Message boards : Number crunching : Server Problems. ( Message 6069 )Posted 2462 days ago by Trilce Estrada Yes, we had very bad problems in the server room, starvation was one of them, unfortunately very short workunits was even worst. Hopefully you are not getting some of these nasty jobs. We are working to bring docking back to normal. So sorry for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience |

Message boards : Number crunching : All the work NO pay! ( Message 5948 )Posted 2623 days ago by Trilce Estrada Thank you Conan for helping out with this question. It is indeed as you said. Specifically for Docking, we modified the transitioner daemon so that even if a time-out, error, or client disconnection occurs we don't send a second replica. This is because in order to assign credits as fast as possible, we don't use replication and this condition was causing that second or third replicas were not assigned credits. Now, to check errors we have a postprocessing phase where results that do not make sense are set aside and they do not interfere with the good computation. So far this technique is working well and we get very good accuracy of our results. Thank you both, and have a good day |

Message boards : Number crunching : Stress on the server ( Message 5935 )Posted 2637 days ago by Trilce Estrada Hi David, We are a medium-size project with about 30,000 computers, still our server can handle this amount of activity very well. Thus, so far we don't need to restrict connections; but we appreciate your willingness to restrict your network activity, and your concerns about the project. Thanks a lot!!! |

Message boards : Windows : Progress at 100% but status is "Waiting to run" . Won't report. ( Message 5912 )Posted 2674 days ago by Trilce Estrada Those workinits with 100% and ---- in the 'to completion' column are finished their computation and are just waiting to be returned, it could be that the connection interval of your machine is set too high and they are waiting to be returned, you can hit the button 'update' and see if they are indeed uploaded to the server. For the 'waiting to run' it could be the client scheduler that moved from docking to a different application just right before the completion, check if it is indeed executing something else, if that is not the case try restarting the project |

Message boards : Web site : profile creation ( Message 5911 )Posted 2674 days ago by Trilce Estrada No, just total credit. We used to have a lot of spammers creating profiles for ads, that's why we decided to increase the amount of credits needed to create a profile. Once you get there you should be able to create it successfully Regards |

Message boards : Docking@Home Science : Crossdocking ( Message 5903 )Posted 2681 days ago by Trilce Estrada Hi Eduard, Thank you for your note, and I'm sorry I didn't respond before, as you might have seen after march 7 we had a crisis here. Fortunately everything is better now, and I had time to check the other threads of the forums. Yes, we are indeed following the first route you mentioned. I'm sure that in the future, when our algorithms are strong we will follow also the second route and produce in that case more interesting results. Well, thank you again, this kind of comments make my day =) Best |
