  1. I think they did get shorter. I do not remember having to fold at least one WU for 5 days for 6 day event.
  2. They do not stick. They get STUCK. Only way to get them through is to suspend the task, let other task come to 99% and then I suspend those and resume previous. And even then, it's like lottery if they will even move.
  3. Even if I suspend all CPU tasks and let a single 0.9CPU 0.5GPU task go from 0-100% it will get stuck at 99% and it will use at most 10% of my CPU for it.
  4. Yeah guys, you are on your own with Einstein. I am not gonna bother with this. Way too much hassle for too small gain. This is dumb:
  5. Once you set it up in preferences, you have to click "update" button on every boinc client.
  6. Is anyone else experiencing the problem where some Einstein tasks just get stuck at 99% and do not want to process further and boinc won't download new ones unless I process those first. Like I have to babysit 4 of my systems. I am thinking of just giving up on Einstein tbh. This is happening on 4 different configurations with similar GPUs (2080/2080S).
  7. By default, on one of my systems, PrimeGrid uses 2 out of 2 GPUs but does not utilize them fully. Do you know where I can find a guide on editing cc_config files to use them fully and efficiently? I just spent about 30min searching for it but couldn't find it. I remember setting up my app_config file for WCG but I do not remember anything about PrimeGrid.
  8. Is there no easy way to bunker some projects while still uploading others? It's been long since I've done this. I guess it is not possible with single instance of BOINC manager, am I right?
  9. So, in how many hours/minutes does event start exactly? Are we using GMT?
  10. Who do I contact in order to donate to prize pool? @GOTSpectrum
  11. I had one of my networks (which I usually use VPN with for torrents), blacklisted on their website after accessing it for a few times (without VPN or active torrents). As I do not use that network often, I just forgot about it and didn't even contact him. After 3-6 months later when I tried again with that network, it worked fine. He probably has an automated system for that.
  12. Hahahah, most likely, you did not, but well, if you didn't have any important settings or apps configured, you are good to go. If I were to reinstall my OS, I'd need like a month to set up everything the way it was.
  13. Have you deleted the previous config before reinstalling? Can you try deleting all slots, exiting F@H, killing it in task manager and then starting it up again?
  14. Could be badly configured F@H. What have you done before you experienced this?
  15. This is a big problem for me too. If I want to run HWinfo, I have to reboot my PC after using it if I want to use my iCue again. I lose almost all functionality from iCue when I run HWinfo.
  16. No worries, you forgot about "only" 350 billion $, so, nothing serious.
  17. Not sure I understand this reference. Bitcoin is not "just point(s)". Bitcoin has value.
  18. You probably got awarded with lost points that were your all along but weren't awarded at the time. OR, someone folded for you .
  19. Just a regular shortage of WUs error. Server has no WUs to give you at the time. But be sure to check if you have internet connection anyway, ISPNs can crap their bad sometimes.
  20. Probably due to linux. Also, those are new cards and there isn't a ton of data on them yet, that is why they might vary a lot in PPD. Linux does give you better PPD, that is for sure, but I wouldn't say every unit is 50%+ better than on windows.
  21. Avoid having core restarting, it is much better for your PPD than overclocking. I learned it the hard way back in 2018. If you aim to fold all year around, consider putting slight overclock and dropping the power limit. You can even see my only 2080 Super with 55% PL and small OC (+30CC/+250MC) has been stably folding since event ended for exactly 2.73M and it is using a fraction of power that it used during an event when I OC-ed it to 105% PL same OC and it did between 2.8-3.2M PPD. Ah, yes, all of you who will pass me this year will have a hard job keeping your spots during next year. All my GPUs are currently mining to recuperate from folding months bill. Also, I'll have to ask Jason from EoC to start accepting crypto donations, as converting crypto to PayPal is a hassle nowadays and using credit card to donate money to PayPal is not something I am into. Their fees and conversion rates are absurd.
  22. Heh, enjoy your rank ups while you can, I gotta cover some electricity with my cards. Do not worry, I will catch you next year.
