When the N-Body Ver. 1.62 begins running all progress % stops on the (7) remaining CPU Bundle5 Tasks and the status changes to "waiting to run".

The GPU Ver. 1.43 tasks continue to crunch but the completion time changes to 3 Min. 55 Sec. from the 4 Min. 25 Sec. required to complete when the (8)CPU Bundle5 Ver. 1.42 Tasks are running.

The N-Body task completes in 8 Min. 50 Sec. and the CPU Bundle5 tasks restart.

I notice that there are (9)WUs running at once now:

(8) CPU tasks Ver. 1.42 and (1) GPU Ver. 1.43.....I believe it was only (7) and (1) earlier....with the occasional N-Body Ver. 1.62 taking up a CPU.

Wish I had recorded the number of tasks running on each earlier....hate depending on my worn memory.

I have an N-Body coming up.....we'll see what, if anything changes.

Thanks for the reply, Peter

Changes since update on this 'puter.

GPU ver. 1.43:

Bundle5 ~4 min. (prior single WU 19-30 seconds)

CPU still ver. 1.42:

Bundle5 ~1 hr. 25 min. (prior single WU 9-10 min.)

Inconclusive WUs

4 Nov. thru 15 Nov. were 1-3 WUs per day.

16 Nov. 35 WUs so far...11 CPU and 24 GPU

Looks like production is down....Am I reading too much into this?

My 2nd GPU bundle5 unit "ready to report" and reported....no error messages for both.

Like the 1st GPU bundle5 unit, the total elapsed time was 1 hour 17 minutes.

The unit progress returned to 0% @ 40% after ~15 minutes 4 times (the % before returning to 0% increased each time up to 58%). After 4 resets (elapsed time 1hr 2 minutes), the progress % continued up to 100%...."ready to report" & reported.

Looks like a reset of the progress indicator takes place after completion of each of the 1st 4 units in a bundle....then the indicator shows a % for the entire bundle5 unit.

Prior to the update and bundle5 units, each GPU unit would complete in 19 to 33 seconds....on this 'puter.... S/B ~ 2 min 30 sec for 5 old units.

Are the individual units in the new bundle of 5 units bigger than the old units?

1 GPU bundle5 WU made the trip.

The 1st GPU bundle5 unit was "ready to report" and reported after 1:17:09 and several progress resets to 0% at ~40%.

The 2nd GPU bundle5 progress reset to 0% @ 38% with 15 min. elapsed. Will see if it finishes.

~15 minutes X 5 = ~1 hour and 15 minutes.....is the progress simply resetting to 0% after each unit in the bundle of 5 units is completed?

OOOPs.....similar here Werkstatt.

1st GPU bundle5 unit jumped back to 0% when it reached ~40% complete.

CPU units are still crunching through to completion.

Just after "download of milkyway_1.40_windows....", the 'status' of all remaining GPU tasks (27) changed to "Computation error" (no error number displayed)

Got new tasks...."Remaining (estimated)" on '7 new tasks' 01:10 to 02:11.....the old tasks (CPU) estimates were ~25 minutes.

Hello Jake and all

New guy here......just wanted to let you know my 'user average' jumped from ~3200 on 26 Oct to 14,500 today, 28 Oct.

I have changed nothing.....looks like your change made a difference here.

Glad to be with you all.
