Re: Suggestions for v7

(a) The Windows systray client allows a degree of dynamic management, such as your -oneunit suggestion. We're in agreement; it's a nice feature, but an implementation which supports neither local nor remote-computer autonomous (software-driven) control. (b) Changing the number of smp cores isn't si...

Re: Suggestions for v7

[Given my shallow understanding of the underlying workings/controls/options of folding, my suggestions are brazen and bound to demonstrate some miss-understandings! Note that I'm folding in a Win7 environment [1055t+2GPU's & q6600+GPU]... not that I see where it changes any suggestions, below.] ...

Re: Project: 6701 (Run 24, Clone 15, Gen 34) ???

I know this doesn't help you, but since you reported this WU in this forum, I'm just confirming it was not a bad WU. It was successfully completed and returned by another folder. ... -I- am probably that other folder. Once I found it was the GPU setting that was retarding the SMP work, I set the SM...

Re: Project: 6701 (Run 24, Clone 15, Gen 34) ???

... I ran a dozen tests, and got fed up editing this post to explain each in detail. In summary: if I shut down the GPU's, the SMP clicked off a % of the WU every 11 minutes. If I ran the GPU's with "nocpulock=0" [the default setting] the SMP slowed 30-40% -- which would be expected as the...

Re: Project: 6701 (Run 24, Clone 15, Gen 34) ???

Try disabling your SMP service and see what % cpu your GPU's are using while folding. I've found the ATI cards can use a ton of CPU while folding - though not enough to yield those low results... Are you sure all of the cores are being utilized for folding? It might be worth trying -smp 5 in your c...

Project: 6701 (Run 24, Clone 15, Gen 34) ???

(This is my first trouble report: apologies if I've failed miserably!) System: Win 7 x64, AMD 1055t@3.36GHz, 4GB RAM@800MHz, (R5750 & R4350 folding as well); SMP running as a service, GPU's as consoles. SLOOOooowwwwwww..... far slower than anything I've noticed in my previous 1600 WUs. Nothing i...

Re: Daily User Summary file statistics

Nope, there is no merging in the official stats (though some 3rd party stats sites do). If you enter your email account as your FAH name, the ISP portion (the @ and what follows it) will not be displayed as an anti-spam feature. The full name is still used internally. Thus the following three accou...

Daily User Summary file statistics

Curiosity lead me to download and look into the DUS file... then to compare their growth/change -- 11/20 vs 11/23. 'Wrote a PERL script to compare their data; may have some bugs in the script, but most of the results are probably correct. I was surprised (disappointed) to find only 3.5% of the accou...
