From Ars Forum - TheJet


We're very close to closing out the 4th and 5th [of 9] stubspaces. 5 and 6 are believed to have the highest concentration of large stubs, whereas 7-9 are expected to contain a majority of much smaller stubs. In stubspace 6, we've got a little over 7 million that haven't been crunched at all yet, and approximately 13 million more stubs to verify. Stubspace 6 alone has almost 40 million stubs. In contrast, stubspaces 7, 8 & 9 contain only about 45 million stubs total [of which about 20 million have been crunched once, and ~1 million have been verified].

So... the smaller number of overall stubs, coupled with the believed smaller average size of each stub, should mean that we see a significant acceleration in the completion percentage over the next 3-4 months.

I still use http://the-mk.dyndns.org/dnet/details.php

If the later stubs are faster to process, then the projected date might sneak forward a bit, but it'd have to be a pretty impressive acceleration to bring the end date within six months. However, this is based on first-thing-in-the-morning calculations (with some ~huge~ approximations :D)

OK,
After further consultation, I have found that my initial calculations were off,
as I was counting those stubs which we have yet to process 3 times rather than 2.
My updated numbers look like this:

Date | Stub Chg | % Remain | End Date |
-----------|----------|----------|------------|
04/16/2008 | Baseline | 15.38 | |
04/17/2008 | 246,315 | 15.34 | 05/01/2009 |
04/18/2008 | 277,297 | 15.29 | 03/20/2009 |
04/19/2008 | 268,341 | 15.25 | 03/31/2009 |

Date | 3-Day Chg | 3-Day End Dt |
-----------|-----------|--------------|
04/19/2008 | 263,984 | 04/06/2009 |[/code]
For an explanation, I'm working off our direct reports from the keymasters to get an actual stubs completed number. From a formula standpoint, my '% Remain' number is based on:

%-Remain = SUM(Stubs Remain[stubspace]) / 2 * Total Stubs

Stubs Remain[stubspace] = ToBeDone[stubspace] + ToBeVerified[stubspace] = (Total[stubspace] - Done[stubspace]) + (Total[stubspace] - Verified[stubspace])

I can't work out where TheJet gets his Stub Change numbers from, but that was a hell of a spike those last two days. It wasn't reflected in the percentage change figures (courtesy of The-MK, linky in my post above). We must have hit a dense region of shorter stubs.

Oooh! If only there were some more raw data to be analysed!

Edit: I'm a twit, I misread the numbers :\ There was an appreciable change in the % completed

wirthi
04-23-2008, 02:14 AM
We made 0.15 during the last two days, i.e. 0.075 per day. This is below the 350-days-average of 0.092 (The-MK will have similar, but slightly higher value) but twice as much as the average of the 10 days defore with only 0.037 average.

I can't work out where TheJet gets his Stub Change numbers from, but that was a hell of a spike those last two days.

TheJet is dnet staff, so he probably has access to behind the scenes data. However, you can roughly (with 2 decimal places of % chg, accurately with more) calculate the stub change by the % change. I make some assumptions, but can get to the exact same figure by doing the following:

There are 304,857,742 OGRp2-25 stubs total which have to be crunched at least twice = 609,715,484 stubs overall (ish).
For 22nd April 2008, 699,753 stubs were crunched, and a 0.11% change was recorded.

(stub chg / total stubs) * 100 = % chgso, rearrange the equation to find stub chg:

stub chg = (% chg * total stubs) / 100
(0.114767136% * 609,715,484) / 100 = 699,753

OK? :)

paleseptember
04-23-2008, 05:35 AM
Yeah, I messed up my numbers above. The-MK's data does indicate an impressive last two days.

TJ is staff? Explains to detailed numbers!

I wasn't sure whether the % complete was directly related to the number of stubs. I guessed it would be, just wasn't certain.

Thanks everyone :thumbs:

Yes, TheJet is part of the staff (I think - Bovine).

I had a conversation with him a few weeks ago to see how feasible it was to get the data to produce allteams/allusers stats, but it didn't really get anywhere unfortunately.

It's not as if there is that much data involved..of course as it's open source, we are free to write our own php scripts to access the data :smoking:

now the official link: http://stats.distributed.net/project/ogr_status.php
as posted on .plan of TheJet (http://n0cgi.distributed.net/cgi/dnet-finger.cgi?user=thejet)

As you have probably noticed, we now have more detailed completion
statistics available for the OGR-25 project. By clicking on the
'%-complete' number on the main project status page, one can reach
a detailed 'stubspace completion' page. This new page outlines
the completion rates for each stubspace, as well as the overall
project stub completion information.

anybody against retiring http://the-mk.dyndns.org/dnet/ ? I'd like to take them offline in a few days...

