1) Message boards : Number crunching : Machines runs out of units every few minutes (Message 63014) Posted 14 Jan 2015 by Adrian Taylor Post: I reckon its a combination of a work unit shortage and the very quick turnover in WU... shame cos i have the fastest rig here and its barely heating the room ;-)

2) Message boards : Number crunching : Machines runs out of units every few minutes (Message 63010) Posted 13 Jan 2015 by Adrian Taylor Post: yes i understand that limitation but i don't get anything for quite long periods like now for instance :-) thanks for taking the time to reply

3) Message boards : Number crunching : Machines runs out of units every few minutes (Message 63002) Posted 13 Jan 2015 by Adrian Taylor Post: as the title suggests , my only crunching machine will get a few units, crunch them in a minute or so and then sit there for 15 minutes without downloading any more is there any setting i can add to make it poll for more work more frequently? when i do a manual "update" then i get another few minutes of work hope someone can can help :-) cheers

7) Message boards : Number crunching : can only crunch on 3 out of 4 amd cards (Message 62562) Posted 14 Oct 2014 by Adrian Taylor Post: Hi there for some reason unlike all the other boinc projects i use, this one only sees 3 of the four identical amd 280x i have installed any ideas ?

8) Message boards : News : Apology for recent bad batches of workunits (Message 56002) Posted 29 Oct 2012 by Adrian Taylor Post: i suggest at the least reduce the quorum required before declaring a bad WU even if its a temporary measure

9) Message boards : News : Apology for recent bad batches of workunits (Message 56001) Posted 29 Oct 2012 by Adrian Taylor Post: still running at over 5% errors my machine stats show 400 at any one time now we are in week three of this situation perhaps its time to pull all the rogue WU and start again ? http://teamocuk.co.uk/cprojectcred.php?p=MWAH the graph of output on the link above shows what an effect is being caused is there anything any of us can do to help solve the situation ?

11) Message boards : News : Apology for recent bad batches of workunits (Message 55952) Posted 25 Oct 2012 by Adrian Taylor Post: 4.7% here 323 errors in my one machines stats pretty constantly Please let us know a little more news about these bad units Also the quorum appears too big, 4 machines have to show the same error before the unit is dumped as far as i can see the main problem is that once the boinc client has an error computing it is much less likely to keep the cache full, so unless you nurse your machines they sit there with empty caches a little update would be appreciated :-) cheers

12) Message boards : Number crunching : raspberry pi (Message 55937) Posted 24 Oct 2012 by Adrian Taylor Post: the news today is that broadcom has made the GPU code for the SOC open source http://www.reghardware.com/2012/10/24/raspberry_pi_broadcom_soc_drivers_now_fully_open_source/ in theory this makes it possible to utilize the gpu for milkyway any one sensible enough to have a look ? :-)

13) Message boards : News : Apology for recent bad batches of workunits (Message 55916) Posted 22 Oct 2012 by Adrian Taylor Post: OK loads of errors still is there an end in sight ? i'm running at 270 in my stats for just one machine.. whats happening ? cheers folks
