Re: MOO Wrapper Happy Holidays!
So, my last wu (Link) took 948.36 seconds and was awarded 3,686.40 credits.
3,686.40/948.36*86400=335848 credits/day
Previous results:
16,653.60/4,315.63*86400=333409 credits/day
So, the rate is the same, apparently I just got a shorter wu. This is with "Holiday" credits.
Considering that 'holiday' credits are about 2.5x normal and my gtx is dual core working on 1 task:
335848/2.5/2=67169.6 credits/day per core. This is basically what I had estimated before. So, actually nothing has changed.
will try running the benchmark as soon as I can get my client to download the ...stream.exe file. It's not currentl y in my moo!wrap directory for some reason.

It has 2 free threads atm and the cpu % fluctuates between 89-90%.
Re: MOO Wrapper Happy Holidays!
I don't think you can look at any one unit to measure performance on moo. Mine are all over the place. You really need to measure day vs day.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you should be looking for the cuda version, not stream...I think stream is for benchmarking the ati's only. I could be wrong on that though.

Yeah, I think you are right. It wouldn't download. I even turned on cpu processing in the project configuration and eventually tried a reset.
I ran the cuda bench and it said to use #1. So, I've set that.
Re: MOO Wrapper Happy Holidays!
Personally I think the Benchmark thing to choose a CPU Core is a lot of wasted time, also shutting down 1-2 or 3 Cores. I tested shutting down Cores (3 on my HT 12 Thread E980x's) and didn't see 1 bit of time difference or Credit difference for either my 6990 or 590's ... I also did a little looking around at guy'z Box's that say their using this Core or that Core & my Wu's run just as fast as theirs just using AUTO Select unless they have theirs Overclocked more than mine.
I also discovered a long time ago that setting the # of CPU's to use to <ncpus>0</ncpus> that the GPU's WU from any GPU Project will automatically use the amount of CPU that it needs to use without any input from me. I don't know how that works since I set it to use 0 CPU but it must be something the BOINC Client Automatically adjusts for when running GPU Wu's because at times depending on the GPU Wu's I'm running I have 2-3 or 4 CPU's running on a Quad Core or 4-5 or 6 running on a 6 Core Box.
I know that works for Client 6.12.34 & up but not sure about anything lower than that ...
Re: MOO Wrapper Happy Holidays!
I ran the bench on this dual system and the #2 core looked to be the best. Problem is that if you have more than 3 systems running Moo and you set each to a different location and set the core #, won't systems set to the same location run differently with the same core number selected?
Re: MOO Wrapper Happy Holidays!
aye.. also seems like they stopped sending out work, just noticed
also, no colatz or MW... so what should i use for backup?

I think some of the factors that influence Moo production include hardware make and system setup. I have 3 5830s, one is a HIS and other two are Sapphire units. And each computer is different, i7 920 (Socket 1366) running Win7 x64, i7 860 (Socket 1156) running WinXP Pro x64 Corp. and a Phenom II 810 Running WinXP Pro x64. When the HIS was the only one I had I "thought" I was getting good credits but I didn't know anything about the benchmarking or why to reserve CPU cores. After I started running the Sapphire cards I discovered they were way outperforming the HIS. Maxwell and Bryan turned me on to maxing out the HIS which increased that cards output somewhere in the 20~30 range. Sorry I forgot the exact amount.
Your mileage may vary....