What is with stubspace 7, a large percentage "complete" but only a small % verified. Do they do each one twice to verify?

wirthi
05-26-2008, 07:46 AM
No, simple maths: you have to double the total value (as you can see at stubspaces 1-5). Once for "Done", once for "Verification".

(23,079,944 + 3,867,854) / (38,106,790 * 2) = 0.3536 = 35.36%

the-mk
06-02-2008, 02:05 PM
there is someone who wants to crunch OGR-26 already :D

I think it'll be a lot longer, but the CPUs in future also get faster and multi-cored...

do we have comparison from OGR-24 to OGR25? I'm not sure, but OGR-24 ended about 2004-10-31 and they were working 1,572 days (if you can trust that page http://stats.distributed.net/projects.php?project_id=24). OGR-25 is running nearly 8 years now (ok, we double-check all the stubspaces) and have about 87%

I'm not that genius, but I think it'll run 12 to 16 years (just a guess :D )

I think the calculations of those stats need some time. Since they say that "Data shown reflects all blocks received as of 03-Jun-2008 at 23:59 UTC" I think they'll start calculations short after midnight at their time (UTC). At least two hours later, the stats should be uptodate, maybe it doesn't take that long...

The regular stats seem to take around thirty minutes, the detailed ogr_status page seems to be around 2 to 3 hours.

We're not defeated yet! Even if Free-DC stops completely, linux-de.org would struggle to take us inside of 60 days. If we continue doing what we can, we should be able to hold them back for quite a while longer!

The project should wrap up subspace 6 within a week, looking at the history (http://stats.distributed.net/project/ogr_status.php), and then we're powering into the end-game. Should be a fun finish :)

Many, many times it has been said that the project will speed up near the end. All estimates of a project end date are vastly overestimated, even the official ones.

As paleseptember said, wait until we start hitting stubspaces 8 and 9 for a more accurate date (but even then, it will still be an overestimate).

It'll be interesting to see whether yesterday's rate-tripling or an anomaly. Stub completions/day has been waaaay down as we've chugged through subspace 6.

Looking at the Weekly Node Rate Graph (http://stats.distributed.net/keyrate.php?project_id=25), the rate was up by around 10%, so it can't have just been a few teams dumping.

We'll see :)

My work computer has finally been fixed, new hdd seems to have helped. It's been randomly restarting itself for the last week (generally when I've not been using it :P I think it wanted some attention :rotfl:) so my meagre contribution will be double-meagre again :thumbs:

Alrighty, some mathematics :D

Total stubs (including verification): 609715484
Total stubs processed so far: 550150635
Remaining stubs: 59564849

Using the rates for 04-Aug, of which only 10% was subspace 6 (majority was subspace 7), 747560 stubs processed.

That gives an expected finish time of 79 days. Which I agree is pretty flimsy as we've no idea what the final two subspaces are like. However, 80% of the remaining stubs (47507075 of 59564849) are subspace 7, so I'll extrapolate from that.

MOOH! (linux-de-org's primary producer) is steady at 4.4 million Gnodes daily. Free-DC has a lead of 193 million Gnodes. Assuming 79 days (flimsy) and assuming MOOH! remains the only big hitter for linux-de.org, Free-DC will need an output of 1.9 million Gnodes a day.

Sod. That's quite a bit more than our recent output. My back of the envelope estimations were less awful. Ah well, this will teach me for trying to extrapolate some better estimates...

What I meant was that my fifteen second approximation was a lot more optimistic than what happened when I used, you know, numbers and algebra.

On topic, even if subspaces 8 and 9 prove longer than average, we're still looking at an end-date of 2008. Which is good, cos I want to get the best ranking I can in OGR, then move onto other maths-projects. I have SOB and GIMPS numbers that are cryin' out for some lovin'. :lmao::rotfl::lmao:

If you want to help get me to about 1.5%, see if you can help me with the question I'm going to ask in the hardware forum, after I finish perusing everything. It involves powering a motherboard that doesn't have a case. I'm hoping that someone who's all thumbs, but quick to learn, is capable of doing it.

