V10/11 of modified SETI MB CUDA + opt AP package for full multi-GPU+CPU use

[Claggy]

There's different versions of V10b in different posts on Page 10.

Off subject a bit..............

I remember there existed a NON TEAM build somewhere but can't find it.  Can anyone help me out?

Looking for NON TEAM cuda app

The same CUDA app can be used w/o its team CPU counterpart. But CPU teamed app can not be used separately.

Thanks for that, I just switched over from your V7a VLAR_fix app to V10a (without the team counterpart),
(I wanted to see the wall time, but didn't want to ask if you'd update the v7a app.)
First wu completed satis, 972.4secs.

Lurker checking in, x64 V10b apps working well for me and doing an incredible amount of work the past few days.

Raistmer, it took me 6 years to break 1 million work units but my second million will be completed in early July at this rate.

Sir, you clearly rock in my book.

It's not V10 output. Update to V10b version.

ADDON: just for example, true V10 output:

i dont understand what you are asking me to do?? where is version 10b?

First page of this thread - V10a.
You can stop on it or look further to find V10b update.
Result I linked NOT V10 one at all. Not V10, nor V10a, nor V10b. So you should update to V10 pack.

Glad to hear that If project leaders will not change cobblestone credit value too much your next million could be even faster provided you will do upgrade to new hardware again .

im already using V10a

is V10b better for dual video cards??

sorry for the dumb questions im new to this tinkering with BOINC

What am I doing wrong, I have so much GPU and CPU power, and getting terribly low results.
Thank you

record in results you send claims you don't use V10a. So re-check your installation. And post screenshot of your windows task manager.

maybe im putting the stuff in the wrong folder where excactly in which folder is this V10b supposed to go?? i have been placing all of it into the boinc/seti/ application folder that has about 500 WU's in it.. if this is the wqrong folder let me know where to put it..

i downloaded and started using v10B last night as well
the cc_config.xml is placed in a diffrent folder but im pretty sure that is in the right spot..

This morning I'm almost out of WU. About 20 SETI WU and 10 AP. Is it me or is it the servers? Usually I have SETI in the hundreds waiting to start.

Also wanted to be sure I'm  not missing any speed enhancements. My work directory has:
ap_5.03r112_SSE3
ap_5.00r103_SSE3
AK_v8b_win_SSSE3x_GPU_CPU_team_V9

I believe Raistmer posted that going to V10 will not decrease processing time. Is there any other reason to change to V10?

Can I get rid of ap_5.00r103_SSE3?

Thanks
Art

[k6xt]

dunno how to take a screenshot of task manager how do u do that?

Yesterday I found that cut and paste here will not work with screen shot. Here's what worked for me:

Open Task Manager. Click twice on the CPU column, so that the SETI processors are showing at top.
Shrink the window so its showing only what you need.
Press ALT-PRTSC which takes a snapshot of the active (Task Manager - TM) window.
Open MSPaint or some other graphics editor.
Paste (CTRL-V) the TM screenshot into the editor.
Save the screenshot as a jpg file.
Go to this thread, Reply to Raistmer's post.
Press Additional Options.
Attach your jpg file.
Post.

The screenshot should show up when you Post your post. Worked for me.
Regards
Art

Can I get rid of ap_5.00r103_SSE3?

The work is still around - just got a v5.00 I needed for testing at only the second deliberate "work fetch" attempt I made looking for one.

Up to you whether you want to help clean it up, though.

[One sweetener - you're almost guaranteed instant credits when you finish one, because there are only resends available. And I'm about to make myself very popular with Firefly, who has been waiting since 12 January (and two deadline expiries) for a wingmate for his 749.30 pending credits]

THanks..I'll leave it there for now.

Speaking of pending credit. I've stayed away from worrying about it  - but. I have pending credit going back >1,000 completed wu. I'm using a small network with 4 PCs and my brother crunches with another 4 PCs all on one seti  account. Is this backlog normal?

Ok, lets look at your screenshot together now... How many AK_v8 do you see active? I see 5 active one and one waiting. And one CUDA_MB app active.
What does it mean for quad with 2 GPUs? It means that one GPU WILL be idle with such config.
And why this happened? My bet is because someone doesn't read first page completely and ignored any stuff regarding to number_of_GPUs file value.
Of course I can highlight that string too in first post, but don't think it will increase readability....
Citation
"
There will be number_of_GPUs file in SETI project directory. By default it contains number of 1.
If you have more GPUs just edit that file (enter number of GPUs installed in host instead of 1 ).
"

So? Am I right or I right? Edit that file.
