Beta test a new revision of FAHCore_a7 on your CPU

Post by bruce »

If you have at least one idle CPU, you can help beta test a new version of FAHCore_a7.

Use client-type=FAH and project-key=1586786562 to get these units and a new version of FAHCore_a7 will download.

This fixes a bug where every time your WU was paused/resumed, unnecessary data is included with the results package being uploaded. Mostly the beta test is intended to look for other bugs that might be present.

To discontinue beta testing, simply remove the project-key setting and let the current WU finish.

Update: this test has been put on hold while a problem is fixed in the new Windows core. It may or may not resume shortly.

The only symptom that it's on hold is that you will not be assigned a WU for the slot with that project-key.

Testing has resumed. Version 0.0.18 is currently only being tested for this one project:11911 . All other projects still use v 0.0.17 of FAHCore_a7 and still have the bug.
