results summary so far:

- output files all matched

After we have tested mfakto on windows with RX6000, 7000 we can restart with new productive WUs.

If you found an error which I have missed pls post it here.

Message 10363 - Posted: 9 Jan 2025, 20:58:30 UTC

So I got a TF task on Windows 11 (Rx 7700 XT). It's done pretty quickly, but seems to be stuck and doesn't let other GPU tasks run:

Is this the new app or old app and do I need to reset boinc?

What does the last line in your stderr.txt file say?

Tasks not finishing on a GTX-1070ti.
They get to 100% in about 5 minutes and keep running. I paused the first at 20:19 and the second one looks to be the same.
I got 40 tasks and it doesn't look good.

Please look in your stderr.txt, last line.
predicted times are completely off. For me, it shows 8 seconds predicted, but actually they run aprox 15 min on my RTX3070.

So I guess there's a bit of discrepancy between Boinc and Sterr.txt (mine was in C:\ProgramData\BOINC\slots\1). I Ran a new task which completed after 7:43 minutes, this one seems to be completed:

Last entry before new task got started:

Jan 09 23:20 | 4524 97.9% | 2.077 0m42s | 1398.18 81206 0.00%

97.9% -> Current Progress
0m42s -> Estimated time until your WU is finished


in theory, boinc should get a better expected time when you have finished a few wus.

Edit:typo

OK it looks like they may take 45 Minutes or so, I'll let them run awhile.

How long did the old app version take at you gpu?
For me, it looks like runtimes are quite identical between old and new app version.
