Project: 8900 (Run 153, Clone 0, Gen 70)

Post by v00d00 »

These are the ones ive found so far, but i suspect its dumped many more. But reading through the frankly schizophrenic log format is hard on the eyes, so i gave up after 2 files worth.

Project: 8900 (Run 153, Clone 0, Gen 70)
Project: 8900 (Run 647, Clone 1, Gen 64)

Hardware is a stock GTX 460 running on Fedora 18. Fan works fine, temperatures are within limits, and its processing (and completing) other projects fine, just not this one.

Some log excerpts.

It would make it a lot easier if the web client didnt dump its debug info into the main log file. I suppose i can get rid of it by dropping verbosity, but then i might lose other useful info. Would be nicer if the webclient had a webclient.log, and we could go back to having a separate log file for each slot, because at present its a bit of a nightmare to read it.

Project: 8900 (Run 153, Clone 0, Gen 70) -> 2 failures and 1 success.
Project: 8900 (Run 647, Clone 1, Gen 64) -> 1 failure and 1 success.

What do you mean by "other projects fine, just not this one", do you mean only these WUs or all WUs from Project 8900. Are you successfully folding Project 7810 and 7811 on your GPU?

Since the current log is combination of all slots, have you tried to use the log filter in Advanced Control (AKA FAHControl)? It does make it easier to read but you are limited only to the current log and not the previous logs.

If you have changed the verbosity level to higher than the default of 3, it is strongly recommended that it be changed back. A higher verbosity level gives little useful information and gets in the way of debugging problems.

You can look at what each of your folding units is putting into the log file by clicking on the box next to Unit: and then choosing which Unit from the little down arrow just to the right of it; doing that you can look at what each individual unit is putting into the log file.
I'm folding because Dec 2005 I had radical prostate surgery.

I understand your desire (and personally agree with it), but I suspect it's not going to work. The FAHClient and each FahCore are developed independently. The V7 verbosity setting applies to FAHClient. I know of no way to reduce the verbosity of the FahCore -- but if you find one, be sure to let us know.

I know Bruce. It wont happen. I guess i could write a parser to separate out the useful stuff.

@Joe_H, i used to run verbosity 9 on every client since v3, so i just set this one to max like i normally did, also it used to be a requirement for those participating in beta, in case things went wrong and the extra info was needed. If you are saying it generates sufficient info at verbosity 3 to debug workunits and problems in the client, then i will reduce it.
@Panther, yes i am completing/have completed several 7810/7811 without any problems. I have completed 4 in the logs ive already looked at, and ive seen others in the last couple of days. But i am dumping all P8900 with those state errors.
@7im/rickoic, i dont actually have an FAHControl. Only things installed are FAHClient and FAHCoreWrapper. Ive used it on windows a couple of times, but it wasnt all that useful, except for i guess looking at log files. Im more of a console guy. But we've had that conversation before. For now i just wrote a bash script to give me the info i need. I'll hack together something better when i have some free time.

I have generated a dump of all errored P8900's. just as a FYI. All sent back with the error: FAULTY

Code: Select all

P8900 (Run518, Clone 1, Gen 78)
P8900 (Run732, Clone 1, Gen 87)
P8900 (Run303, Clone 1, Gen 79)

P8900 (Run647, Clone 1, Gen 64)
[edit]
I've decided to drop GPU off beta/advanced for now, and i'll retry it in a month or two.

The verbosity 9 setting in V6 passed a parameter to the FahCores which increased the verbosity of some of the FahCores. That was sometimes useful for the Cores that were involved in beta at the time and that could be helpful in debugging the core and/or WU. You're asking to reduce the verbosity of a FahCore.

Also (as I said) the V7 verbosity=N setting only applies to messages from FAHClient, not from the FahCore. Getting more messages from the client has not been found to be useful.

Is your GTX 460 having default frequencies or is it running a factory overclock? If is it having a factory overclock, you may have to flash your GPU to the default frequencies and see if it happens again.

Is there sufficient VRAM on your system? The reason is that Project 8900 is currently the largest one for FahCore_17 so that might be causing the issue. Is your PSU powerful enough to handle the GPU load?

@Panther, default, stock clocks, 1 GB Ram (maybe its this thats the problem), i never considered the possibility it may need more than 1GB ram, i will add buying a new GPU to my list of things, i suppose it was always going to happen that GPUs would need more ram to process workunits. What should i aim for, 2GB or 3GB? Im in budget for maybe a GTX580 with 3GB, and ive found one for less than the price of a GTX660, brand new i might add. Also PSU is an Antec HCG-750 and its nowhere close to being taxed (at around 480w currently).

@Bruce. Thanks, that clears it up i will get rid of verbosity. What setting would you recommend? I have it on 3 currently, is it worth dropping to 2 or 1?

The VRAM requirement depends on the usage of your GPU. If it is dedicated to folding and nothing else runs on the system, 1 GB would be fine for now but I would settle for 2 GBs just to be sure. However, if you are running other applications, that might cause an issue since an increasing number of applications are now using the GPU and thus, you may be hitting a VRAM limitation without even knowing it unless you monitor the VRAM usage in real-time. One issue is that the application thinks that it "owns" the GPU and thus, all the VRAM is available to it which causes issues when other applications too are using it. Since there isn't a concept of swap space yet for GPU, unexpected behavior may result in this situation.

I did encounter the VRAM issue with my GTX 260 SOC 896 MB and FahCore_11 returned an error that didn't even relate to the lack of VRAM. I noticed this since I was monitoring my VRAM in real-time and thus was able to reproduce it and confirm that insufficient VRAM causes issues. Here's the error in case you were wondering:

Few people remember the hassles of RAM management before WinXP. Win3.x did have a paging file so it was better than older OSs but it still had fragmentation issues and you got strange errors if you ever filled up virtual memory. Managing GPU VRAM is a lot more like MSDOS than even Windows 3.x. Stream Computing is still in it's infancy. FAH's GPU code is written to use very little VRAM, so as PX suggests, you probably won't be wishing you had more VRAM if you're just running FAH plus a monitor that's not outfitted with a massive number of pixels. That changes if you have multiple monitors and/or very high resolution screen settings.