Dunno if this calls for a celebration. I like consider the possibility that adding myself to the project was what took the 30-day prediction into 2008. (Yes, I'm very vain. I actually try to train myself to act humble, though I'm most definitely NOT humble)

almost 3M stubs crunched yesterday...and I don't see any evidence of :dump:

That's put the end date based on a 1 day ave to be Aug 30th!!!

I'd guess there will be some bigger stubs to be in the middle of stubspace7 but who knows at this pace..

That's enormous! We are absolutely flying through subspace 7. :bigtrain::bigtrain:

And as we've done about 28million of the 38million stubs in space 7 first pass (and verified a further 8million), there will have to be a huge variation in stub size in the last quarter of the space. *shrug* It's possible, but I think we're flying down the home straight :banana:

My Q6700 work computer just knocked off 100 stubs in 30 minutes (around 2-3GNodes per stub, smallest was .32, largest 5.98). If this isn't just patch of very small stubs.... Well!

Update: Doesn't appear to be anomolous. Second batch of 100 stubs are flying through, again averaging 2-3Gnodes each.

We did about 50-50 space 7 and 8, looks like space 8 stubs are about huge if the last two days are indicators.

paleseptember
09-23-2008, 04:33 AM
I've been saying all along that stubspace 8 is going to make the ogr end-date predictions wildly inaccurate. :jabber::jabber::jabber:

Let's assume that we continue at today's ratio of stubspace 7/8 (for those who watch these things, today has been the first day in a long time where the emphasis has been 8 rather than 7, hence the sudden apparent drop). Another 20 days(ish) at today's proportions will have cleaned up stubspaces 7 and nearly all of 8.

LAURENU2 asked for a prediction for end-date. Going on my calculations above, 20 days to clean out space 7 and nearly 8, another day to tidy 8 completely, a day for space 9. That makes 22 days for today, so......

13th October 2008.

I remember vaguely somewhere in one of these threads that seem to be all meshed together in my mind that I said 02 October 2008 (which is my birthday). (Evidence here (http://www.free-dc.org/forum/showpost.php?p=121520&postcount=1251)) Ooh, looking at that post, was I ever out on the predicted Free-DC end-date total!:blush:

Oh, (and a postscript), I forgot to say the most important bit! That for the past eight-and-a-bit years, Free-DC has given it's all, we've pushed and given it a helluva stick-to-it effort, and we're going to finish in the top five. Even if we get pipped at the post, that's a flipping phenomenal effort! :cheers: all round!

:: 30-Sep-2008 16:22 GMT (Tuesday) ::

Dear friends,

As you know, we are drawing to the conclusion of the OGR-25p2 project,
with less than 1% remaining and we estimate project completion
sometime within the next month. You can view the latest OGR-25p2
project percentages here:
http://stats.distributed.net/project/ogr_status.php

We have noted that a significant amount of work is not being counted,
due to being held out of the system for a long time and completed by
other users before it is returned. In some cases, it is returned even
after stubspaces have been closed. At the current stage of the
project, a workunit which isn't returned within two weeks of being
issued will have a high chance of being recycled and processed by
somebody else. This duplicated workunit will still be credited in
personal stats, but it won't have any value to the project.

One of the stubspaces currently open will take only two days of
concerted effort to close off. If we are to calculate at full
effectiveness, it is vital that work is completed and returned in a
timely fashion.

If your computer has a connection to our key servers or a local proxy
server, we recommend that you keep your client set to the default
buffer settings to avoid buffering an excessive amount of workunits.

Additionally, if your client is configured to participate in only
OGR-P2, we encourage you to consider enabling your clients to
participate in both OGR-P2 and RC5-72. Over the next few weeks, we
anticipate there being occasional periods of time when there will not
be any OGR-P2 workunits available, due to the recycle delays and
timeout periods. By enabling your clients to also process RC5-72, you
will ensure that your computers will not go completely idle during
these periods.

Finally, we would like to mention that we are currently finalizing a
next-generation OGR project that will further the exploration into
even higher-order Optimal Golomb Rulers. Stay tuned for more details
later.

We would like to thank you for your continued support and your ongoing
efforts to help us.

Moo! ]:8)

True enough, but we should weigh up the current cache size versus average stub size for stubspace 9 when we can. Otherwise we might end up crunching stubs which are older than 2 weeks and getting no credit.

