32-bit Linux a tiny bit slower than before
64-bit Linux 20% or 10 minutes slower than v0.07 (?) but much better than 0.10

Let me know if the performance issues have been fixed.

Hi there ... Im probs on the wrong thread.
I detached from the project to get rid of the sse3 app and load your standard new app.
Im running xp64 on my e4500 and now the WU's are taking about 59 mins for 39 credits compaired to 41 mins for 40 credits a week ago.

Anyone else having the same problems ?

@ Travis: Why don't you just put out test runs instead of screwing with everyones computers? You're the one who stresses the need for testing the new apps. 6 version in a few days is too many.
Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected?
If it makes sense, DON'T do it.

this project is still alpha, which means the whole thing is a test - so, in my opinion, no need for tests inside a test...

I think more time should be spent on one version checking the changes to the code and not making a change or two at a time. And atleast test it on the lab's computers to see if it even runs before a release. It would help eliminate the times that the app doesn't run and causes a load of wu's to be rejected.

We're pretty limited with the different CPUs/architectures that we have to test on at the moment. The apps have been running fine for me, but it seems that it isn't the case for other people.

Updates to the stock app should not cause any WUs to be rejected, the only changes lately have been in compiler flags. If WUs are being rejected, let me know.

On 1 sample, I have seen a 5% faster time with .12. Not sure if that is in the noise or not.

Hy,

Ubuntu 64 bits version 0.12 around 5400 s 56 minutes much better than 0.10.
Still 0.07 the best in time around 42 minutes for my computer.

On vista 32 bits no change around same time 0.07, 0.10 and 0.12.

On my Mac Pro I have not seen that v0.12 is different from 0.10 ...

Roughly 23-24 minutes ... because there is some variation in the run times it is hard to pin down ... along with the fact that you don't leave much history in the database (I know, other problems, but it makes it hard to go back and calculate a real time average) ...

All in all, I would say that there has been no change ...

0.12 is running at about 57 minutes per woek unit, 0.07 was running at about 55 minutes per work unit. That's on an Athlon XP 3000+ clocked at 2.17 GHZ running Kubuntu 8.04.1

HTH,

Rob.

On AMD 285 Linux Fedora Core 6, times for v0.07 and v0.12 are the same, no change at all.

Travis, do you know why, this host :

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/results.php?hostid=41246 ( Linux 64 )

has granted credit = 0 ???

I am using the offcial app V0.12 !

I try to detach and reattach but same problem. I try with Speedimic v0.12 optimized application but still no point ?

I put this machine in NMW until you can find what happens !

sp0wn

edit :

All those Wus are 0 Credit granted !

Those ones are using official V0.12 app :


http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=63033709

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=63033710

[url]http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=63033713


Those one are using Speedimic SSE4.1_X86_64 optimized app :

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=63040284

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=63042064

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=63042087

only that one receive credit !

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=63042065

Before asking, this machine is not O/C....

Hi,

Opteron 170, 2,0 GHz, XP 32 : 3300 sec average, v10 and V12
Core2Duo 4300, 2,0 GHz, Ubuntu 64 : 4600 sec average V12 (7300 sec average V10)
Core2Quad 6600, 2,4 HZz, Ubuntu 64 : 3900 sec average V12 (6200 sec average V10)

So, V12 is undoubtly faster.
From memories, I would say say V12 is faster than V7 under Windows XP 32.
For sure, and completion times show it, Linux 64 V12 is undoubtly slower than V7 (about 30% slower).

Other hint for compiling : I doubt that my old Opteron (server version of the socket 939 Athlon 64 x2) could beat my Quad 6600 (both @ stock clock). I know, architecture are not the same, but the gap is not normal. The Linux 64 version lacks optimizations.

Good luck

V.7 and v.12 are running the same on OS X for mini core duo and MacBook core 2 duo. This is back to twice as fast as the intervening versions.

Yes, but why the state is invalid ?

I make some research and my first Wu to get 0 credit was that one :

http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/result.php?resultid=62999767

I was using speedimic app (SSE4.1) from that thread :
