Bok's 100K thread

[Bok]

Wow, it took a long time in Enigma@Home but I finally made 100K... as long as they update their stats before midnight it should be reflected overnight..

Most 100K's (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=mmakers&subproj=100k)

I see Zombie67 is close to 50 though.. Wow!!!!!

Malaria Test and geneticlife@home are next up..

[outlnder]

He has one awesome record. I didn't even know there were that many BOINC projects.

Hi, Bok. Great stats.

[Bok]

I'm getting close on Malaria Test Project. Of course zombie67 wrapped that one up some time ago.... Been a bit of a slog for me, have 18000 in pending state still.

His overall pag (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=userbycpid&cpid=0a7b8378436fdcaef549d87e35f26480)e is pretty cool. Quite a spread of points, it shows up with his Country Rank overall as only 48..

/aside... I must write the page displaying overall scores within country and link it here...

[Bok]

yay.

World Community Grid - 100K done!
Cels at Home - 100K done!

SHA-1 is next...

[LAURENU2]

yay.

I think we are having some fun :thumbs: aren't we :jester:

[zombie67]

In 2 months, I am now up to 56! Yea me! :rock:

[Bok]

Do you have any more you can do?

I still have quite a few to push up there.. Almeregrid I guess you are looking at.. I tried the test version, can't get my password for the main one :( Disk was thrashing like crazy though, so I suspended it :)

Bok


Yeah, only Almeregrid left to go, that still has work. And yes, those tasks take about 5 minutes to run, but that is CPU time. Wall clock time is many times longer...probably due to the disk thrashing.

So now I am working on making more 250k, 500k, and 1Mk.

[Bok]

31!!! (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=mmakers&subproj=100k)

SHA-1 - 100K Done!

Working on Seti (thought I might as well get it over with :) ), though I have a crapload of SIMAP work too, might push me to 50K in that..

Couple of other projects in testing too...

[Bok]

WEP-M2 - 100K done!
Seti and PS3/GPU grid within 24hours I think..Working on MindModelling (very slow going.. :( ) with a bit of Climate Prediction on the side...

[alpha]

This doesn't seem to be taking you long at all Bok. Impressive!

What's next when you're done? 250k? Or are you gonna hit one project hard?

[Bok]

I'm not thinking that far ahead :)

But likely I'll push some up to 250K..

[Bok]

Seti - 100K - done
PS3Grid - 100K done

34 projects (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=mmakers&subproj=100k) with 100K now.. :D

[IronBits]

Nice! I think you are having too much fun. :)

Don't slow down to tie your shoe laces though or there might be some :train: ... :roadkill: ... :D

[zombie67]

:cheers: Zombie, your a hard man to catch :cheers:

Thanks! I have the good luck of getting 100k in some projects that are no longer available. Plus I started this goal (100k in every project) a couple years ago. So I've had a long time to work on it.


Don't slow down to tie your shoe laces though or there might be some :train: ... :roadkill: ... :D

Don't I know it!! You're impossible to shake! Like a pit bull. I was kinda hoping you'd be scared off DistrRTgen. ;) No such luck! :D

[Bok]

I wonder how many people are actively going after 100K's as one of their primary goals ??

That would be an interesting stat.. I think I'm the only one on Free-DC. PoorBoy definitely is. zombie67 and I think KevinT does for Seti-USA. Outlnder and a few of the Ars people are going for it too.. I've seen it mentioned elsewhere by a few others on.

Maybe I could enhance it somewhat.

Looks like I might get my SIMAP 100k in the current run of wu's. Done 27K in less than 2 days and I think I've still got quite a lot cached (not at home to check :) )

My gpugrid scores are looking good... should be 250K in a few days, 2 weeks to 500K !

Bok

[IronBits]

Great effort! :) Keep up the good work folks.

Hi BOK, ever since BOINC started like Zombie67 I've always tried to get 100,000 Credits @ a Project, I still have 5-7 Projects that I can easily put over that mark when & if I can get the work so I'm in the Hunt yet.

Any thing over that I'm not worried about and I'll let the guys with the really Huge Farms go after those marks. My Farm is to small, it's efficient and fast but not enough Box's to really compete for the Higher Marks.

