Hey all,

Separation Modified Fit is releasing v1.28. This version will include:

Fixes for validation and Segfault errors

Hopefully, all will run smooth after this release. I am going to continue letting it crunch the current runs that seem to be working smoothly. If they continue to run smoothly, I will transition to a new run using background model.

As usual please post all errors with the new release here.

Thank You,

Jake W.

I don't run MT tasks because they don't play well with multi-gpu hosts. Best, KB

Separation Modified Fit isn't an MT task - see Applications.

Running WU's on Mac OSX, previous version took about 3-1/2 hrs to complete, new version still running and after 19 hrs they are only 66% complete. Previous WU's were worth 267 credits, what will these be worth?

Errors went down but still getting a decent amount of invalids and heaps of "validation inconclusive".

Error:

Some invalids, have 18 ATM:

Currently using AMD's beta 13.10 drivers which actually seemed to improve things a bit over the 13.8b betas and the driver before that one too, can't remember what I was using.

I notice more invalids (~1%) but noticed that every modfit for computer 119143 is erring. Makes it easier for a valid task to go invalid.

Until the other GPU WUs work, it's no problem, Jake. :)

I will test your next fix.

Hey Guys,

Just looked on the page and it looks like validations errors are < .2% with modified fit. Errors are a little high but it looks like most are people getting OpenCL versions on CAL cards. Otherwise, I am working on the segfault issue still and will try to have a fix out soon.

Thank you,

Jake W

For me, 59 invalid out of 5009 tasks. 1.1% If you increased the max errors, it would help those. 0% from 1.02.

The difference in run times for the 1.28's vs. the 1.26's is enormous...~95,000 seconds (1.28) and 24,00o seconds (1.26)...yikes! And the credit for both are the same at 267.19...double yikes! Looks like there's something wrong with the recipe...time to unplug from processing them again.

Invalids are down considerably. Thanks. I have one cpu 1.26 still showing in history. 8150 secs and about 100 secs more for the new 1.28 (cpu). Intel.

So here is a question for all of you.

I am running win xp sp3 and have a firewall set in clean pc mode.
I have checked to make sure these tasks don't get caught up in it and they don't.
I run with a tiny bit of overclocking (Rosetta is very sensitive to OC so I have it tuned in to their needs). But despite all these checks the tasks die immediately on starting. Any got some ideas or is this just part of the bugs in the code?

It's a known bug they are working on. See the messages above.

Wait and see if 1.38 clears my problem.
I just find it interesting that some of you can actually process these tasks but they crash on my system.

On my machine it looks good with the new 1.28.My first creds since month here.
The older versions get all compute errors.

Stopped running 1.28, not worth it, switched to MilkyWay# home 1.01. Looks like no one else seems to care about the crazy long run times. No comparable projects out there that offer reasonable work value,, the result is I might just drop out of distributed computing all together.
