1) Message boards : Number crunching : GFLOPS backwards (Message 76938) Posted 21 Feb 2024 by benscott Post: A problem I have seen for a long time is the GFLOPS number for each work unit. The more GFLOPS the faster the unit runs! For example: 4079 GFLOPS about 3 hours 30 minutes run time. 65284 GFLOPS about 20 minutes run time. A side effect of this is that when one of those 65284 GFLOP work units is downloaded BOINC thinks it will take a full day to run and doesn't download anything else until it finishes.