[zombie67]

I still have 5-7 Projects that I can easily put over that mark when & if I can get the work so I'm in the Hunt yet.


Yeah, that's the trick. When there is no work, you can't work on the goal, like with VP or BRaTS.

[Bok]

SIMAP - 100K - Done
MindModelling@Home 100K - Done

That'll make 36 for me when it updates tonight... :)

Get's harder now.. still working on uFluids which is slow going as it's windows only and it's poor when running more than 2 instances on a quad so I'm limited to 6 dualcores only..

ClimatePrediction is ongoing in the background and I've been running Ibercivis somewhat.. lots of errors on that one.

Oh and I hit 250K on GPUGrid pretty quickly, should get to 500K before Xmas. I need to rename that one in the stats..

I added a Most 10k section this week. Nice score on that one AMDave :)

Bok

[zombie67]

Nice!

[zombie67]

I see you're working on RALPH. That's a tough one, work is not available that much, so you have to really jam on it when you get the chance.

[Bok]

yup. I was surprised today with a bunch of work downloaded. Still got quite a bit in the caches.

So, what would you say was the Worst one to get? I'd have to say MindModelling pissed me off the most. Those tiny little wu's play havoc with BoincView....! Though I'll be happy to finally get ufluids done.. and I suppose I'll get back to Sztaki at some point even though I lost close to 60K in pending there recently :(

For RALPH (and rosetta), you can set the run time of the WUs up to 24 hours. So set that to the max, that way you will get the most value for each scarce WU. However, the first time you do this, be prepared for it downloading WAY more than you can return in time. BOINC will need to learn the new run times.

The most aggravating is probably SZTAKI, I guess. Due to the long run times, and the long times to get wingmen to report. uFluids is frustrating too, because the more tasks you run at once, the slower they go, exponentially. So if you have a quad, or way worse, an 8-way, you are screwed. You have to use a small resource with another project(s).

AlmereGrid also gives CRAP credits, as does FreeHAL. So they take FOREVER.

[LAURENU2]

Ha Bok your 100K page does Not like Me. Some times I think technology Hates Me :cry:

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

Hmm okay I'm gonna throw that page at Internet Explorer on here.. Even if I do hate to use.. Hmm Works fine on IE 6.
What doesn't it like?

[Bok]

works ok in IE7 too as well as Safari and Chrome?

What kind of problem do you get Lauren ?

I'm not listed AT All :cry:and I am pretty sure I made over a 100 K in a few projects :rock:

[Bok]

ah, take a look at the top line...

Most 100K Scores(>7 for inclusion)

I think you have more work to do yet :)

I bet you can make it onto the list by end of the year....!!!

[LAURENU2]

look at my sig Do I not have 9 Running and 2 archived over 100K
Or am I missing some thing here As always:blush:

PS I am listed 250 500 1 m but not 100K or below

[Bok]

It's only for BOINC projects.... :)

has to be where projects are <comparable> in points which BOINC at least tries to do..and for the main part does so across projects.

[LAURENU2]

:bang: I see I am missing :umm: BUT I have a excuse :rock:No where does it is say that it is just BOINC

[Bok]

ok, I'll give you that :)

But now you need to get to work :p

:allhail:

[Kevint]

BOK,

On your top lists, is it possible to make the number of projects a link.

For expample.

When I check the top users with the most #1's - the number of #1 spots to the right of the page. Can this be a link to what those projects are?

When I check mine it shows 5 #1 positions. How difficult would it be so I can click on the "5" to show what those projects that I hold #1 position in?

Awesome job on the web site.. I hardly use any other site anymore!

[Bok]

Thanks,

hmm, perhaps..

so in your example what would you expect to see on a linked page?

Perhaps (and I'm thinking off the top of my head :) ) just a clone of your CPID page (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=userbycpid&cpid=c588950ba551b22cf0d96adbf6dcd720) limited by those projects where you have #1 ?

That's doable..I'd just have to add a new parameter.

So, if you mostly just use the stats :p What is missing... we always want feedback :)

Bok :cheers:

p.s. your CPID page is one I look at often... :)

[zombie67]

Here's a suggestion. You have an awesome set of stats, with the "most X". How about a signature graphic based on that?

