Posted 8 Jan 2022 by Tern Post: Bump - and the preferences page should also "match" the app names. (Or put them to the side, SOMETHING!) If I want to stop running "16e Lattice Sieve V5" I shouldn't have to dig in the forums to find out which "thing" I need to turn off in preferences. |

Posted 13 Sep 2019 by Tern Post: Bump. At LEAST in the prefs page, beside the cryptic app name, put "16e" or SOMETHING! Every single time I want to change prefs, I have to search through the boards to remember which app is which "app". |

RAM, runtime and credits

Posted 1 Aug 2019 by Tern Post: New to this project but long time BOINC... VERY confused by the credits. Results from one host: 14e - 4,945 seconds, 36 credits 15e - 7,243 seconds, 44 credits 16e - 4,956 seconds, 130 credits This is seriously broken... I have no major problem with the 14 being "low" or the 16 being "high" at around the same execution times (given you're trying to get people to do 16), but the 15 is absurd. 50% more work for the lower-end credit? At the very least, it should be >130, or maybe 100 if you REALLY want people to only do 16. I've also had RAM limit issues, but (having read the forum before signing up) I expected those, and can compensate. |