Read that yote from the last distributed.net statement:

This duplicated workunit will still be credited in
personal stats, but it won't have any value to the project
That's still bad. We do work that does not contribute towards the completion rate => an advantage for linux-de.org (and yoyo, but I guess they've missed their chance to overtake us)

Gang,
I know I've been a bit :stretcher: for the past several months with a good day here and there, only getting permission to drive again this past week (rules of the surgery). A friend did help take over my machines (running them for FDC) AND is working on my new machine (which is looking *SWEET*) since I'm not at my best....BUT, what is going on with OGR?

One minute there is NO work and the next you find a queue full of OGR work to run. Also would like to ask about RC5? Granted it seems a rather 'limited' task when WUs complete in as little as a minute or two on a Northwood P4, but it does have work to hand out and my friend did manage to push up several hundred 'packets' (?) of work, and it downloaded some 400 MORE for him to run. I have heard that RC5 is one of the worst projects out there.... but even at its worst, my friend is topping out on a single P4 as #1 producer for ALL FDC.... that's just NOT right!... would someone please explain/share where we are going to attack? It seems that Linux.de and the Europeans have simply enabled the RC5 side to pick up that work while waiting for OGR packets to expire and be handed out to new users for completion. Have we considered that??????? I've heard '9 days remaining' now for a few WEEKS. May I respectfully ask WTF ??? FDC does not get :train: for no good reason.

The XML isn't updating on OGR or RC5 (it appears)... Is this FDC's or D.net's issue? The stats on the Dnet site ARE updating.

I did try to bring up Eon and the classic (packet here and there with enough Z's for a full night sleep) overloaded server. Perhaps it's like my toilet..... 'Clogged' again ??? someone care to ask Lijun to grab the plunger and check it out?

Thanks to all,
Hope to have some even better news for you all soon.

PS: just logged in and looked, it appears my machines do know the proxy and all very nicely while running a nearly full DSL load of 2MB/sec down and 250KB/sec up (Lauren beware as we are pushing toward VDSL here... you may wish to ask about the 25 Mb/sec service).

Lauren & team,
Somehow, forwhich I am grateful, I just checked and one machine is maintaining a full OGR queue. The other is attempting to grab packets, but obviously is grabbing at the wrong time and down to 38 packets.

So far so good.... these are longer running OGR packets (more points) and running on the fastest machines K8/K9 AMDs. I believe the 15 minute recheck interval and high threshold settings (tell me if wrong) will push it to get as much work as possible. If this denies work unless there are more than the desired amount, please send me a PM with an an adjustment to the [OGR-P2] section ASAP.... (Anyone with the info please send).

Each core is pushing some 50 Mnodes/sec and earning us some 200-300 points per. I currently have 9 cores up and running on it, but the 9th core is the p4 which is somehow stuck in RC5 mode claiming it cannot get OGR packets. All ini files are identical, only difference is the p4 is win/2k and the others are FC8/64bit.

If there are tricks, (like deleting RC5 input buffers, or something wild for the INI, etc) or other suggestions, please let me know. I have already disabled all services (including the Xserver) that are not essential to operation.

Please forgive my lapse of memory on how to make this thing 'spin', I will explain in pvt on a need to know basis.

With GREAT thanks,
C.

The status page (http://stats.distributed.net/project/ogr_status.php) is reporting the project has less than 1,000 stubs to go. I'm guessing that everyone is just processing the same few remaining stubs at the moment :]

My three connected computers are still happily drawing from the free-dc proxy, I've finished my last offline buffer file. *shrug* This is my first 'project end', I don't know what to expect. :confused:

there's only 1 day left of work on the project, which leaves us 3-4 days short.

Linux.de transferred all their power over to RCS72 but I'm sure would try and grab whatever they could if it looked like we could get them.

Not wanting to be glass half empty on this BTW. :lmao:

Personally, I don't think they are even checking the stats.

Obviously they are not using a proxy and most likely the clients have just fallen back to picking up RC5 data.

It seems to be an exponential loop down to the last few stubs, I very much doubt it will be finished today or even tomorrow unless there is some manual intervention to clear the last few remaining stubs from the dnet people..

Of course, this is only my observation :)

Whether Free-DC sanctioned or not...... someone BETTER get an MP4/XVid stream out of it!!!!!!

This is my 2nd project end, but first where the project itself actually is finished. The first was a 'change to Boinc V4' and new management which caused everything to break..... so this is my first official project end as well.

