Because I do not have a double P card I will be working the other side of this to help make sure it continues to get funded, also there are badges to be had _________________

I'm back in & running GPU (4870 ati) on Milkyway
(*new milestone @17,000,000)
AND
running Antminer U3 on Milkyway project #3 for Bitcoin Utopia
(*64,000,000 for the first day)
Still on one machine so not yet confident about adding in CPU projects on my 4 core because Antminer U3 uses a full core and Milkyway GPU uses a little and WUProp NCI is running too. _________________

Ni!
I could not get any workunits to work! AAARRRGGHH! (and it is not even talk like a pirate day!)
I reset project, tweaked app_config, and nothing. So I in frustration removed the project and started over. Bam! New work units! Yeah!. Still don't get 100% usage out of the 980's but I did a tiny tweak to run 2 WUs and now I am running more better.
Sorry for the delay!
I should be full force on this by end of today. Count me in until the end of the month for MW!
Lets get some shrubberies!
SBSP
P.S. I also should move into 7th place overall in BOINC today! I plan on 5th by end of week. Imagine a Knight where it certainly does not belong!

This is what I'm using - gpu only. I don't know how many a 980 can do concurrently, gpu-z can help you with that. Adjust the numbers for the template below. My card is only about 85% utilized and it runs 5 concurrently (mix of both apps, though I will shut one of them off soon so I can get them both green in wuprop). Both apps seem to use about 17%. If your cards are on the same machine you may need to do other tweaks. Shrub on!
Code: | <app_config>
<app>
<name>milkyway</name>
<max_concurrent>5</max_concurrent>
<gpu_versions>
<gpu_usage>0.2</gpu_usage>
<cpu_usage>0.05</cpu_usage>
</gpu_versions>
</app>
<app>
<name>milkyway_separation__modified_fit</name>
<gpu_versions>
<gpu_usage>0.2</gpu_usage>
<cpu_usage>0.05</cpu_usage>
</gpu_versions>
</app>
</app_config> |
