started last night - in case anyone's interested.
Please note the new creditt scheme (see previous post) and the following on variable credits based non the number of sweeps:

Woo Hoo!!!
As Steve's graph explains we are once again a rather convincing UK #1! :wav:
Our lead has become consolidated over the last 24hrs to a somewhat whopping 750K! :wav:
And AQUA has become our 10th 10 Million credits project! :wav: :wav: :wav:
Well done TSBT dudes & dudettes!

Judging from the results since the 5th August looks like the credit system has been adjusted to MW levels:
Avge credit / run time hour 96-4M units (on or after 5th August): 127
credit / run time hour 128-5M units: 148 (1 unit so far)
This is on a dual-core machine. For MW I can run 2x units at 70 credit / run time hour which amounts to an average of 140 cr/hr on the same machine - more or less equivalent to the AQUA units which now use both cores this makes it more convenient to run them alone rather than share with other projects.
... is this the same for everyone ?

I can't say for MW on CPU's, but yes, on Aqua, I noticed a big drop in CPU credit in the last couple of days.
There's a lot of discussion over on their forums about credit adjustments. I think they reduced the CPU credit by a factor of 3, but it is dynamic to say the least.
Can't complain though: curently achieving 13k per day from two dual core boxes.
P.S......got another ATI card arriving today

One more ATI arriving today eh.
Better get my motherboard RMAed quick to get my other cards back online as your starting to worry me :)

Judging from the way credits are going I suspect that the slow build up of longer work units is weeding out the slower machines... this may include 2-core machines (like mine) which are starting to fall behind.Can't complain though: curently achieving 13k per day from two dual core boxes.
Looks like quad+-cores w/out CUDA and a good amount of L2 cache are doing much better by a significant factor.
Take a look at TomaszPawel's two messages:
http://aqua.dwavesys.com/forum_thread.p ... =true#4076 and the one immediately following.
At the moment credit is still good and I'm not complaining.... but I think you may like to keep an eye on it as longer run times seem to get less cr/hr.

I had to suspend Aqua last night due to MW not playing nicely with LTD and causing mayhem with the scheduler. I think I could knock up a short script to fix that, but don't have time now.
Meanwhile, I dropped a Quad core onto Aqua to see what the performance would be like and it picked up a couple of huge 160 qubits. After 6 hours it was only 25% through. For various reasons, I don't want to run that rig 24/7, so I suspended it overnight to take another look this morning.
Long and the short of it is I think you're right as these bigger WU's get released, the dual core's may struggle.

For anyone who is still running AQUA - the queue has run dry... probably until after the weekend as they are releasing new apps:

In a way it's a relief - being able to rededicate my CPU cores to CPDN without thinking I'm missing out on/depriving the team of greater gains. :)
