TPU's Rosetta Milestones and Daily Pie Thread

[phill]

Here's our small teams up date for the Rosetta Pie for the 12th May 2020....

And now for the milestones of the day!!

@ TPU!!
@phill !!
@xvi !!

We'll be hitting that million point milestone by the end of the weekend I'm sure!! Great work everyone!! These work units are a touch long but they do seem to be fairly good rewarding units, so works ok I guess

See you all tomorrow

 

[phill]

And now for the Rosetta Pie for the 13th May 2020!!

And now for the milestones of our Rosetta team....

@ TPU!!
@mstenholm !!

Congrats to everyone surpassing their milestones today!! Very great work there guys!! Can't wait to pass this 1m points marker and I wonder if anyone else will join us.....

I didn't really consider my hardware old until I started worrying about PPD again. When I fired them up, I started to realize they're getting a bit long in the tooth. The combined PPD is decent, but there's definitely a lot of hardware working for it.
I'd like to replace my i3-4170 box with an AMD rig, but I think I'll wait for the 4000-series before I weigh my options.
The i7-6700 is my work PC, the i7-6700K is my laptop (with an English Breakfast airflow mod). The server is definitely ancient and makes the rest of the gear feel more modern to me, but it certainly feels like a wooden club compared to mstenholm's surgical Ryzen scalpels.

Sager/Clevo/Eurocom? I've got mine undervolted by 0.1v and bumped up to 4.2GHz but it's still spitting fire out the back, yeah.

Apologies there @xvi ... I was waiting for a thread update from the legandary w1zzard

I've gone slightly along the lines of not so much the PPD but the wattage efficiency with any of the crunching I'm doing.. I don't mind having my EVGA SR-2 running but sucking away 330w+ or something and not doing much is frustrating especially when things take so long to complete on them It's a massive shame as I love the hardware (one reason why I keep hold of it) but these Ryzen's are on another level...

As you might have noticed in one of the WCG threads I've updated one of the threads and the 3900X I have seems to sip power at full load with all 24 threads going along and now thankfully, it's not going past 60C under the 100% load...

I need to go tweak my two 1700X's as they are just set to stock and well, they need to be tweaked!

My 6700k for my laptop was in a HP laptop, it wasn't good.. I couldn't change or do anything with the RAM or locking the CPUs at a higher speed so I just gave up with it. Left it hit a 1m points and turned it off lol (something like that)

I've gone slightly along the lines of not so much the PPD but the wattage efficiency with any of the crunching I'm doing..

Yeah, I've been leaning that direction quite a bit too. Most machines I have going now are plugged in somewhere that utilities are included, so I don't mind as much. Even with free power, I still try to keep it reasonable. The dual Xeon is the only exception just because it's still got some grunt.
On the topic of power efficiency, I've just fired up a little NUC with a Pentium J4205 in it. I've got it churning away on WCG right now to see what PPD it can do, but it's currently pulling 12.5w from the wall while maintaining ~2.25GHz on all cores, so I'm expecting a nice result. I'm pretty excited to see how that goes, actually.

 

[phill]

I've got to the point @xvi that I'd rather keep fewer machines running that can produce some ok to decent results rather than just struggle and take days to complete a single result. The two servers I have take over 24 to 30 hours if not more to complete one of the Africa project units, as I don't often (if at all) run them for more than 10 hours a day (and that's only if the sun is out!!) they won't get much done. So I'm just sticking with things until they do get to the point of taking far too long for something.

Kinda reminds me of back in 2006 when I had a Epia VIA CPU setup and used it as my 'server' at home. My god that thing was terribly slow... Used to take 4 days I think to complete a work unit!! That was back in 2006 or so as well, I guess they where a lot smaller then than they are now

 

[phill]

And now for some Rosetta results from the 14th May 2020....

And now for the milestones of the day.....

@ TPU!!

Great effort guys!! Wonder if we can surpass a million points before Monday??!!
Awesome effort!! Thank you!!

 

[xvi]

Anyone else get the feeling that Rosetta is a little less friendly at sharing resources than WCG? I can usually run WCG in the background without really noticing it but Rosetta seems like it's making things a bit slower.

