PS: The current so-called spot price at Amazon EC2 would be about 1/3rd of that. (Downsides of spot pricing: AWS may change the price every hour. Availability of spot instances may be limited. A spot instance may be shut down by AWS at any time; you either have to bet on the task being finished before such an event, or deal with shutdown and restore of the VM.) Still pretty expensive.Here is a comparison between AWS EC2 prices (regular rates, not spot prices) [...]
- An AWS p3.2xlarge instance (one Tesla V100) costs $3.823 per hour in region "EU (Frankfurt)". This is ~$13 per GFN21 task. Note, I never dealt with cloud computing, and didn't browse the AWS pages much, so I may have missed something important in this quick "research".
Folding wise, I think you know how motivated I am, with my power bill at a all time high, and that was only a week of the bill at full power. Next month could be $700LOL. Thought I'd go ahead and give my Christmas present to Howdy, but some weird s*** has occurred.
I am officially OUT of this race, it is typically a 3 day long Sieve event, not 10 days, so....I think I've given enough, now back to Folding. Enjoy catching up and passing me, my only goal is to 1.) contribute to a TeAm effort and 2.) beat Michael Goetz for the year. If a mod isn't as motivated as I am, I'll only be a BIT more motivated than they are.
At least... 120 M points?
PS,
during the last two days it almost seemed as if Crunching@EVGA fell into a hurry for some reason; not sure why...

The upcoming holidays will be doubly enjoyable, with this grueling race finally over and done with.Hellooooo everyone, Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
Yes. Take it as creative writing... (actually, just bad writing in non-native language)."Fell into a hurry", never heard that expression before. It means picked up the pace?
I hate to agree with you, but I do. Just three or four WUs left.The upcoming holidays will be doubly enjoyable, with this grueling race finally over and done with.
And this to everyone on the TeAm, and to all the other teams too.Hellooooo everyone, Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
I suppose all these WUs are now lost in the cloud, waiting to time out.If AMD is bunkering, they're still bunkering.
I was just looking at next year's challenge series. No race is shorter than 5 days.Just so happens to coincide with the max number of days I will spend (all out) on any future PG race as well.
