Posted 22 Jan 2016 by Conan Post: I noticed you released a small batch of tasks for "Beta Testing Version of D.E.N.I.S Application" Going on these posts, I take it that I have to remove my app_info.xml file or does it just have to be modified so I can receive the current Beta work? If all it needs is to be modified then what are the correct file names and application name? Thanks Conan |

Posted 12 Nov 2015 by Conan Post: On one machine, from time to time (17 WUs in 5 days), I'm getting this : G'Day toTOW, I don't really know what might be at issue but I did notice that the computer you are having the most issues with (it has had 94 errors) is ID: 48314, an i7 with 8 CPUs and 4GB RAM. Could the amount of RAM be the issue as it has the least memory (your i3 has 12GB and other i7's have up to 16Gb), if the computer runs out of memory and sits there waiting till it can get some it could be generating the long finish files? Just a thought. Conan |

Posted 14 Sep 2015 by Conan Post: It is GD_jcarro_20150903001429000000_CRLP_Exp_Design_1_conf_4619_2 It eventually reported fine after 11 Hours, but gave very poor credit (10 cr/h) probably due to the other returned result only recording 1,655 seconds run time. Mine took a Run Time 40,465.05 CPU Time 39,788.40 Credit 115.46 No idea why it has taken so long to run, glad it was a successful result but for the effort at least double points would of been nice.

Posted 14 Sep 2015 by Conan Post: I have a Dennis work unit that has been running for over 9 Hours so far, still using a full core. Are there a few really long running work units in the current batch? The longest I have had recently has been 9,500 seconds (2.64 hours). The work unit is running on a Windows XP 32 bit AMD Phenom 955 computer. Thanks Conan |

New v1.04 DENIS Application
(Message 267)
Posted 4 Jun 2015 by Conan Post: Now you have the new application out will there be a correction for all the 64 Bit work units that passed through the 32 Bit computers and gave such low run times when they should not have run at all? Were these work units faulty? Or did you get valid results from them? If they were faulty are they going to be reissued to be re-run and re-validated? And what happens to all credit that has been granted (there is a lot of it, for example one 2 core host has over 1,900,000 points) for these hosts that ran the wrong software version and gave what appeared to be incorrect results? I suppose we will have to wait to see if the new software version has actually fixed the issue. Conan |

Posted 3 Jun 2015 by Conan Post: It looks like there is another very fast 2 core host Host 2617 Yes, interesting, as they are not 64 Bit but 32 Bit so they should be failing the work units not processing them. Conan |

Posted 2 Jun 2015 by Conan Post: It looks like there is another very fast 2 core host Host 2617 All so far appear to be 2 core Intel CPU's (Pentium (R) and (D) and a Core 2 Duo), plus they are 32 Bit. Unknown if that is anything to go by. They don't get much when paired together, but they get through thousands of work units. Conan |

Posted 30 May 2015 by Conan Post: how this computer gets credits ? Well I hope you fix something up, as this 2 core Pentium D processor has now increased from 765,000 points to over 1,200,000 in one day. With the RAC going up from 60,000 to over 96,000 and processed results have moved from 48,000 to 79,000. A very impressive processor taking less than 3 seconds per work unit. It is also bringing down my credit due to the low claims this Host makes, so when I am paired with it I get lower credit. Conan |

Posted 29 May 2015 by Conan Post: how this computer gets credits ? I am just curious as to how the WUs get validated, runs for 2 seconds but gets full points, is the returned result correct? Or is it really a validator problem? This one host has over 40,000 valid results, 8,000 pending, a RAC of over 60,000 and only a few errors. That one host makes my 4 look very poorly, even if I am not running just DENIS but a mix of projects. Conan |
