1) Message boards : Number crunching : WUs names - are there different types of WUs? (Message 743) Posted 22 Feb 2018 by Hotbit Post: Hello, WU names are in the format: amicable_10_20_20198_1519206302.310434_177 What the third number, 20198 in the above example, is used for? Do these numbers distinguish WU types (are there different types of WUs?), are just batch numbers or something else? Thanks you.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Drop in WU size? (Message 728) Posted 6 Feb 2018 by Hotbit Post: Interesting information. As WUs are run on GPUs - is it possible to calibrate them for GPUs rather than CPUs?
3) Message boards : Number crunching : Interesting distribution of numbers - my discoveries stopped. (Message 656) Posted 7 Nov 2017 by Hotbit Post: In September I've been discovering several amicable numbers each day. I've noticed that since mid October or so counter stopped almost completely. In November I haven't found even one pair I think, while going through ~40 WU each day... Quite interesting.
4) Message boards : Bug tracker : Total number of tasks falls (Message 623) Posted 13 Sep 2017 by Hotbit Post: Not sure whether there is some bug or just I don't understand something. I've joined this project 2 weeks ago. In general, a number for 'All tasks' is growing https://sech.me/boinc/Amicable/results.php?userid=4038, but sometimes drops. Just a few minutes ago All = 248. A new task was finished and uploaded and All = 247. How does it work?
