Topic 229927

Since I am only supporting Gravitational Wave tasks on Einstein@home, which have moved to GPU; Rosetta@home, which sends out tasks only intermittently; and WCG, which seems to be running out of tasks, I will soon be running no distributed computing tasks since I joined SETI@home in October 2002. Almost 21 years (saving you the arithmetic). I have looked at the BOINC list of projects and none of the others particularly appeal to me. Any suggestions?

You coud try some of these:

Albert https://albertathome.org/

Gaia       http://150.254.66.104/gaiaathome/

LHC-dev    https://lhcathomedev.cern.ch/lhcathome-dev/

http://parlea.ru/boinctest/

PrimeGrid-dev https://dev.primegrid.com/

Private GFN Server  http://boincvm.proxyma.ru:30080/test4vm/

Ralph(Rosetta-dev) https://ralph.bakerlab.org/

TN-Grid   gene.disi.unitn.it/test/

Wanless   bearnol.is-a-geek.com/wanless2/

WUProp    wuprop.boinc-af.org/

Yafu      https://yafu.myfirewall.org/yafu/

Not all of them have tasks and some are still in the startup or working things out phase but they are worth a look. Also if you haven't looked in the Boinc Manager to add a task recently there could be some new ones in there as well.

Thanks. I'm trying

Thanks. I'm trying MilkyWay@home. WCG put out some more tasks, too, after running out for a while.

I think MooWrapper can use your gpu's if you want to try, I have an NVIDIA Quadro K600 (981MB) driver: 470.16 OpenCL: 3.0 that works just fine, it's far from the fastest but it does work. It's running in a Linux pc but that shouldn't make any difference.

Also I think Private GFN Server  http://boincvm.proxyma.ru:30080/test4vm/ which is run by someone from PrimeGrid doing tasks that PrimeGrid itself doesn't do can use your gpu's as well. They are running smaller tasks so the 4gb onboard memory requirement isn't there.
