Posted 27 Feb 2021 by Penguin Post: My account page here and various BOINC Managers on different hosts report the right credit for my account, however, on FreeDC it's only show about half of that amount. I have it selected to export stats. Is this an issue with the data stored here and not being picked up by FreeDC or maybe FreeDC not picking up updated stats? |

Posted 8 Apr 2019 by Penguin Post: The big drop in GPU credits is due to implementing CreditNew. Yes someone else mentioned CreditNew.... I'm not familar with it. Thank you for the replies. It was just such a severe drop. I ran some CPU wu's too, and yes, those are nice and quick now too. About 3x slower than the GPU. I did find running 2 GPU tasks uses the high end GPUs better. Was gettting only 85% usage with one task, now 100% with 2 simultaneously. Sorry people supposedly abused the GPU credit scheme at one point.... :( |

Posted 8 Apr 2019 by Penguin Post: Was averaging 6000 credits per wu, now 60???? 100 times less? That's a drastic cut.... If it's based on cobblestones (amount of work done calculation wise) this is ok, if it's based on run-time you are encouraging people to use slow hardware. Still, it's a hugely drastic cut that happened on April 7th about mid day. I really can't see using my GPU for this anymore when I'm getting approx 200 credits for an hours worth of work. It's just not worth it. I haven't tried CPU yet to compare and I did read the threads about excessive credits for GPU and now CPU being 10 x faster... I'm just not sure I understand the 100 times cut in credit... that's huge. |
