Where are the work units?

I hoped you could tell me ...

(BTW, while there were no GPU tasks available during the past few days, I switched to Einstein - and these tasks showed a strange behaviour [as opposed to about a year ago]: for the first 80-100 seconds and the last 50-60 seconds of a task, only the CPU was crunching, NOT the GPU. Figuring that the tasks' lengh was about 12-14 minutes, the GPU was suffering a thermal cycle about 5 x per hour).

Einstein allows you a setup to run multiple wu's per gpu. Results in average gpu-usage of > 98%

The coproc_info.xml file that is created by the client controls the number of gpus detected.

Got it. THX !

I see your computers are set up to run Seti, where it is common to "spoof" the server into "thinking" you have 32 coprocessors/GPUs per rig.

Tell me more !
Seti has the problem of not beeing always available and not having always wu's available, but the allowed runtime is quite long. So it makes sense to have a larger buffer, but this should only affect the Seti wu's.

Some years ago there was a AMD application and is still possible to check the box for AMD wu's in the GPUGRID preferences.
Maybe there will be less confusion if this check-box is removed ..

Abandon all hope.


It's a pity. I think i'll change my R260X with the incoming Rx470 and i will use it on Poem, Seti and others gpu projects. 5Tflops for less than 200$ is not so bad and i hope to use it on gpugrid....


Very true. I will replace my 7790 with RX 470, very similar situation...


7790 ?? Could it be a 7970 ? One of the best double precision cards?
You can make good credis at milkyway or maybe soon at universe, they are working on a dp amd opencl app.

Might make sense to delete old wu's.
My account shows still wu's from 2013 and 2014, failed Android wu's. I'm pretty shure noone needs them anymore.

I too am waiting for ATI wu's.

Have the following setting:
ACEMD short runs (2-3 hours on fastest card): yes
ACEMD long runs (8-12 hours on fastest GPU): no
Molecular Docking (Android): no
Molecular Dynamics for CPU and AMD GPUs (Windows): yes
Quantum Chemistry (Linux, CPU): no
Test wu's: yes
