Hi all, thanks for the updates on this. Just getting back into the office after a week out. Checking on this now and will report back when I know more.

Thanks all- just getting back into the office after a week out. Checking on these now.

Hi autogrog, Thank you for posting about this and apologies for the delayed response as I'm current OOO. At the moment as far as we can tell this is an issue with the amount of load going to 128.252.203.11(12) as these two servers currently house the bulk of the available FAH jobs. To prevent server...

Hi aetech, Thanks for the note and apologies about the slow delay as I was OOO. Compression is reenabled for this project and should be hitting any new jobs that go out. In an effort to increase throughput on individual servers we were testing whether compression was needed for this job. Compression...

Hi all, Thanks for the notes on this. As gunnarre highlights, the bulk of GPU jobs available on FAH are currently housed on this server, meaning that a lot of the FAH GPU folders are currently bearing down on this server. To manage this load, we have set a relatively strict assignment cap on this se...

Thank you for the notice. I went in and dialed back the assignment rates for the jobs uploading to these two servers.

Projects 18210-18212 are now on folding at home! https://stats.foldingathome.org/project/18210 https://stats.foldingathome.org/project/18211 https://stats.foldingathome.org/project/18212 Stats: <atoms v="302700"/> <timeout v="2"/> <deadline v="5"/> <stats-credit v="...

Ah, I see- thanks for the clarification. I'll check in with our collection server again and will report back! EDIT- Since we have many WUs coming back successfully when uploaded to the work server and all of these reports seem to follow a consistent trend (WS busy -> upload to CS -> CS dumps) we've ...

Hi Aetch, The log you posted is for Project 17804, Run 83, Clone 289, Gen 77. Would you be willing to post the log for project:18202 run:1927 clone:2 gen:5? Some of the gap that you're seeing on the WU status app is because we actually took this project down for ~8 days to resolve some server issues...

Hi all, Apologies as I forgot to update this post last week. Approximately one and a half weeks ago highland1, the work server which this project is housed on, was overloaded and then suffered several performance issues as a result. We temporarily halted jobs last week in attempt to resolve these se...

Hi all, Sorry for the silence from FAH science team. There is indeed both a GPU and CPU work unit shortage. A couple of reasons drive this- first and foremost we do our best to make sure that every WU we release is scientifically valuable so that you are not wasting your time or electricity on meani...

The configuration of 128.252.203.11 is really strange in that it functions as both a WS and a CS. One thing that we've noticed so far is that in the WUs being dumped our trajectory file hasn't been updated with the newest generations that have come back. For example, in R1245:C3:G9 the trajectory fi...

Hi mgetz, Yes, 18202 went through internal and beta testing and performed well in both. One issue that it seems like we see (especially for bigger systems as we have in 18201/18202) is that differences in the GPU being used can severely change the stability of a project. Based on the current stats, ...
