Silly me, as mentioned above this is my second CPDN. The first actually failed after 300 hours (not 160), but its average sec/TS was 1.90 (not sure if it was overclocked at that time, though). Hmmm....

Thanx @ all!

With this I can update my excel sheet, so after 2:45 hours and 0.118%, there are still 0,507% (or appr. 10hours) left to my first 259.2 credits :)

Its sec/TS is currently 2.02, I hope it\'ll speed up a bit as soon as my SAP is finished. I read that the sec/TS is slower if two climate models run together... (No idea if its the same with a CPDN running with a SAP, though...)

Thanx again! :)

I\'m sure a more experienced user will answer your questions too, but with the little knowledge I have about CPDN, I can tell you that you shouldnt take the deadline too seriously, AFAIK its quite irrelevant. Only thing is that your pc needs to send a trickle message within a certain time frame (4 or 6 weeks) otherwise it will be reissued to another host.

About canceling the wu: IMO, \"No!\" - Perseverance is definitely needed for those big CPDN wu\'s!

On the other hand, I took a look at your previous results: They all broke off with a client error. So its likely that this wu will crash/break off too!

What I have also seen: Your other project is WCG! Its my favorite project also! (Although I neclected it a bit because of the PoTM our Team (BOINC Synergy) has... But I\'m always trying to convince my teammates to crunch more WCG! ;) ) If this CPDN fails too, I would suggest donating the precious cpu cycles to a different but also important/beneficial project (WCG defintely is such a project, IMHO!)

Best regards, Shai aka Steffen



PS: Looking for a team? You could support us with WCG... :)


Btw: I also started BOINCing with an AMD Sempron 2800+... Ahh, those were the days... :D Now it\'s a X2 4600+ EE, tried to make it as energyefficient as possible!

I just downloaded a coupled model. [Its my second actually, my first model had an error after 160 hours or so...] Havent reported my first trickle (whenever this might be...) Its at 0.08% after 1hour 50min...

Anyway, whats a good average sec/TS? I have an AMD X2 4600+ EE @ 2.4GHz...

I\'m about to finish a SAP with 22.4 sec/TS, but I guess thats different. :?

It has 4147560 Timesteps, how many TS are one Trickle actually? And how many credits per trickle are granted? (No rounding please!)

Thanx in advance!

(And yes, I searched this message board ;)