If not, it won't be for a lack of trying.

It's definitely a bit of a resource hog.. Couple of times now I've seen my 6700k using up to 9GB of RAM with it's 8 threads running just this through Linux..

Does seem to spit out some good points for the work units though

I will have to learn how to grab a screen shot in Linux. My 16 GB/16 thread combi has come to a halt and my 16 GB/14 thread WCG plus two GPUs folding had more than one stops that only could be re-solved with an on/off. Similar for the 24 thread/16 GB. I have to limit the number of running Rosetta WUs. Well it keeps me on my toes

 

[phill]

@mstenholm The only thing that I can suggest is that for at least each thread you have, make sure you have at least 1GB of RAM in the system (just goes in general as well I find..).... I'm rather glad I bought the 5 sets of 32GB sets when I did... They seem to be proving their worth

 

[phill]

And now for the Rosetta Pie update for the 15th May 2020....

And now for the milestones of the day......

@ TPU!!
@mstenholm !!
@xvi !!

Congrats to our team for surpassing 950,000 points for our Rosetta cause!! Awesome work everyone!! @mstenholm and @xvi congrats on that 200,000 point marker as well Really great stuff!! I'll hopefully be behind you at some point!!

Hopefully tomorrow then should have us over the 1m point marker and with our newest member @Boatvan we'll get to 2m points even faster Massive thanks to you sir for contributing and joining the team!!

 

[phill]

And last but certainly not least, we have the Rosetta pie for the 16th May 2020....

And now for the milestones of the day....

@ TPU!!!
@Boatvan !!

Amazing!! As predicted as well, we'd be over the million points marker before the end of the weekend And to top it off we have another member join, @Boatvan ... How amazing it willl be!!

Bit earlier than last night, so I'm going to make like a tree and get out of here!!

Massive thanks guys for the support!!

 

[phill]

Well here goes for the 17th May 2020 for the Rosetta Pie....

Amazing efforts from our stoners today and our very small team in general I couldn't ask for more than what everyone is doing, amazing work and support from you all, so thank you Waiting for tomorrows results

 

[phill]

Thought I'd have a change and so WCG can wait for the update today Rosetta for the 18th May 2020...

And now for the milestones and stoners of the day....

@Boatvan !!

Congrats to our own @Boatvan for passing his next milestone!! Great work as always from @mstenholm for his first place today... Great work from everyone for that matter!! I'll hopefully see you all tomorrow

 

[phill]

And now for the stoners of the day....

@phill !!
@xvi !!

Great work to everyone contributing today It seems our Rosetta team has now gained another member, @om3n- ??!! I'm not sure if they are a member of TPU forums, but hopefully they'll be able to join up and introduce themselves

Great work as always guys, see you tomorrow

 

[phill]

Well here goes for the 23rd May 2020 for some Rosetta Pie....

Massive congrats to all of our members hitting their milestones today Really great work indeed guys!! With only 6 members we seem to be doing rather well indeed!!

 

[phill]

Well here goes for our catch up for the 25th May 2020 for our Rosetta Pie stats....

And now for the milestones!!......

@ TPU!!

Amazing efforts guys Brilliant work

 

[phill]

And now for the final one of the day, Rosetta Pie for the 26th May 2020....

And now for the milestones!!.....

@Boatvan !!
@mstenholm !!

Great work there from our two stoners of the day!! Amazing work and efforts both of you! Can say thank you enough times!! However, I hope to see you both again soon

 

[Peter1986C]

Because of the WCG challenge, I changed BOINC to run WCG again (only allowing OpenPandemics) alongside Rosetta. My output for the latter project might suffer a bit because of that.

 

[phill]

Well here goes nothing for a quick Rosetta Pie update for the 27th May 2020....

And now for any milestones .......

@ TPU!!!!

Great work everyone As a side project for people to do, I think this has been going along really well!! Great work everyone

 

[phill]

Well lets see how things are going for our small Rosetta team for the share of the Pie for 28th May 2020....

And now for the milestones and stoners for the day.....

@mstenholm !!

Great work there my good sir!!

Great scores everyone!! Really great day as always!!
