Should the fixed credits be higher?
(Message 2850)
Posted 27 Jun 2020 by zombie67 [MM] Post: So I have decided to double the credits. This will get it closer to the PrimeGrid credits and I think this will make most people happier. If necessary I can always put it back later. Has the change in credits been implemented now? |

Should the fixed credits be higher?
(Message 2832)
Posted 18 Jun 2020 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Short answer: Yes, credits are too small here. Longer answer: Try doing come crunching with your own machines on other projects. PrimeGrid is a good baseline, a good place to start. Run your CPUs there against one of their LLR sub-projects, and run your GPUs on their PPS sub-project. That should give you a good benchmark to compare to what you generate against this project. Then consider offering bonus rates for unusual things that you may require for your project, for example large memory requirements, or long running times without checkpoints, etc. |

Posted 4 Mar 2016 by zombie67 [MM] Post: Your news feed said that we are on the last field now. Can you please explain what that means? But, by the looks of the Batch Status page, aren't most of the Idx's yet to have their work distributed? Why are we dry on the Bounded App already? :) |

Extra Credit for GetDecics
(Message 590)
Posted 27 Mar 2012 by zombie67 [MM] Post: In the short term, we are more interested in the GetDecics results. So as an extra incentive to get users to run the GetDecics app, we are granting 50% more credits to all successful GetDecics results. This will be for a short time, until the current batch (14x121) is complete. How much is left of this hot GetDecic batch? |
