    Oh.. I have been paying attention... and I hate diseases... so forcing you to to add another 3X production power is an absolute win.

    I would like very much to see him add approximately another 250million PPD a day.

    How about everyone in spots 3-10 all fold under #2s name / API key once we hit day 20 minimum requirements

    Don’t take him for everything, you don’t want to inherit his power bills.

    The entry starts every night... I think Den-Fine noticed me today...

    A person?

    Welcome

    This. There are sub variants for some cards in the FAH gpu list so they are tracked separately. If you compare the URL for each one on the list there will be an extra number on one which is the variant.

    It can hit 800k, 1mil on a rare wu. The p106 is more less a headless 1060 so it should hover around 650k avg. https://folding.lar.systems/folding_data/gpu_ppd_datasheet?gpu_model=gp106_geforce_gtx_1060_6gb_4372 if you look at the bottom of that page you can see some 17XXX projects give what you’re seeing on average closer to 8-900k

    On Linux Mint when I change the hardware physically GPU slot, card etc. I generally have to re-install the NVidia Drivers and CUDA package to get everything working again. I just keep the terminal commands in a text file now.

    Just a heads up. Anyone using the Folding@Home in the Dark browser extension should refresh the window when possible as the latest build and the related bugs it created has been patched this morning. Cheers, continue your folding!

    Think this will be the last code update of the day. Couple more little patches checked off the list, of note that you would see is the visual glitches when the slots are loading and might display a sliver the of the performance window profile. As there are a few other bug fixes in the mix I would suggest refreshing the window to make sure these updates take effect on your system. Cheers,

    There has been some unicorns WUs in the past day I have seen some very nice things on my Rigs... but then you get 4 Cancer WUs in a row... and it all averages out
  14. LAR_Systems
    It's why the database is based on averages. Some people run stuff overclocked max voltages... others run underclocked and power limited to reduce heat. Some choke a GPU with folding on all threads of the CPU at the sametime... etc. etc. So as WU samples build values are all based on averages of all samples to take that spectrum and try to find a middle baseline with a margin of error that is still more accurate then the napkin math done for this stuff based solely on clocks and cores cause it takes how the different WUs also hammer the hardware differently. As for finding the balance... the addition of CPU PPD-PLC is completely new to the system so I'm not here yet. But the end goal is to to have the average PPD-PLC, CPU and Logical Cores assigned to the folding machine do some math against the GPUs assigned to the folding machine to actually warn / recommend users on how to adjust the number of logical cores they are using to not choke the GPUs and get max PPD IN general or from the most efficient device they have. Rather my GPU churn out an extra 100PPD on less CPU threads than my CPU on more threads if the CPU is using 3X the power etc.

    An update has been pushed which should trickle out over the next hour or so on refresh of the client. The new project for this GPU messaging was not launching correctly. When a GPU loads a project that does not have any or has very low WU samples in the database it's supposed to simply say that in the performance window until enough data has collected to start showing averages. What you're seeing is the we go data display screens... and what they do when they don't have data which makes your running machine = to the average because your machine is comparing itself to itself. Anyways... hopefully it's patched now... hard one to tackle cause you only see the case of a GPU / Project combination not already in the DB... and my GPUs for testing are the most common in the DB.

    I know it's a close fight... the difference and the gain rate was not much. So I guess I better put a few more guards on the wall... sounds like mercenaries may be on their way!

    All of us trying to understand @Den-Fi

    This is my strat for folding months. All gear is 24/7 but all heating in the house is replaced with folding machines that I have broken down in to smaller systems to have in different areas. When folding month is over I go back to only power efficient cards and time shifting their use based on power rate times of day. You can fold a lot without going broke, but it takes strategy.

    Oh god, why have I seen this...

    HI everyone, Quick update. There was some server updates today to deal with server resource issues so sorry if you were impacted by some strangeness like WU averages etc. being a little strange while this occurred. In addition to the cleanup you will now find that for GPU projects the Atoms and Cause is reported on the slots. Atoms and Cause coming to CPU slots soon. The PPD indicator has been updated so there is a +/- 10% tolerance for the red or green indicators coming on for when you GPU slot is operating within this "Average" range making it a more useful indication as to when PPD is out of the ordinary. Project pages on the database site have been updated to show the Atoms, Core and project branch status of projects. And CPU based project pages (link found in the CPU slots in the web client) now contain the BETA charts for PPD-PLC (PPD per logical processor) as that system builds data and is under review. These client based updates will trickle in to the wild over the next couple hours and take effect with a refresh of the page when they do.

    The goal is babysitter, that sends data to site, site that let's you see what's going on, remotely send commands to babysitter to execute basic commands like finish, pause, stop. Goals: without a chrome extension / web client. Babysitting Remote review of all your folders Remote manual control of all your folders Remote scripted control of your folders aka (if after X time of day fold while power is cheap (it's cold, etc.), set projects to finish X time before power gets expensive, it gets hot out again, or pause / stop)

    Be warned... many of us start this way... then it takes over

    TIL I'm not most people.

    I need the heat to drop back to seasonal. I feel like I live inside a blow-dryer.

    It's not a storm in Toronto until some stupid prick floods and sinks a supercar.
