Badge Thread Only !!!

FWIW, this is what they do on my iMac with a GTX 680MX (this is a mobile GPU):

Genefer (regular): ~19.5 hours, pays 29,333, or 1504 c/h
Genefer (world record): ~220.5 hours (~9.2 days), pays 556,725, or 2525 c/h
(just for comparison, on a TITAN, the WR take about 89 hours)

Both use very little CPU, no reserving of threads needed, and both checkpoint. So if you are going to run Genefer, choose the WR kind. Both types of credits go to the same badge. The only reason to crunch the shorter one is if you need hours against another app for wuprop stars.

Thank you zombie, I guess I will reselect the WR WU's. I think I have a tendency to micromanage when the GPU's are doing mega length WU's and the RAC takes a strong dip down. Then again, the regular GFN WU's on my GT 430, take 640,549.05 seconds (~ 7.5 days), so the WR GFN's are an eternity.

Got my 5th wuprop star. Back to working on the blue ones.

Third star went Gold Attachment 1495

So colorful!

Very cool! So now that just means recycling all those projects through your CPUs until they all turn blue, right?

Well, sort of. Some were extremely difficult to even get to 100 hours. Some apps have been changed and no longer have wus. In theory, you are correct, but I'm sure it won't work that way in practice.

It just got a lot more challenging to get the top stars in wuprop - http://wuprop.boinc-af.org/badges.php

Finally! Looks like the preferences page list is already updated, but not yet the badges. I will change from 5x blue to 1x magenta and 4x blue when that happens.

Also good news, it looks like he is still considering a second badge with more stars. Currently, I have enough for an additional red, gold and bronze stars (8 stars in total).

Sebastien was kind enough to send me a zip of all the new badges, so they should be ready to go as soon as he updates the xml to contain the new levels

And now my badge has been updated, at least on the project site.

Only 1,142 years of crunching. I might get this before my 100th birthday. Assuming they start making procesors with hundreds of cores.
