cuda-sieve for moderate numbers and may cuda-sieve for large numbers works, but cuda-sieve itself did not count. Can someone check this?

Odi


Check again. You have cuda-sieve. There has been very little work for the large numbers app and none in awhile.

I've had a number of WUprop 4.37 WUs go to over 7 hours and hang with 0:59 remaining. They used to always run for one hour. When I see it I abort them. What's up with that?

I suspect what may be happening is that it's TOU metering season. I suspend project WUs during peak hours but I don't suspend WUprop.

That's why the post with the code was linked, not the project home page which does not have the code.

You can NOT read the forums without first going through registration & logging in.

That's why I mentioned that the code was available on the home page (when NOT logged in).

Another new one:
"BitBOINC" https://bitboinc.athena.org.tr/

lots of platforms supported for 2 CPU apps with work available:
Potamos (sequential keyspace scan)
Keraunos (bounded discrete-log search)

2 GPU apps seem to be on the way soon:
Potamos GPU (sequential keyspace scan, CUDA)
Potamos Metal (sequential keyspace scan, Apple GPU)

Not sure that is a actual BOINC Project ? Makes no mention of BOINC just BitBoinc ???

Yes it's a BOINC project and WuProp already recognized the project

The application Potamos (sequential keyspace scan) from project bitboinc is active

It looks like the BitBOINC GPU apps have (correctly) been folded into the main app with various plan classes

Any stats for the old separate apps should probably be folded into the main app:

Potamos (GPU|Metal|OpenCL) (sequential keyspace scan, *) would map to Potamos (sequential keyspace scan)
Keraunos (GPU|Metal|OpenCL) (bounded discrete-log search, *) would map to Keraunos (bounded discrete-log search)

I can't get Boinc to install it on any pc so far, Linux or Windows, once I get that done I can copy the relevant files and just drop it into all my pc's in the correct folder.

I had that problem once before with projects that require a code/passphrase on the registration page.

*** Solution is to open the website in your favorite web browser and manually register your account and set up various preferences before attaching my PC's.

I was wrong I got it to install on one pc but that's all, and yes I put the code in. BitBoinc on the other hand is up and running on any pc I put it on!! On the pc's it won't install Boinc doesn't find the Project at all, it just says 'project not found'. I know what i'm putting is correct because I'm copying and pasting it. And yes I leave the forum stuff off when I do it.

More oddness from bitboinc...

Am currently gaining hours for both "Sphinx (Certicom ECCp-131 discrete-log search)" and "Sphinx (Certicom ECC Challenge discrete-log search)" apps

But only "Sphinx (Certicom ECC Challenge discrete-log search)" is visible on their apps page and on my machines.

Could they both be merged into "Sphinx (Certicom ECC Challenge discrete-log search)" please?

BitBoinc is now running Kampylos (gravitational microlensing) CPU WUs.

Don't run it. the tasks do not validate and no credit will be given. The server status proves it.
