1) Message boards : Number crunching : WUs for GPUs (Message 2321)

Hi AkasPDM,
Not in the short/medium term. We have an idea for a new type of simulations that would greatly benefit from GPU power, but it's a big project.


Any news??

The one you have labelled as optimized....


Optimization of the scientific simulation, not optimization of the app....

I have over 130 wus to report and some news will be welcome during these down
Well, I have about 1100 WUs being added to "pending validation" and have yet to see a single new one being downloaded after uploading/reporting.


Yes, over 150 wus still "pending validation"
Before or later will be validated....

Thanks for any update on the current situation would be highly appreciated...

No, it is the same app, but we are trying a parameters in the simulation far away from the usuall ones. I don't know if it could generate any problem and I prefer to send in the Beta.

Great idea!!

We are testing some modifications in the optimization algorithm, not in the model. It will requiere a lot of time.

No problem. Our cpus are ready to work for you!!

The release, after some times, of the beta app is related to the problems you encountered??
Are you trying to create a new app?
7) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : Does it work on Raspberry Pi (Message 2226)

Post:
Just under 3 hours on a Pi4 at stock 1500MHz, half an hour faster if overclocked to 1800MHz.
I expect at least twice as fast on a Pi5


1,5/2 hrs seems reasonable...(and not bad!)
Maybe a fan on the cpu will help with the temperatures

Yes it works. My RPi3

Wow, over 1 day for a wu with Pi3
I hope that a Pi5 will be faster!! :-P

Raspberry Pi5 seems very interesting for crunching...

I take this opportunity to tell you that the different variations of the optimization are continuing, in some cases it seems that we could obtain better results, but we are going to be cautious, when they are finished we will inform you of the final result.

Good summer everyone.


Great!. Good summer to you

Meantime my first milion point arrived...

1 year later, our gpus are still ready :-P
12) Message boards : Number crunching : Screensaver (Message 2142)
Posted 29 Jun 2023 by [VENETO] boboviz
Post:
It's rare nowadays that project spend some time to implement screensavers, it's a resurgence of the time when boinc was mainly ran in screensaver mode and volunteers would fear about "permanent execution".

I know screensaver it's "old school", but may help to attract new volunteers...

Maybe some GPU tasks of some projects, depending on your configuration / GPU, will make that your machine lag a lot.

There is a post about the use of gpu on Denis, but it's old.
I don't know if they are working on

Jesus has written to me on Twitter.
Now the problem is solved.

Hi!
We have returned from vacation this Monday. Before next Wednesday, we will launch a group of simulations again.


We are ready!!

Ah, ok, thank you (i think that everybody doesn't publish their pcs...)

I tested it now on Odroid-N2+, Odroid-M1, Odroid-C2 and Odroid-C4 running with Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS/20.04.4 LTS.
All work fine.


Just curious for benchmarks on Odroids.
How many minutes?

On the other hand, we have been working on expanding the number of platforms and we have added in beta mode an application for ARM64 on linux (e.g. RaspberryPi), and ARM for Apple (for new Apple chips). We want to see how well they work. If all goes well, in the short term we could also consider expanding to Android.


My smartphone is ready!! :-)