And another milestone has been reached...... Post #200 for me.... That will allow me (at present rate) to catch up with Lauren in 200-300 years??? :)

Thanks for reminding me to get back ON-TOPIC. :)

I have about 5-6 days left.... just looked at the logs and had a 1000+ statspoints return from the P4.... should be a decent day. Yesterday was pretty good considering I had less than 1/2 of the day to get work done.


I think we WILL make it. Looking around the net gives me the feeling as hypothesized earlier regarding the other teams.

Now, after OGR ends, DO WE WANT to kick some butt on RC5? We have the horsepower and can do some serious catching up in what appears to be short order.

Perhaps another thread (please link it in here) or perhaps a mention here?

Tnx,
C

I don't think you'll garner too much interest in RC5 if posts I've seen in the past year or so are anything to go by. It's been running for years already and is still only 0.5% done...

Seems an almost impossible task today..

yep, maybe Bok will split this off into another thread...

However there's some issues with the RC5 thing.... like years and years and years (did I mention years?) to go. If I had some PS3's I'd be willing to do some RC5. But the standard quads and all are much better to be used elsewhere really.... just thoughts in passing. As for the prize, it has been re-instated by the distributed.net folks. But that's about all that would really be crunched for cause the answer is already known. So it rather makes it a little on the pointless side to just throw away all the electricity for something that is already known as the prize sure isn't worth all that effort.... :jabber:

Chuck

Guys,
Thank you for the info on RC5, that's what I get for being out of the loop for multiple months.... i agree the algorithm looks 'a bit' wasteful and the quads can indeed be used better elsewhere. Now, if we could stuff it into our iPod Gen5's, that would be a more proper cpu/task match, but how many people can handle linux on their Gen5 or newer.

May I ask if / where there's a poll/thread about our decision on what to do next? I have some ideas, but best discussed in pvt first.

Thanks again,
C.

Chuck: There are some preliminary ideas being thrown around in here: http://www.free-dc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=16302

The general feeling I'm getting is that people are wanting to go back to some of their pet projects, try a few new things out (I'm eyeing off NPLB and Bok's sexy new stats page (http://www.free-dc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=16531) :P) and generally see what's out there. The proliferation of a thousand and one BOINC projects is making things complicated.

Newbie question, for which I apologize.

When does OGR update their XML output... our stats page is running rather slow tonight (aka, not updated yet)...


YES, I did flush the browser cache... I see Oct-21 showing in the stats but '0' data.... their web site has my output for the day, so did they get swamped or something?

10-21-2008, 10:50 PM
distributed.net team and individual stats update at 0030GMT. The OGR status page updates at 0230GMT.

The Free-DC and official stats don't seem to talk so well after dnets server explosion of a few months ago. *shrug*

Just a note about RC5 to bear in mind. It could finish today or tomorrow, we don't have to exhaust the keyspace like we did with OGR. This isn't a race to 100% - it's a race to find the one special key. That's the nature of the project.

That said, I'm not a fan of the project but I might run it again some time to improve my personal standing.

Thought I just posted this.... sorry if I posted elsewhere by accident.


The proxy is accepting OGR results. And their web site, which I also posted *somewhere* here shows the status as active, last updated on the 13th. I would think the completion status would have been posted immediately given the UTC time offset in our favor and D.net's location.


PLEASE push to get all your results in before 0:00 UTC this eve to be certain of credit.... We'll watch for a project status change on their web site at that time as well.

PS: Please note the following snippet from my proxy connection:

[Oct 25 16:28:31 UTC] OGR-P2: Sent 1 packet (300.75 stats units) to server.
[Oct 25 16:28:31 UTC] Connection closed.

Simply, whether the stubs are 2nd pass or simply 'time expired-recycled',


I DON'T BELIEVE WE SHOULD STOP UNTIL THE D.NET FAT LADY SINGS


But, one would think the date, time and stats point unit implies we are over the 'small point packets' part of the 'end-game'.... now for whatever is left floating around.


AND I have recycled all proxy configs in the ini file to hit all proxies.... Yes, I am running low, but it is still running.

It's the cpus... Some are and staying full, I may have mispoken and will see what happens with this next packets being sent in ( I am sending 200-300 stats point packets).... unless (Please do correct me if I am wrong having arrived late to the party) that 24/core is the standard (?) . I may simply have miscalulcated what defines 'low'... and if so, I thank you for the correction as it would indicate my queues are 'box-specific' full.
