Are you setting low CPU time because you have high temps?
Personally i prefer to set the maximum concurrent running task by reducing the % o CPU and leaving CPU time at 100%

For example on your i3-4030u (4t) you can set % of CPUs between 50 and 74% to run 2wus, 75 to 99% to run 3wu

I also suggest you to check your runnig background app, because on the I3 you're using 6.9GB of RAM while on the I7 is 5.8GB with doble of active wus

Congratulations to all Teams and Cruncher :)
Congratulation to Planet3DNow for the victory

Challenge produced over 74 Milions credit and around +15% progress on targets
The project also break the 50.000 GFLOPS mark

Thank you for the Pentathlon, folks! Many computations performed and we reached a 40% of completion for fifth target (corona_Eprot_v1).



Congratulation to whole Sidock team for providing plenty wus :)
If i remember correctly, before start it was at 16%
Do you have an estimation on how many wus were processed?

Be interesting to see what happens to OpenPandemics when folks want to continue running OPNG but are stuck getting OPN simultaneously.
This may be easy to do. Here's the setup that's working for me:
Set SD to Resource Zero.
My BOINC work queue is set to 0.50/0.01 days.
Set WCG OpenPandemics - COVID-19 Project Limit to 64.
Suspend enough OPN WUs so that SD WUs DL and add up to more than half a day.
Unsuspend OPN WUs.
OPNG WUs continue to be DLed but no more OPN WUs.


If you want only OPNG wus it easy.
in your wcg device profile (home, woek, school) select only OpenPandemics.
Then below "processor Usage" set " Allow research to run on my CPU?" to "NO"
in " Graphics Card Usage" enable your GPU by setting "YES" near your GPU type
Save the profile

Be aware that OPenPandemics is currently under GPU stress test, so there are lot of wus. After that thwy will return to low numbr wus

The BOINC Pentathlon team selected SiDock@home as this year's Marathon project. The Marathon discipline is announced on 30 April and runs for two weeks from 05 through 18 May.
SiDock@home team
By leaking the secret you can look forward to massive bunkering like you can't imagine. You're really going to need that new server.



The leak has no impact. The Marathon will be announced tomorrow (April 30th)
People will be able to download "valid" wus from May 2nd
Therefore hype would have been there anyway

However such long wus will surely help to spread the load. They need only build plenty wu buffer before sunday

I think that we can guarantee a fair challenge. Just by reducing the deadline. :)



With current 3 days deadline there is no problem at all
The marathon had to be announced on April 30th with start on May 5th. You need to wait till May 2nd to download "valid" wus

If i remember correctly each wu composed by 500 compound is 2MB
I don't knof if a 100 compound wu will be much smaller (es: 0.2MB). If not, there may be a disk space problem

Hello Aurum!

Now such deadline vitally for project, because if we increase deadline, project exhaust HDD space in current server. Short deadline -> short time for results hold. :) We plan to migrate to other server.


Do you hve some estimation on space occuped by wu of each target?

Thank you for info! I think that we can produce about 3 or4 tasks time more than now.



Are you considering to distribute the fifth target already? Togheter with the fourth?

Hi all,
I'm here to inform you tat the next week will begin this year Sprint season on Formula Boinc. Here the calendar http://formula-boinc.org/sprint.py?lang=it&year=2021
The chosen project will only be known 24 hours before the start of the sprint.

SiDock is eligible for a Sprint in theese dates and there will be a large demand for work if the project is chosen

Yes, they are docked against the library of ~1 billion compounds. Now we have quorum 2, so about 2 billion WUs.


1 billion wu each target? WOW


Next 20
