This drop looks like some servers stopped folding maybe 1000 server rack slots with 2x cpus and 8x gpus each outputting 10 TFlops?
Hopefully they get replaced by new hardware and come back with double the performance.
What Happened to 40 Petaflops?

Re: Flop Drop
Summer. It's hot. People stop folding, or reduce their overclock speed. Contributions have always been seasonal. You have been folding long enough to know that.WMCheerman wrote:I have noticed in the last couple of weeks a steady decline in FLOPS, from a high of about 106 petaflops through today it is around 88 petaFLOPS. Does anyone have any thoughts on this sudden decline? I noticed also the users have drop of has well from just over 100k to in the low 90sK. Is this related to some of the servers going offline? I have also wondered maybe people are switching to NVIDIAs new 1080 & 1070 graphics cards and those cards having issues with F@H? This drop just seems so odd especially after we just got to 100 petaFLOPS.

And vacation time too so some production may be off while people are away.

Think of thousands of college student slaving away three quarters of the year, deciding to not turn on their computer all summer.

Re: Flop Drop
It's too hot in the Los Angeles area. My machines are turned off for the afternoons.
Then, too, there are quite a few machines set for CPU:7 and they've stopped getting assignments. A fix is in the works.
From the Blog post, FLOPS are, in fact, up.
