I gave it a new chance (some weeks ago my system crashed every 20 min).
Looks good so far!


GPU usage is perfect when running 2 apps at a time
CPU usage needs some rework

Hi all Thanks for the

Message 79229 in response to message 79228

Hi all

Thanks for the testing, we really appreciate it!

Some progress report:

Today we identified the mysterious cause for the CUDA Windows App 1.24 crashing. We also found and hopefully fixed the problem with some OpenCL app errors (the one with "kernel setup: PS_R3" in the logs). If all goes well the fixed versions will be launched tomorrow, Tuesday, on Albert.

All in all we are still "GO" for an OpenCL launch in this or next week :-). Stay tuned.

Cheers
HB

So, problem solved, now it works again with v1.24. There are screens of my machines crunching Albert. Is cpu/gpu memory usage normal? Because they differs alot.

looks good, thanks!

I don't fully understand the difference in memory usage, but it could be caused by the different capabilities of the cards. Anyone else here with a 54xx ?

I have a 5450 but not yet the new app. SETI is right now on the GPU. There were some Ghosts wu lingering in my account so I allowed work to get them going. Sometime tomorrow maybe I will pickup new work here.

Hi!

Only OpenCL 1.1 capable cards are supported by this app, that's why the 4850 won't get jobs

I've ran a few tasks with 1.24 and it looks fine.

60%-70% GPU usage and 0.932CPU but it doesn't use more then 40% and has an avg cpu usage of 25%.

It works well with the 0.5 option and is able to run alongside Milkyway SETI POEM and Primegrid without a problem.
