I've started some new separation runs: de_separation_17_sSgr_1 de_separation_18_sSgr_1 de_separation_19_sSgr_1 de_separation_20_sSgr_1 ps_separation_17_sSgr_1 ps_separation_18_sSgr_1 ps_separation_19_sSgr_1 ps_separation_20_sSgr_1 These are continuing the search for the secondary streams in the Northern Galactic Cap. Let me know if you see anything strange with them! [Aside: I should have the new science page up in a day or two!] -Matthew N. |

No errors as of yet here. But you might want to adjust the credit given because these are taking longer for completion. Regards John G |

Both the de17 and 18's along with the ps 17 and 18's are taking up to 40 sec. more time to complete. Regards John G |

We get more credits for them, up to 320,63 and according to my calculation that's pretty much exactly the same credit/time ratio as for the WUs we had until now, my HD3850 (or actually half of it) still needs 5.07 seconds to earn 1 credit.

The credit should be proportional to the length of the work unit - the credit is determined by the code based on the number of floating-point operations that are required to complete the job. This formula has has worked perfectly in the past, so I suspect that these new jobs are rewarding the correct credit. |

I'm having issues on one of my systems, and I'm not sure why. My faster system (PMason_XPS630i) seems to be having issues with all of the new files. The current set are all: ps_separation_17_sSgr_1_1358941502_132204xx_0 They all have a Computation Error between 1:21 - 1:29 into working on the files. Interestingly, my older system (PMason_XPS600) runs them just fine. Ah, I think I just saw what was going on...my newer system is attempting to do them using Milkyway@Home 1.02 (opencl_nvidia), whereas my older system "Your GPU lacks double precision extension" - so, looks like CPU is running the files (using Milkyway@Home 1.0) vs. GPU. Recommendations? Thanks! Paul |

@Tylendol: the errors occur not only on GPU, but also on CPU and the error messages are all pretty much the same. Have you tried turning it off and on again?

@Link Thanks for the suggestion. I actually thought I would start fresh and rebooted. Only in the PC World does that ever seem to correct things. Oddly, it did - it's working fine now, go figure. Thanks! Paul |
