This batch will use lots of scratch space.

I am set up to run four work units at a time. How much will that need? I can change it as necessary; it is "only" a 120 GB SSD, with maybe 80 GB free at the moment.

I think the largest one took 50GB of scratch space. But they should scale linearly (they are not all that big) so it's practically up to chance if you will be able to run them all in parallel depending on if you get some of the smaller ones or the larger ones.

OK, the 250 GB SSDs are a good buy at the moment in the U.S.

I submitted some WUs but I am warning you :P This batch will use lots of scratch space.

Most errors I get from these work units have this

Two have completed on my Linux box.

9 1/2 hours? that's longer than most Long Run GPUs tasks ;)

Again,1526.20 credits.

Starting to see some of the longer run work units

Run time - CPU time - Credit
3,812.94 - 11,088.78 - 2,307.16
4,054.73 - 11,758.62 - 2,637.67

Longer runs don't seem to be affected by the DISK_LIMIT_EXCEEDED error which happens in some shorter runs.My later long run gave me 1151 credits.

I am submitting now some more of the faster QMML50_3 workunits. These should be quite quick and have a higher priority than the SELE6 so you might be getting these for a while now.

Run time 3,241.13
CPU time 4,048.97
Validate state Valid
Credit 157.51

Hm, a marked drop in the credit, compared to what Zalster got (see a few postings above):

Yes, but his CPU time is much higher, probably because of the core number he has. I have only two.

Couple of things I've noticed. The computer that are getting the higher time/credit only has 12 threads. My 10core/20thread is still getting the shorter, quicker work units. Not sure why.

Also, most of the long run are resends that erred out on other computers. Maybe it was the disk space as the issue, don't know. Just thought I would point that out as well.

My Linux HP laptop cannot get GPUGRID tasks because it has only 24.90 GB available and the server says it needs 32. So I am running SETI@home on it, which does not require that much space.

I have no clue how the BOINC scheduler works but if it works as I hope it works you should be getting only the QMML50 workunits for a while now. Maybe some SELE6 were still scheduled from before.

Yes the new QMML50s are flowing. Running between 2-4 minutes currently. Will keep an eye on them.

Help! I have no working coming in and it has been a number of days, I see there is plenty of work on the server??? Please advise soonest, thanks Gary

There is GPU work available. And you will need an Nvidia GPU.

There has not been CPU work for a long time.
