1) Message boards : Number crunching : What do YAFU credits do? (Message 1735) Posted 24 Aug 2023 by mmonnin Post: The same as every other BOINC project. Yafu is not whitelisted.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Wrong Core Parameter on 8t WUs? (Message 1621) Posted 4 Jun 2022 by mmonnin Post: Now the update ratio of the log files seems to be quite low, but still it looks like it is still doing something... only the stderr.txt seems to be updated more often, for both tasks 04/06/2022 07:52 - factor.log 04/06/2022 07:52 - ggnfs.log 31/05/2022 21:21 - session.log 04/06/2022 16:50 - stderr.txt 04/06/2022 07:52 - wrapper_checkpoint.txt 04/06/2022 06:55 - factor.log 04/06/2022 06:55 - ggnfs.log 02/06/2022 09:27 - session.log 04/06/2022 16:50 - stderr.txt 04/06/2022 06:55 - wrapper_checkpoint.txt and with deadlines that were on 01/06 and 03/06 will they still be considered if they ever return a result ? My client has some tasks with a deadline of June 4th but the project site says the 15th.

Please check if newly downloaded wus are using now 8 threads. yoyo Yes one PC got 2 tasks in the last hour and they are both 8t according to BOINC. Some prior tasks have been using more CPU time than run time. Thanks.
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Wrong Core Parameter on 8t WUs? (Message 1611) Posted 1 Jun 2022 by mmonnin Post: I agree. This PC has no app_config and project preferences I have it set to "Max # CPUs 8" yet several PCs are running single threaded unless I make an app_config to set something else. https://yafu.myfirewall.org/yafu/result.php?resultid=8009237 14:26:12 (72084): wrapper: running yafu (-threads 1 -batchfile in) CPU time is less than run time and nowhere close to 8x run time.