Category..........Number.....Rank
Most 100,000....3..............4th
Most 250,000....1..............37th
etc...

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

That should be possible can't see why not probably be able to base it on our current tag..

[Bok]

yes. We were talking about new tags on friday. I want to create a set to allow for different views / data.

This is a good idea, I hadn't thought about those..Easy enough.

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

Goes :looney: at the thought, more coding and here was me thinking I could have the week off :lmao:

[LAURENU2]

ah, take a look at the top line...

Most 100K Scores(>7 for inclusion)

I think you have more work to do yet :)

I bet you can make it onto the list by end of the year....!!!
You have it posted ( Most 100k Scores (>7 for inclusion) )

I think you need to change it from 7 to 8 now

[Bok]

You think I should limit it to only those with more than 8 100k's rather than 7 ??

I see you only need one more (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=userbycpid&cpid=c4b4c71414f8e0247cd79febe1b85a39) as it stands to be included :)

You are ahead of me on the 500K list (http://stats5.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=mmakers&subproj=500k&team=Free-DC)

:notworthy:

[LAURENU2]

No you misunderstand the 100 K list Now only go's to 8's
So you need 8 100K's to be listed there No 7 as you have it posted
Most 100K Scores(>7 for inclusion) Needs to be > Most 100K Scores(>8 for inclusion)
Or provide more Pages to allow the 7's holders to be listed Or Not:D

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

Well think about it is says "> 7 for inclusion"...
Well 8 is 1 more than 7 so it's right if we did that
"Most 100k Scores (>7 for inclusion)" would need to read
"Most 100k Scores (>=8 for inclusion)"
Now what looks better, Mr Picky!:Pokes::rotfl:

*bounces off the walls* I don't know what you mean.

[Bok]

yay, this (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=user&proj=uah&name=36) has taken sooooo long!!

[outlnder]

I don't know how you did that. I have tried to get ufluids to run, but I get a couple of completed WUs then it freezes and screws up my machine.

That is one big ass milestone, Bok. Excellent job!!

[Bok]

:cheers:

It's basically bad when you have more than 2 instances running on a machine, so a quadcore is really hardwork (therefore you are going to struggle!!!)..You have to end up downloading a bunch of units, suspend all but one and let it run through, then unsuspend each at a time..PIA. And with it being windows only, I ended up doing most of the work on a couple of dualcores I have that are XP..

Glad it's done though.. Now if only Ralph@Home will give out enough work to get up there :)

Bok

[alpha]

Couldn't you have just adjusted the BOINC preferences on each machine running it to only use one core? It's a per-machine preference, so you don't have to change your general settings for it to take effect.

Oh, and congrats. :)

[Bok]

but it's not a per-project preference.. so the other cores would have been idle, unless I used them up otherwise.

I didn't do it too much anyway, as I said I just used the dualcores instead. Took longer, but got there in the end :)

Bok

[Bok]

Today is a good day so far.. :)

New work in Virtual Prairie, Superlink@technion and now Open Rendering, plus lots of Ralph work in cache :)

Yay!! :banana::banana::banana::banana:

[zombie67]

yay, this (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=user&proj=uah&name=36) has taken sooooo long!!

uFluids is a hard one! The more cores it runs on at once, the slower it goes, squared. So the key is to run it on only dual core machines. Or if you have to run it on a quad or ocho, you have to make sure your resource share is very small...

Edit: D'oh! Didn't see that there was a whole next page of comments when I posted. I see my brilliant insight was not quite so unique.... :)

[Liuqyn]

Speaking of Superlink@technion and ufluids, why aren't they listed alphabetically on my stats page, instead they are both at the bottom.


ps. nice job btw.

[Bok]

You mean on usermain rather than on the userbycpid.php (where is is ordered by score...)

It's because they begin with a lower case letter. I've altered this. It should update soon..

Bok

[Liuqyn]

ya, thats what I figured, thanks

[zombie67]

You probably already know this but....

Almost all of the "Most ..." stats haven't worked for at least a day now.

