The new PPS(sieve) tasks for new app are out (sort of) [cpu/gpu]
They are hard to come by, but there are new PPS(sieve) tasks out for the new app. There are cpu and gpu apps out. So far, it looks like the gpu/cuda app works well enough, but it appears the credits awarded are less than before per time crunched. A word of warning: the last cpu app tasks I tried for linux error-ed out complaining of an invalid "T" option. Anyways, since the last challenge of the year uses this subproject, I thought I would do some test runs. My gpu(cuda) tasks seem to be doing ok. Will post an update when the Linux CPU app gets stable.
Update:
Quote:
All CPU apps have been pulled until they are fixed. The -T flag forces use of the new tpsieve version. This will help prevent any app_info users from mistakenly using ppsieve which would only produce +1 factors. tpsieve is producing +1 AND -1 factors.
We do not yet have Mac version of any of the apps. However, that should be resolved in the next couple of days.
As for credit, adjustments will be made as necessary...which means yes, they will be increasing.

Update: for the cuda app, a task takes about as long as a dnetc task and the credit is 600 per.
We're going to have our hands full at this next challenge. There's apparently also an ATI app. We're going to need every GPU we can get our hands on.

ATI? Yeh baby, now we're talking! ;)

Where to you see that? Is it a manual install?

I think it's all automatic considering it's a new app. I know the cuda app is released. There is an active thread in the PPS sub-project forum at Primegrid.

It looks to me that they aren't spitting out ATI WUs right now... Is that what other folks are seeing? I mean, I tried earlier today and got nothing...

I'm not getting any work from them ATI or cpu.

I picked the PPS Sieve. I'll try resetting the project as the main page says there is 14k of wu's sitting there.
resetting did not work still not getting any wu's . Also if there is anything I have to do to allow my ATI card to cruch I'm going to need a bit of help. If anyone has this running on their ATI cards let me know. My box is running vista ultimate 64

BOINC is not asking for any GPU work. Did you remember to turn on CUDA or ATI on in your project preferences?
Re: The new PPS(sieve) tasks for new app are out (sort of) [cpu/gpu]
Yup,
Resource share
Determines the proportion of your computer's resources allocated to this project. Example: if you participate in two BOINC projects with resource shares of 100 and 200, the first will get 1/3 of your resources and the second will get 2/3. 100
Use CPU
Enforced by version 6.10+ yes
Use ATI GPU
Enforced by version 6.10+ yes
Use NVIDIA GPU
Enforced by version 6.10+ yes
