Some of the first batch of OPN I had have disappeared from my results (think a number of crunchers have seen that), but others that took longer to validate seem to be getting double the number of points!

EDIT:

hmm, half the work I have done is no longer in my results page! I find that rather odd, surely it should be recorded forever?

All is as it should be. The only ones I still have in the result list from the first day is the pending ones. If a job takes two different CPUs to do, they each bring a claim value and from that a new value is deducted. If you had my 5950X or 3900X as a partner one the first day I would have brought 494.7 points so your points would have gone up. My claimed value has now worked its way down to 80-90 per crunching hour from 300 for OPN1, lower for MCM1. The points system is explained somewhere on the WCG official forum. I read about it 10 years ago, now I just take what I get.

Which project link are you using? No matter what - I am not getting any downloads.......

//master.worldcommunitygrid.org/ or this //www.worldcommunitygrid.org/

​

www.worldcommunitygrid.org is what it should be but there's nothing to get again. Apparently there's more hiccups in getting tasks out.

I managed to get 19 OPN1 units on one of my 3 machines this morning. No work for the other 2 machines.

Resends I assume. _1 or _2 at the end of the name. The user detached them. Take a look at properties.
Sorry the information is obtained by pressing on the file name.

 

[Zachary85]

_1 _2 and a couple of _3's to round them out.

I have been offline except this morning. I now learned that something have been going on with ARP. Since I don’t do them and changing the profiles now doesn’t do anything I was wondering if any of you get some? I can see that at least 47 has been sent and returned. Didn’t these jobs take +5 hours? ARP and OPN1 jobs out there

I expect the project to be fully functional early next week, as temperatures are going to be too high to crunch (expecting c.40C temps on Monday and Tuesday, even my Noctua NH-D14 is gonna struggle to keep my CPU cool )

40C? In England? Jeebus.

Yeah, but still people deny man made climate change. Central England is expecting the highest temps on record.

Next month we'll probably have unprecedented floods again somewhere.

Easiest way to deal with the heat is to either leave it off or turn down the CPU speed!! Generally go with the turn down the speed as I do with all my crunchers anyways but 40C of heat, I'm sure the AIO's might have an issue with that.... Will test it shortly and show the temps

How is everyone doing??!!

I missed the ARPs again due to old setting. Did you get any?
@phill check your 3900Xs, one is producing errors in Rosetta, many.

I think there was a few... I noticed that yesterday mate had a look at it today, I think it was the 'underclock' on the CPU.. I've set it now and I'm just testing, hopefully it'll have sorted itself out... We'll live in hope

I just finished downloading a couple of ARP. Took a lot of attempts / retries

I really ought to get more organised and dig out my water cooling kit, get the chiller running again. It'd be complicated trying to get the hot air to blow out the window though

 

[phill]

I was having similar issues as well, it was very hard to get anything to download when receiving work units for some reason...

Anyone else been having any issues??

Just the whole no WUs thing.

I seem to be getting some but some more than others or nothing at all.. They seem to download without you refreshing the system/program as well I've seen, hopefully you'll catch a few soon

 

[debs3759]

Got my CPU underclocked to 3.5 GHz with all voltages reduced as far as Intel Burn Test stable. Core temps are still 15C above ambient, with only my browser running. Bet that by the time I get my water cooling organised, summer will be over

 

[phill]

Has anyone been having any issues with returning results or downloading work that's queued at all? I've had a few downloaded today but not downloaded and its taken a few hours to get the data down to start crunching... I was just curious if anyone else was having the same problems with the downloads

Itś all over the forum these up/download problems.

Water cooling is always a helping hand when it comes to temps, but the ambient temps are always the killer... You can always have masses of cooling but its sometimes just down to the block as well for trying to get rid of the heat from the source... It's always a problem

Itś all over the forum these up/download problems.

I'll have a look and see if there's any word on why its happening. Hopefully they'll be able to get it sorted soon

It took over 2 hours to download 8 OPN1 this morning. They were all re-sends.

Got 41, took a few tries. No resends. It seems that the ARPs, which I didn’t have ticked, are a bit more troublesome.

 

[phill]

Not sure if the Africa work units I have had downloaded this afternoon are resends but they where a big pain to get down... I hope that improves somewhat. The speeds of it were a little slow but they got there eventually. I think I have about 12 units.

 

[debs3759]

I was downloading 2 ARP at a time, but always had 1 fail, so have had to set my system to only download 1 at a time. Not sure if I keep getting dodgy units, or if my system just can't cope with 2.