[Bok]

I know I broke them yesterday.. (I added a new column to the table to allow me to order the list by milestone size... for the new signature I have working ... :p )

But I fixed them, they all seem to work for me now ?

Please tell me you are not using the one on stats4.... :thumbs:

the real one (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=mmakers&subproj=100k)

is working fine.. I've just ran through all of them and they are all working for me..

stats4 is broken and will not be fixed. It's old code and will be switched off this week perhaps.

Bok

[BlackMountainCow]

Guilty as charged! :train:

[zombie67]

I see what Bok's working on! :thumbs:

[Bok]

:)

Yeah, got a crapload of VTU work today.. Unexpected.... :) Slowed down my few other projects heading to 100K but they'll get there. I'll take the work right now !!

Very pleasantly surprised by some Brats@Home work too...

With the server upgrade, he added the "Run test applications", so be sure to turn that on.


Very pleasantly surprised by some Brats@Home work too...

No kidding! I was able to get 54 tasks over the past two days! :banana:

[zombie67]

Ah! And you are attacking a certain beta project the same way I am. Throw a GPU at it! :thumbs:

[gopher_yarrowzoo]

Zombie he probably is you know...
Goes to see if he can't do some work on via his GPU, probably not..

[Bok]

Ah! And you are attacking a certain beta project the same way I am. Throw a GPU at it! :thumbs:

Yes, seems more well behaved now than it did a month ago.

Pity there is no linux CUDA app as my other 3 9800GT's are all on linux boxen..

:cheers: for tip on test apps for VTU !!

[Bok]

ummm, Superlink work too.... :)

[KAMCOBILL]

I noticed the Archived Projects aren't in the 10, 25,50, 100k and etc. Is that suppose to happen?

[Bok]

no it's not.

[KAMCOBILL]

no it's not.

OK Thanks Bok. My Predictor@Home isn't showing up in in Boinc Stats. Can you run them one more time to see if it'll be picked up?

[Bok]

OK Thanks Bok. My Predictor@Home isn't showing up in in Boinc Stats. Can you run them one more time to see if it'll be picked up?

Actally, first I may have misunderstood your previous question. The 10K, 100K etc is ONLY for boinc projects but will include all boinc projects including archived.

As for Predictor, it looks like you have a different cross-project ID (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=userbycpid&cpid=c4ed12f0f45fc00e2e7f605df1fbe73f) in Predictor. Did you use a different email address perhaps?

Of course with no way to change it now that Predictor is dead, I'd be happy to fix it for you within my database.

Let me know if that's what you want...

Bok

p.s.I found it by doing a search (http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=search&proj=&team=&name=KAMCOBILL&exact=N&cross=Y) :)

[KAMCOBILL]

OK. That'll work.

It was one of the projects that I had see-sawing with. I fixed it, now and that's why I was wondering if an update would fix it in this database. It' the right CPID on the Predictor site now (Cross-project ID: b65b36154e3a49f636a3148d4e0b3c83). I attached again after BOINCManager detached me. Now it's ok.

Changing it in database will work if it's ok with you. no hurry, just whem you have extra time :D

Thanks

Bill

[Bok]

Done.

Please note that if Predictor ever comes back and updates their xml it will overwrite any changes...Doesn't look likely though!

Bok

[KAMCOBILL]

Thanks Bok. It's in there now.

It doesn't seem to be inactive. Before it wasn't showing the updates when computers were connecting. Now, it's updating them and I was able to change my CPID to the correct one, there a couple of days ago.

[Bok]

There hasn't been any new xml stats for a long time though, so the sites won't be updating anything..

[Bok]

50 x 50k :)

:woot:

[Liuqyn]

hey now, this is the 100k thread. please take your 50k announcement elsewhere.. :whip:

[Bok]

ok, back on topic :p ....I would have had my 48th 100K if the Ralph servers hadn't gone down yesterday.. :(

[Liuqyn]

hehe, I didn't even know Ralph had work again.

[outlnder]

BOK, Congrats on passing me in Boinc Overall standings. !!

[Bok]

Dang,

did I do it again. I feel like a yoyo :p

Or is that the project I'm working on... :p

Bok :thumbs: :cheers:
