2019 Tour de Primes

[chooka03]

Hmmm thanks guys. I am referring to the PPSE work units.
My config file looks like this and I have BOINC set to 50% CPU usage just as they suggested on the Primegrid website.

<app_config>
   <app>
      <name>llrPPSE</name>
      <fraction_done_exact/>
      <report_results_immediately/>
   </app>
   <app_version>
       <app_name>llrPPSE</app_name>
       <cmdline>-t 5</cmdline>
       <avg_ncpus>5</avg_ncpus>
   </app_version>
</app_config>

I have >5< which runs 3 WU's across 15 cores so you might be onto something there Dingo.
I've noticed my PPSE run times are about 800+ seconds which seems a bit slow.
Maybe I just need to stop worrying about it.

Thx for the advice guys

Thx guys.

I'm still trying to work out the best app_config to have. I don't think >16< and running 1 x WU is the best option. Sure it will finish fast but I'll have a lower throughput.
I've been using >5< to run 3 x wu's but now I might try >4< to run 4 wu's.

No idea which is the right one though lol. Seems like a trade off, throughput vs speed.

Oh Prime, where thou art Prime.

I eagerly await for you everyday, please come home to me.

Number 2 is so lonely, he wants to meet Number 3.

Hahahahahahaha

Knew you would mate....it is indeed great news and you deserve it....patience paid off    +1

I have switched over my main to PPS and GFN 17 MEGA now, hoping for a bigger prime (emphasis on the hope) haha

[chooka03]

Oh how depressing....I've been the double checker for the 3rd time.... this time to Scott Brown 
Oh well. I think he has things pretty fine tuned.

Likewise Magpie. I'm happy that I got the P badge. I've thrown MEGA into the mix also.

Well done chooka you did it!!      It must be a great relief to finally have a P.. 

[chooka03]

LOL Jugnut...it is mate! 

Kinda looking for an M now 

[Dingo]

I am going away in the morning so my main Ryzen machine with the 1080Ti will be off for a week.  I am hoping to get at least one more Prime before the end of the month and I have four dedicated Linux servers running at 100% while I am away and I will run my old laptop when I get to where I am staying for the week.

[chooka03]

Safe journey Dingo 

[Mike Mitchell]

Have a good break Dingo.

[chooka03]

WOW...... I see a 2070 doing GFN-16's in 62 seconds 

Must look up what a 2080Ti does!
