Poem new GPU app update

[myshortpencil]

app_info file not needed. easier to use app_config.xml (they can even be dynamically loaded).

Thanks. So is there a link to the current app_config.xml file?

Well, it's not the project as the next one errored out at 5200 seconds. I just got home and have now aborted all the work I had in my cache. Detached and reattached to the project and downloaded more work. This seems to be more "normal"...1 wu at 65% usage, which is more like I'd expect. We'll see how these go.

The Duke of Buckingham found it for me. It's here: http://www.setiusa.us/showthread.php...app_config-xml

Thanks Duke

Edit the GPU and CPU values as needed.

Finished two tasks (at a time) on my TITAN. Took 8400 seconds each. 6500 credits each. That works out to ~133k/day.

For one of my dual 7970 machines, I am also running two tasks per card. With the two tasks, it is pegged at 99% flat. Unlike the TITAN, I need to reserve only .5 CPU thread per task.

So that means the credits for Poem GPUs are far less than for the retired version.

Shoot, they're less than DiRT and Collatz, now, aren't they?

Yes, they are.

I did get 2 to validate on my 7970, running 2 at a time with .5 cpu per task

Completed and validated 6,865.27 2,103.69 6,500.00 POEM++ OpenCL version v2.00 (opencl_ati_100)
Completed and validated 6,846.81 2,088.01 6,500.00 POEM++ OpenCL version v2.00 (opencl_ati_100)

Looks to be about 163k/day on a 7970

For the old app, I seem to recall that running more tasks at a time did not increase the load, but it did increase production significantly. So for someone with a 580 and an 8 thread CPU, the best thing to do would be to run like 6 tasks at a time, with no CPU tasks. If I recall correctly.

Edit: I'm going to try running a bunch over night on the TITAN and see what it does.

One of the two in the machine is factory OC at 1050. It did a pair in 7700 seconds each, or 146k/day. The other card is slightly OC by me at 975, and did the pair in 8300 seconds, or 135k/day.
