duhhh Tony had it in the post he asked me in, sorry Tony. "have another beer Mark"

OK, I had a beer, and I now have 2 980TI's running Einstein@home.

Its all good, just getting home and popping my first top.

I'm not as think as you drunk I am, Ossifer. hiccup

 

[Markfw]

So how do I track how well I am doing on this project ? And what is normal for 2 980TI's ?

 

[Ken g6]

we have the baseline stats, Cross Country has begun

Dumping time!

My RAC/ppd wont show it right now, but my 2 980's hit about 700K avg, so your Ti's should be better than that.

Stats here:http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?page=team&proj=eah&team=12

Edit: I think the payout for each work unit valid is 3,465 pts. Here is my system.

We got 2,551,295 yesterday, and this is (I assume) mostly from our normal members who aren't even aware there is a race going on, so that's pretty good I'd say. It also includes the tasks that the racers did not too long ago, that are still getting validated and trickling in.

What would be a good game plan. I was reading that each task has to be validated by more than one system, so how long does that take, for that same task to get sent and crunched by another system and each one validate. If someone errors or aborts, it could take a while to get 2 tasks valid for each participant to get credit. May not be worth holding the bunkers back, if anyone is.

3min until the first update with Einstein!

 

[TennesseeTony]

A quick count for me, from today's upload, 2300 valid, 1920 pending. 3465 points each=14,622,300.

 

[iwajabitw]

And we are running 3rd it looks like for the first update with 80. That pushed up to 7th overall!

 

[TennesseeTony]

Ha ha. We jumped to 7th in the overall, and are in third place for Einstein.

EDIT: Wow, you beat me by two whole minutes. Embarassed to have posted it now.

 

[TennesseeTony]

I assure you this is something other teams dream about, being in the midst of this crowd. Sure, it won't last, but....that's why I took a picture!

 

[Ken g6]

And because of the way I bunkered, there's almost nothing of mine in there. It's going to take a day to complete my suspended work.

I think it'd be awesome if you guys took second! SUSA will have to settle for third.

 

[GLeeM]

LHC is hard to bunker (for me). I can only do sixtrack (downloads on others would use up bandwidth for the month). It will only give me 105 tasks of which looks like 90+ will only take two minutes and be worth 1 point!!

 

[TennesseeTony]

I don't know why the tasks are so ridiculously short (sixtrack), they used to take hours.The LHC VM's have gobbled up my 80GB hard drives in most of the fleet.Those in my fleet with sufficient hard drive space, are limited to 16GB per CPU. LHC is NOT going to be my strong suite either.

In other news, look at OCN go! Daaaaaannnng!

I can't find myself anywhere in the stats !

Free-DC and Einstein are slow updating. Sometimes only twice a day. I don't see you on the Einstein site either, are you sure you joined the TeAm.

Oh, crap, how do I do that ? I never saw a prompt

Should be on the right side of the screen in a box. Says team. You should be able to click Join Team and find us in the search box.

Edit: On your account page, sorry I left that out.

 

[TennesseeTony]

Go here. If you are signed in, I think it will be like iwajabitw says.

I am assuming it is as in this pic, it's been forever since I signed up.

This is all I see:

Start clicking. Got to be there somewhere.

Profile/credentials/preferences....just stay in ACCOUNT and you are bound to find it.
