Is not so bad, just install it.
The Sculpture is from my master not by myself, just cleaned it several times. He is dying having Parkinson this days
and got nearly blind. Would honor him this way though it makes me sad.

So, I have two machines with dual 7970s. One crunches the new POEM stuff great, the other nothing but errors. The successful one is running 14.3 beta drivers. The other was 13.12, I think. Anyway, I did a scrubbed uninstall and then installed 14.3, and it is now crunching POEM successfully. No idea if that was just a coincidence or because of the driver upgrade. But for those with failing AMD tasks, try it.
Yep. This always happens when project launch a new app on Fridays.

Hi everybody,
I'm afraid the release turned out to be a mess. There are much more problems than we have seen on the test server.
The worst thing was my own fault: I thought turning off the GPU sorter would suffice to get work units out of the queue, but in fact all failed units were sent out again. Sorry for that, which I should have known.
It should now be fixed.
I'll grant credits for jobs which failed after taking CPU time as soon as possible.
We do now know possible causes for the errors, and are fixing them. There will be a second test phase, but I can't give you a schedule yet.

If anyone cares, poem is testing gpu wus again. They have separate test server you need to connect to, I think. Check their site for details.
Notes on the new GPU app so far:
Project updater needed to get wus flowing
Only running on the R9 295x2, increased from 1 wu per r9 290x gpu to 2 wus per gpu and it took no more time. Double the credit same amount of time. Keeping about 4 cpu threads free for the 4 wus. Completing 4 wus every 2.25 hours (11,555 credits an hour, on collatz the card produces ~130,400/hr).
Usage is still less than 100% on the GPUs, I haven't tried 3 or more wus.
Power usage and heat are a lot less than collatz (not hard to do).
We have another thread on the new app with run times, etc here:
