Bigadv heads up

Not sure if completion rate is lifetime, but it seems to be. Otherwise those who dump WUs should lose their QRB fairly quickly.


Looks like no swimming for Pocatello just yet. ;)

From what I understand, it is lifetime completion rate.

Just an update.

I did get ahold of Kasson and they are working on it. It sounds like the only other option would be to shut down bigadv. below is his responce.

It's beginning to look like the solution is to kill the stats servers :rolleyes:

In reference to 80 percent successful completion rate, you are correct. That "lifetime" though, is defined as the discrete username/passkey set.

I had Stanford check mine 1 time when I was running smp -7 and had left for the weekend, we all know how folding and computers are, if you are not around somthing is going to go wrong. Anyway I left it running beta and they released on of the wu's that does not play nice with -smp 7 I had several hundred wu's eue in a row before I it quit getting them. When they checked my success rate the said it was not even close to being down to the 80% success rate. :eek:
 
So I got one that ran about normal times so I didn't notice till it failed at the end.
but 50k steps not 250k

Code: 
[08:04:03] Project: 6903 (Run 2, Clone 5, Gen 66)
[08:04:03]
[08:04:03] Assembly optimizations on if available.
[08:04:03] Entering M.D.
[08:04:11] Mapping NT from 48 to 48
[08:04:15] Completed 0 out of 500000 steps  (0%)
 
last two after the mil ones were 500k ones, they took like 50 min/frame, and the first one failed through at like 23% ish

about 120k ppd, on a 410k rig

until they fail lol
 
KMac, that's not quite fair. Pande Group started investigating an taking steps concerning the wonky work units several days ago.

Is this bad dream over yet?
 
You should be safe now there has only been one that I know of since the fix. Linden was the grand prize winner he got the same 10,000,000 step WU That I originally reported over at the FF. So it looks like they got most or all of them now.

Looks like dual hex-cores Xeons at 3.6Ghz can't meet the 6903 deadline anymore...... sad enough day to make baby Jesus cry.

The deadlines are not official, the 6903 deadlines have not even been announced yet.
If current deadlines for the 8101 were used a 3.6 dual hex would certainly make it.
2.6 no 2.8 yes and so on......
 
They really need mid range units, smp 12, to keep the hex and quad 2p folks fed.

I totally agree with that. Until they come up with a clever system to measure real performance, they really should not leave a huge gap between bigadv and regular smp units.
 
Pg has specifically said that they are opposed to a tiered system like that.
