Any hint ?

Iirc check point freq in client is for cpu WUs ... gpu checkpoints are set by project owner ... which from your log looks like 2% for that wu

Is this new to this core 22 v0.0.13 ?
This was running as expected with previous core 22 v0.0.11

Edit:

Seems the checkpoints are saved at fixed compute steps:

Code: Select all

17:33:01:WU00:FS01:0x22:  Checkpoint write interval: 100000 steps (2%) [50 total]
17:33:01:WU00:FS01:0x22:  JSON viewer frame write interval: 50000 steps (1%) [100 total]
17:33:01:WU00:FS01:0x22:  XTC frame write interval: 250000 steps (5%) [20 total]
17:33:01:WU00:FS01:0x22:  Global context and integrator variables write interval: disabled

This seems to me too frequent; How can it be modified ?

Posted: **Tue Sep 29, 2020 6:27 pm**

The Project Owner has to modify it. You can only change the settings of WUs to be processed by your CPU.

Posted: **Tue Sep 29, 2020 6:35 pm**

Not new ... fairly sure gpu checkpoints have been set by project owner not client for a fair while - before core 21 iirc ... I think however that checkpointing interval notification may be more explicitly stated to the log in the latest client/core combination

With checkpointing every 2% on an RTX 3080, write speeds would become a problem if you're running on a slow disk, because that means checkpointing more than once per minute.

I am already looking at buying a new SATA III HD and controller for what will soon be the former Windows 7.0 SP1 system. IDE/PATA drives are so 1980's--not worth spending my time with worrying about them crashing and not keeping up with the F@H client anymore.

Once that new drive & controller arrive, I'm installing Fedora on it (so I am no longer dealing w/legacy Windows issues).

You shouldn't need a new HDD controller. Any system powerful enough to fold should have at least sata II interfaces.

FYI, the checkpoint timer was designed for CPU WUs and never used by GPUs. Prior to FahCore_22 version 0.0.13, the checkpoint details would only be mentioned in science.log file. However, to make it easier for donors to understand and for troubleshooting, that information is also now printed in the log file.

The reason why GPUs can't use the feature to create a checkpoint every X minutes is because during the GPU checkpoint, sanity checks and verification needs to run (this explains the jump in CPU usage during the checkpoint) after a certain amount of data has been generated by the GPU to be verified.

I am having second thoughts on that controller, as I think I can still get away with using a SATA III drive on a SATA II supporting motherboard.

That's much clearer, thanks.

Still, would be appreciable to have these parameters adjustable for each configuration.

Using the current codebase for the GPU folding cores this is just not going to happen for a user adjustable parameter. It is adjusted on a per-project basis by the researchers however. Some projects do a checkpoint every 2%, others at up to every 5%. If I recall correctly, the short WUs from the project being used to get benchmarks for different GPUs does its checkpoints every 25%.

I, too, would appreciate being able to adjust it but OpenMM checkpoints can only happen when several internal calculation events coincide, and you don't control those other events. If they don't coincide, the FAHCore wouldn't be able to restart from the checkpoint.

I don't know what factors are considered when deciding checkpoint intervals, but I have to say that I find it inconvenient when I have a WU with a long checkpoint interval. It means that pausing it can waste a fair bit of work. For example right now I'm folding Project:13435 (Run 150, Clone 6, Gen 0). This project checkpoints at every 5% and on my GPU this WU is averaging a TPF (time per frame; effectively time per %) of 7.5 minutes. So if it's at 63% progress and I sit down at my PC and want to do something with the GPU, I either have to wait 15 minutes for it to reach the next checkpoint at 65%, or pause it now and knock it back to 60% and waste the last 22 minutes of work.

This wouldn't be an issue if I had a dedicated folding machine, but unfortunately I only have one decent GPU and it's in the PC I use daily, so folding shares time with gaming.

The tough part is that checkpoints take time/resource to write and the way gpu checkpoints work a global checkpoint interval needs to be set by the researcher that balances lost work when resetting back to a checkpoint and the resource utilisation of creating many checkpoints that are never used .. along with some other science reasons for checkpointing of course ... it may be that at some point in the future gpu cores and a new client may change this but until then it is a case of the slower gpus or those running large wus suffering the inconvenience you mention ... in my case my gpus waste endless resource writing checkpoints that are never used apart from some sanity checking i believe and even then I don't get wu failures on my gpus so those sanity checks are actually productive either .. I wouldn't say no to being able to reduce the number of checkpoints - same functionality just used in the other direction ... but time will tell if we ever get our wishes .. fingers crossed
