1) Questions and Answers : Windows : NO Downloads (Message 38127)

But what\'s it asking for? If it wants GPU work, it\'ll never get any from CPDN.

Open the Advanced view in BOINC Manager, select the Projects tab, highlight CPDN, and click the \'Properties\' button (last button in upper group). Look under \'Scheduling\' at the second line: \"CPU work fetch priority\". That\'s the long-term debt Thyme Lawn was talking about. If it\'s below -86,400 BOINC won\'t request new work unless all your other projects have run dry. It\'ll slowly creep back upwards towards zero, and as it crosses the -86,400 line, you should see work requested again. You can help it along by adjusting Resource Share, suspending other projects, and waiting.


Thanks for the reply did as you said and by the look my wait is going to be a very long one as it shows nearly -500000 as the work fetch priority,though why its so high dont know as havent been connected to other projects nearly as long.Still will keep going with project rather than leave as I was thinking of doing now I know reason,thanks again for help!

Their results show that George and Tim\'s hosts are both running BOINC 6.6.36 and (from their linked S@H accounts) both systems have a GPU card. My guess is that they both have a CPDN long term debt > 86400 seconds (1 day), in which case CPDN can\'t fetch any CPU tasks. That doesn\'t prevent BOINC from trying to fetch GPU work for CPDN (in case the project has added a GPU application, which it hasn\'t and isn\'t planning to do). If long term debt isn\'t the problem they could be hitting one of the CPU work fetch problems known to be in 6.6.36.

Thanks for the reply have updated to latest version and tried update ,unfortunately doesn`t seem to have worked still getting message from server no work sent \"repeatedly\".Will hang on for a while before I give up completely and stick with other projects.

I keep getting this type of message but I have had no work for some time and wondered why? Can anyone help or do I give up/disconnect and continue with the other projects I`m running only,I do know that my % for this is only 10% but the other projects get more than there time allocated as I just leave them all running ?

Hi,

The Slab model runs in three phases, in each of the three phases the timesteps go from zero to 259000. So in total you\'re 118,000 timesteps through 777,000.

Thanks for the info and sorry for late reply, work!!

my model is showing i`ve nearly done 118000steps out of 259000 steps yet the percentage completed is only showing just over 15% any ideas .the time on model is around 79hrs with 405hrs to go which would equate correctly to the percentage but not timestep wise?sorry if question been asked before.

I have had a look at my credits for cpdn and i`ve noticed that i have been getting lower credits than other parties on one result in particular i only received c.19500 credits yet someone else that had completed a project that was some 10years behind in timesteps had received over c.20000 credits ,why is this?I dont know without looking further if I have other result`s like this.

See this thread about trickles and credits.

Laptops are not a good idea unless you\'re prepared to \'baby sit\' them.
They are designed for intermittent use, so their cooling and hard disks aren\'t as robust as a desktop.

If you do use it, for as much time as possible, support the base well above the desk; keep the cooling vent very clean; backup the entire hd regularly, in case of a disk failure.

To speed up the model processing, DON\'T use a screen saver; it uses a lot of the processor\'s time. Set Windows to None, or Blank.


its sat on a cooler which keeps the old temp down when running that and I can keep an eye on it helps as im idle thanks to a frozen shoulder. I`ve also done what you suggested will see if it helps thanks

Reading the number crunching forum will tell you that there is an issue on the server end, it is being looked into, but the staff is down some people, and it may be a few more days before all is going normal, again.

Thanks for the prompt reply I hope the staff are soon up and running again and I will just keep an eye on things not that im bothered about my stats its the experiment that counts
