Collatz is inflated.

by a factor of 1.527 - this is roughly what I'd expect, perhaps as high as 1.6 to match PPS Sieve and Moo credits (based on what I remember !)


Just as expected :)

Well, 1.6 is propably what we should shoot for Reb - so we need to have credit that resembles for 77-78 bit 165000x1.6 = 264000. That way we will align with Primegrid and Moo.

To be honest, I don't think that it is fair by Collatz :( They are seriously distorting the true amount of computations done by the BOINC community :(

Thanks for your usefull and enlightning feedback :)


Agree. Now you should align the 72-73 bits credit and so forth.


Ah I see, must be 5000 ^^, updated in DB

<cmdline>-d 0</cmdline> (or -d 1) no longer works like it used to to be able to tell which GPU to use. On Windows 10 with NVIDIA GPUs.

EDIT: Had to reset Project as it still had the job_GPU72_x63c_00002.xml file in the folder. After a reset everything working like it was before the change. Let's hope it stays that way.

Collatz is the worst example. Making credit like collatz will attract all the point whores and cheaters.

That is just sad :( ... to be honest, I've always been in this for the science. A good measurement of how much science has been done, is in fact the pure uninflated/undeflated cobblestone. Now, because of Collatz and most likely also other projects, it is virtually impossible to tell wether we actually computed more science one year back, compared to the years before that. Well, this is not for the credit hunters. Of course we all should work together on getting credit right, such that people get what they should have, without beeing too much off to either side.

Should be back to normal, v12 are back, there is something wrong with the new wrapper (maybe digital signature from BOINC) and thats why it called beta

I'm not sure if this is worth anything, but now that I think about it, Rieselsieve, also had a lot of errors, when they upgraded from one version of an app to a newer one. If I recall correct, it may have something to do with the workunit once created is tied to a certain app. Maybe v13 can be implemented, but only for the new work. As mentioned not sure if this is infact the problem, or if I recall correctly, it is afterall more than 10 years back in time :)

Good job Reb :)

It was on only one of my linux machines, the others all had failed to download.

Nope, WU creation doesnt impact the app.

There are some issues with output files where different factors are in one result and some duplicates, need to check whats going on here.

Update:
server daemons are ok, found the affected host, will do a deeper check.
