Posted 24 Jul 2026 by Garrulus glandarius Post: Oh yeah, SiDock was raised from the dead after a catastrophic failure in April. The ebola project has been resumed. Over 2/3 of the project is yet to be crunched. Plenty of work there. |

Posted 24 Jul 2026 by Garrulus glandarius Post: Maybe when the university year starts there will be some new research needed for someone's PhD. Other than that, there has been no work since May. |

Posted 1 Apr 2026 by Garrulus glandarius Post: The increase is insane on my end as well. Got under 1,6m showing in boincstats, had a bit over 2m actually credited (a few days ago), over 3m yesterday and right now it's up to 4,5m. I'm not sure I actually crunched this much... |

Posted 31 Mar 2026 by Garrulus glandarius Post: BOINC Stats is yet to update WCG credits but there's definitely progress in general. Most of my rigs are still busy with Rosetta and SiDock but I saw a steady stream if MCM tasks which is quite promising. |

Posted 6 Mar 2026 by Garrulus glandarius Post: There have been small intermittent batches for about a week now. The latest one is visibly larger. Gotta keep trying to grab whatever we can! |

Posted 11 Feb 2026 by Garrulus glandarius Post: Hi Bill, Thanks a lot! Just got it set up on 3 computers, hopefully I'll catch something sometimes... About 2 hours ago I only got tasks on 2 mobile phones despite rushing to press update on several computers. |

Posted 31 Dec 2025 by Garrulus glandarius Post: Which indicates their CPU's are busy doing work other than BOINC. There are periods when those laptops are used, but they also idle a lot and are running 24/7. The Ultra 5 has a mix of performance and efficiency cores and I think it swaps tasks between them while running. I've seen the same pattern with all projects on that laptop. When running very standardized tasks like WCG I can sometimes see the 8+10 thread setup based on the speed at which tasks are running. The other laptop is old and worn out, it simply runs all tasks longer than expected, in every project. xx days + 0.01 additional days is best. Oh, I wasn't aware, thanks for pointing it out! |

Posted 31 Dec 2025 by Garrulus glandarius Post: Fair enough if you've got reliability concerns. You have to do whatever you need to to remain successful. Here's the current, possibly final setup: - I kept the 4-hour runtime on the Intel Ultra and the old i7-1165G7 which both tend to run longer than the set time. - After testing 12-hour tasks which resulted in similar credits/hour as the regular 8-hour tasks, I'll keep the 2 workhorse 5825Us and two old Intels with 8-hour tasks. Cache is set to 2+0,5 days on all machines. |

Posted 29 Dec 2025 by Garrulus glandarius Post: Got my last new task at 09:22 UTC, only some resends after that moment. Right now I have set all PCs to run tasks for 4 hours because some PCs behave unpredictably and may actually run tasks for longer (mainly the i7-1165G7 and, somewhat surprisingly, the Ultra 5 125H). The Ryzen 5285Us should be fine running regular 8 hour tasks (with a somewhat reduced cache for safety), but the first two would probably need an even smaller cache, under 2 days. I will try messing around with the setting but until the next large wave of work I won't really be able to stress test the setup. I did read parts of the discussion you mentioned but will admit that I also didn't put in the effort to properly read and assimilate everything. Either way, thanks for the tip! I'm making changes right now. |

Posted 29 Dec 2025 by Garrulus glandarius Post: What a nice surprise: there was a batch of non-beta tasks dropped about an hour ago. Managed to restock some of my rigs that were soon going to run out of all Rosetta work. |

Posted 29 Dec 2025 by Garrulus glandarius Post: I managed to get the results page to load and can confirm that PV jail has fewer inmates. Used to have around 1400 tasks pending, now down to under 1200. Among them are still some that were reported back in August. It doesn't seem to be constant though. I'm only crunching WCG on an 8-threaded phone CPU and the rate at which tasks are usually validated is close to the rate at which that single phone is reporting new results. I checked my contribution graph and there was a big spike a few days ago. Guess it was my turn to have a batch validated and since then other users are the lucky ones. At least I hope that's the case, otherwise validation would be stagnating overall. |

Posted 28 Dec 2025 by Garrulus glandarius Post: Got my last new task at 09:22 UTC, only some resends after that moment. I still have over 600 tasks cached (630-650 was the normal interval while there was a constant supply) but I don't expect resends to be able to hold the line for long. Was a nice run though, let's hope there will be more in the new year. Until then I'm moving over to SiDock and WCG as secondary. |

Posted 28 Dec 2025 by Garrulus glandarius Post: Well, after 6 hours I only see a few newly reported tasks added to PV jail but non seem to have been validated. I guess it might be because of the hundreds of thousands of tasks waiting to be validated. |
