My last successful Long Run was 30 Jan. I keep getting messages about Long Runs failing to execute when there are ZERO Long Runs present on the server

I have a 12 thread CPU. Very few of the MT tasks fail to run.

This is my question also. Poem has folded its doors and shutdown. The number of tasks in the field has dropped by almost 30% the number of new tasks to send has dropped to almost zero almost all the time now. This is not a server problem, it appears to be an admin problem in creating work to send.

No work is being created to send to participants This is not an issue with server thruput, rather has the GPUGrid team run out of IDEAS for research?

I will say that MOST of the wu's that show up beyond Early May are Aborted, Timed Out, or Error in Computing.

I see NO PENDING RESULTS.

Still say, Purge the data off the server, but leave the user history as that is MUCH smaller dataset than the data we work on

I see wu's for a few months this year. Then it jumps about a year, then data for a few weeks, then jumps another year.

These are either Completed or Error in Computing, not Pending

Big Jumps in History

Makes not much sense to the User to Purge the User history, once the series of Gerard, Noelia, etc data is run and data results moved to external databases.

We want to see the history.

You appear to only want to show present series on the servers, and only show the user the last several weeks, or months of history.

Makes little sense outside of the research the team is involved in

Purge the data, leave the history
7) Message boards : Graphics cards (GPUs) : NVidia GPU Card comparisons in GFLOPS peak (Message 41179)
Posted 3255 days ago by Robert Gammon
I wish that the web site would allow us to mine the dataset as apparently some have been able to do.

Wish God would give us the ability to see the differences in runtimes over a long period versus the GPUs that we have and the ones we may buy sometime

For example,
I recently added a EVGA GTX960 (4G RAM about USD $240)
I wish to compare the performance of this pair on GPU work units directly

At this point only GTX960, two GTX760, and one GTX550 exist

I can see wus returned thru the first of May 2015

But a BIG gap in data returned, as the next wus are from April 2014

My data reported to this site and the various stats sites do not show this error

My reported results show a near continuous rise over time

I just aborted a short run Noelia that was stuck at 0.88% with indicated runtime completion in over 25,000 hours.

I saw NOTHING in the log file updated

This SAME card is running a Long Run Gerard normally incrementing percent upwards, estimating run time is dropping every few seconds.

This a GTX550Ti running on a Xeon 2620 under Ubuntu Linux 15.04 updated with all updates installed with Nvidia Drivers 246.59

This is not an overclocked card, stock setting. no options on Nvidia Settings (I did have the fan control and overclock options at one time, but even when i did it, I could NOT overclock only REDUCE clock)

And the PS is 1050W rated and the CPU is running at 51C

OOPS, this is on a GTX550, not a GTX760
