Folding Forum

Well noted.

However, I chose to plot the maximums since you originally were asking for a potential bottlenecks, if I understood correctly. Showing the peaks could be of more use.

Anyway, hope it helps.

I am getting much smaller numbers using 2 x 5080. In Ubuntu, using nvidia-smi as below: nvidia-smi dmon -i 0 -s u -d 1 -o DT > gpu0_pcie.log nvidia-smi dmon -i 1 -s u -d 1 -o DT > gpu1_pcie.log Polled every second for over 3 hours while folding. Then I plotted the values in a chart only drawing the ...

I was also very curious, so I did some rough numbers (more like I went down the rabbit hole)... At some point, that user was folding with 37 clients, averaging slightly over 40m PPD per client, therefore likely 37 5090s. Cheapest 16 x 5090 I've found online go for ~$10/hour. 2 clusters = 32 => ~$20/...

Yes, I am familiar with folding.extremeoverclocking.com However, there is one main (understandable due to constrains) limitation: It is only possible to see detailed daily info for the past 1.5 days, detailed weekly info for the past 13 days, and son on. As time goes on, detailed info is not longer ...

I have been thinking of running a script locally on each of my computers folding in order to keep detailed track of my folding contribution as well as performance. Also, running it locally would allow me to keep historical records for as long as I want. I recently learnt about the possibility of vie...

Don't know, got that impression, Glad it didn't.

Thanks again.

Did my question bother you? I am simply trying to understand. I do not know why CPU folding is so unpopular, never really thought about it. Now that you mention it, a viable solution would be to increase the points awarded for CPU projects, that would get people folding on them (assuming those same ...

Can you explain what do you mean by "too powerful"? Science wise it would make more sense to have GPUs doing "light" tasks than to have hundreds (or perhaps thousands) of GPUs idling. Wouldn't it?

4080, 4080 Super, 5080, 5090.

Same here, it has been happening for over a week now. Out of 12 GPUs, 7 have been retrying to download WUs for days with no luck. 23:54:24:I1:OUT4:> POST https://assign1.foldingathome.org/api/assign HTTP/1.1 23:54:24:E :Exception: Failed to prevent sleep: Transport endpoint is not connected 23:54:25...

I have a couple of 5090s that I could try this on. However, I am not running fah-client.service (my setup doesn't allow it), but rather as a command on a (Ubuntu) terminal windows that remains open. Can you please help me figure out a workaround with no service? I'll let it run for a week or so on b...

Thank you arisu.

I imagine there must have been a LOT of testing combinations of different settings to get this. Respect!

Update:

After checking on one of the boxes, which was left attempting to log in for a few hours, I got the following

Hi, I have 5 folding rigs which run 24/7, mostly unsupervised. While checking my stats today, I noticed a problem (big drop) 👇🏻 https://snipboard.io/KbNrju.jpg Then, upon trying to check from https://v8-4.foldingathome.org/machines only the 1 machine running MacOS (the other 4 are running Ubuntu) wa...

Wow, that's some power...

I wonder what it will crunch on Ubuntu/Linux.
