Welcome the uprise from 12 to 20 units in queue but for GPU-crunchers it would be necessary that it be raised to 1000 or more.... With 20 units/core in a dual core PC means reserve of 4 minutes of work.... I think this is where some of the short supply comes in at. The Gpu's keep wanting work. Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. |

The Gpu's keep wanting work. Well, somebody's got to do it. |

The Gpu's keep wanting work. *LOL* But we poor CPU crunchers want work, too!!!  Lovely greetings, Cori

The Gpu's keep wanting work. Hey, I'm a CPU cruncher as well. You hum it, and I'll crunch it. With my network card if Cluster Physik and speedimic get round to it ;P |

... With my network card if Cluster Physik and speedimic get round to it ;P Now there's an idea.  Lovely greetings, Cori

Can I crunch on my scsi card? Its just sitting there idle!! |

Can I crunch on my scsi card? Its just sitting there idle!! I've got internal USB 2.0 cards and PS/2 ports doing nothing. What about my power unit? That ought to be cruching with it's own fan an' all... |

Can I crunch on my scsi card? Its just sitting there idle!! oohhh---I bet that would keep it nice and cool! And you could always bump it from 110 to 220 for that extra "kick"! |

Well, I do both ... and have troubles off and on with both kinds of systems. BUT, it is more of a killer on the one system with the GPU as I get left with an idle GPU. That is one reason I am eagerly anticipating the next project that has a CUDA application so I can have a back-up project for the bulk of my cards... |

Go to 3 phase next, bump it up to 480v. :P You'll need it if you fill all those ports with something crunching. Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. |

Can I crunch on my scsi card? Its just sitting there idle!! I've got a sound card that's silent and idle far too often. Give it some work to do! ;P |

Can I crunch on my scsi card? Its just sitting there idle!! You are all gluttons for punishment! There aren't enough WUs to keep the cpus and gpus busy and you want to port it to additional hardware? Focus people. Focus! Every time I checked today, several of my boxes were sitting idle and it takes up to a dozen updates to get them to download work. I don't think the issue is http connections since when they report the completed WUs, that works fine and they still don't get any new work. |

I have a bunch of thumb drives sitting here! Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. |

Can I crunch on my scsi card? Its just sitting there idle!! Yes but, I'd have a cache in that card, that card, and that card, as all as the big red brick called a GPU which spits 'em out faster than this chap can bongo ;)  |

My GPU machine is the only one that isn't getting any work. I have SETI as a secondary at 0.10% and Rosetta at 0.52%. I have to pause both of those projects before I get any milkyway units at all which is set for 99%. |
