I'm also not seeing any CPU usage on BOINCtasks.  Hope this helps

On my Windows 10 Anniversary edition hosts, that state (no CPU consumption, no progress) turned out to mean there was a Windows pop-up window announcing to me that the application had failed and waiting my response as to what to do. 

I think a mass abort of any 1.56 stuff on any Windows 64-bit hosts is probably the right move.  Happily I did not get many of them, and I'm currently eagerly awaiting the first results of promoted 1.57 tasks from three of my machines.  Interim observations appear to show faster progress and somewhat higher power consumption (and thus slightly higher GPU temperatures).  1.56 bad, 1.57 good so far here.

I got a few V1.56 that

I got a few V1.56 that crashed after 10 seconds. But now the V1.57 is running fine and about 25% to 30% faster than the CUDA32 tasks.

In just a very few hours my hosts have returned quite a few 1.57 BRP4G CUDA55 results, of which six (from three different hosts) have already validated.  The elapsed time reduction is significant.

The BRP4G CUDA 5.5

The BRP4G CUDA 5.5 application is working well on my host. 11 tasks have validated. The runtime per task with GPU utilization factor set to 1.00 went from ~667 seconds with CUDA 3.2 to ~560 seconds with CUDA 5.5.

For now I issued the BRP4G Cuda 5.5 app versions as "Beta", as these were on BRP6, so you can decide yourself whether to run these or not.

 

Thanks Bernd.  I've finally picked up a good quantity of these Units on Andromeda.  (MAC OSX with two GTX-750TI SC cards.)  They seem to be running fine.  Smile

I'm wondering how I just got

I'm wondering how I just got the einsteinbinary_BRP4G_1.56_windows_x86_64__BRP4G-Beta-cuda55.exe application for Task 257944943 if the 64 bit version is supposedly deprecated.  Also it seems that others are receiving the 1.57 version.  I don't see that version at all in the Applications page.

Hi, I just started

Hi, I just started Einstein@home again after 2.5 years. I just bought a GTX1070 and seeing these runtimes for the WUs.

Keep in mind , I only ran a few of them in any configuration: (App V 1.57 Win10 x64 , i7-3770 @ 3.9GHz)

1 WU - 900s

2 WU - 1550 s  (775s for 1 WU)

3 WU - 2370 s  (790s for 1 WU)

4 WU - 3020 s  (755s for 1 WU)

Do other people with a similar setup (GTX1070) see times like these?

No comment from anyone so far

No comment from anyone so far about my deprecated app received today.  I'm concerned because when this app was issued for BRP6, EVERY task errored out within seconds of starting. Should I just delete the new task assigned this deprecated app?

I got 4 they crashed, which let me to here, but then I got the new ones. I would try maybe 1 or 2 and if they crash on your system, I would just aboard them.

Keith cancel any v1.56 work units. 

Hopefully you will start to get the v1.57 soon
