Posted 21 Jul 2020 by davidBAM Post: Thanks Eric, I look forward to that new GPU app as I really did enjoy running NumberFields again during the Pentathlon. Yours has always been a very well-managed project in my experience |

Posted 21 Jul 2020 by davidBAM Post: " Either way, credits may be higher than some projects, but should be less than PrimeGrid. That's the happy medium I tried to find." Still comfortably less than PrimeGrid Eric e.g. for an nvidia gtx1660ti on Linux ... ... PrimeGrid pps-sieve around 1.3M credits per day ... NumberFields GetDecic around 46.5K credits per day That is 28 times higher and, rightly or wrongly, that REALLY does matter to a great many people when they are deciding which project to run. PS: I would be happy to provide you with timings to back up these figures |

Posted 25 Mar 2019 by davidBAM Post: Why? (asked in all seriousness) Presumably the GPU app advances the project much quicker so has to pay the going rate to attract GPU owners to crunch them. By my rough reckoning, the new WU are paying approx double what GPUGrid is paying but less than half of what Collatz pays. |

Posted 25 Mar 2019 by davidBAM Post: Thanks Eric - I have quite a few of the original WU to work my way through but can do this now that I know what is happening. If it looks like I'll miss the deadline, I'll abort some of them. Thanks for fixing this so quickly |

Posted 24 Mar 2019 by davidBAM Post: Thank you Yes, confirms that multiple WU were running on a single GPU rather than one per GPU |

Posted 24 Mar 2019 by davidBAM Post: Yes, it does seem to take a whole CPU core to keep each GPU WU busy |

Posted 24 Mar 2019 by davidBAM Post: All sorted now. Thanks Eric. If it sounds a little mercenary, the points are the only thing we get for all the money spent on hardware and electricity. Oh wait, make that points plus a warm furry feeling that we are helping to advance science. |

Posted 24 Mar 2019 by davidBAM Post: Okay ta - maybe it is just taking a while. Nothing has updated yet in fact Formula Boinc, Boincstats and even my new badge on project site all seem to be 24hrs behind Are points from the GPU app exported please Eric? |
