Well....... Boinc says

GPUGRID: Notice from BOINC
Your app_config.xml file refers to an unknown application 'acemdlong'. Known applications: 'acemdshort'

If that's the GTX 1070 machine you attached to the project for the first time on 24 Sep 2016, it won't have been assigned any long-queue tasks yet, until this testing is complete and the application is released on the long queue as well.

Your BOINC client only learns about acemdlong when is is assigned the first long task and downloads the application. The notice will go away at that point, and can be ignored in the meantime.

Okay, thanks...

The download speed and stalls are common problems on this project.

Yes they are and why they haven't been fixed is beyond ridiculous and reflects very badly on this project IMHO.

20nm tasks are in the Long queue, but not for Pascals.
The Pascals need the 64bit Windows 9.14 (cuda80) application which hasn't been uploaded into the Long queue yet. See the Apps page.

As the Pascal app is working as good as the Maxwells and previous generations (at processing the short queue tasks) I don't see any reason not to upload the cuda8.0 app into the long queue too.
While you could make overlap/parallel run arguments for analysing the performances of the Pascals against the Maxwells for scientific acceptance that shouldn't preclude the use of the Pascal app in the Long queue now. Qualifying the apps would be retrospective anyway.

Just had a short WU on my 1080 go for 9 hours and it was at 50% done. the GPU was idling. Other Pascal units had worked flawlessly. I aborted it and gave it a new one and it works again.

Same problem here. 76% for long time, GPU and CPU idle.

I still have this problem with maybe 10% of WU. Only restart helps - they are starting from 0% and crunching without problems. But I cant manually control it 24/7...

Have you tried suspending the stalled task and then resuming it? POEM used to do the same thing and suspending/resuming usually got the task moving again.

I had this same problem at least twice now. I tried suspending and resuming (task and/or project) and that didn't seem to work. Only a restart gets the task moving again.

Has anyone received a 20ns task on a Pascal GPU?
I'm asking because even though the 20ns tasks are in the short queue I'm getting only 1ns and 5ns tasks on my GTX 1080.

I'm crunching a 20ns short right now, and completed another one a couple of hours ago on my GTX1060.

That's one which was created and placed on the short queue five days ago, but the original volunteer never returned it: WU 11817373
But it'll help the scientists (and watchers) by showing them how the new application behaves on the longer tasks.

I did, it didn't help. Only restart does the trick.

It sounds like the card downclocked itself. It happens when you (or the factory) overclock your card too much.

Hello,

These apps work fine on my 1080 FE with a light OC (+135 Mhz).

But, I have a problem with the downloading :
The download freeze and I need to suspend the network activity and after put network activity always enabled to finish the download.

As the Pascal app is working as good as the Maxwells and previous generations (at processing the short queue tasks) I don't see any reason not to upload the cuda8.0 app into the long queue too.

While you could make overlap/parallel run arguments for analysing the performances of the Pascals against the Maxwells for scientific acceptance that shouldn't preclude the use of the Pascal app in the Long queue now. Qualifying the apps would be retrospective anyway.

I would like to add that the short queue will run out of work very soon if all the GTX 10x0 cards are receiving work only from this queue.

Hello all,

Can some of you please confirm that suspend/resume is working ok, please.

Matt

Task suspend/resume works
GPU suspend/resume works

Casp0X_crystal_ss_1ns take around 10 sec until it suspends but manager wait until it stopped. Might be checkpoint it would like to reach before stop do to it size.

Got only one error for unstable, do to it´s time i did other things with gpu when it was running so may not be task fault for that error.
All other went fine.

(Since release of beta 984 valid and 1 error)

I've kept an eye on it during the day, and task suspend/resume works. I had to do this at least four times.
My GTX1060 is always between 60 and 65° C and when the task is running it usually produces a 60-70% load on the GPU.

Ok, Pascal app is live on acemdlong now.
