![]() ![]() Total CPU Threads / Total GPU WU = cpu_usage The default value is 1, but if you want to run more GPU WU than you have CPU cores edit it accordingly. cpu_usage: This specifies the % use of CPU threads per GPU WU.Set this according to how many WU you want to run per GPU. gpu_usage: This specifies the % use of the GPU per WU.Best to set this to the number of total HCC1 WU your computer will be doing at a time. ![]() max_concurrent: This specifies the maximum number of WU the app can run at a time.Edit the following according to your setup:.This is achieved by creating a file called app_config.xml to detail how to use your hardwareīefore creating the app_config.xml file you will need: This can increase the output of both your PPD (point per day) and the runtime per day. This guide will show you how to get better performance from your GPU by running more than 1 WU at a time. This is much simpler, with no AMD/NVIDIA specific code and avoids a lot of issues we encountered in the pastīy default World Community Grid is setup to run a single GPU WU on your machine. Please check the prerequisites list below and use the new setup guide. Users of app_info.xml method: This method will not be supported by WCG in the future.It is not recommended to use HT for PRP/LLR, only for factoring on CPU.DISCLAIMER: Use this at your own risk! It is entirely down to each user to update as needed! Prime95 will always force you to not run all threads on your cores for better performance even when you set it on local.txt file. Message 6916 - Posted:, 16:58:16 UTC - in response to Message 6915. I'm still looking for a means of getting SRBase to use my GPU without (significantly) interfering with Prime95. HWInfo shows my GPU utilization at 100% (though Task Manager seems to think the GPU is idle). I tried giving BOINC just 1 thread and 1% of available CPU time and I tried giving it all 8 threads and 100% of CPU time processor utilization varies, but rarely approaches the over 90% it does running Prime95 alone. ![]() I get how due to the vagaries of Windows, giving Prime95 a priority of 10 doesn't result in it getting any more cycles, but none of the available settings in Prime95 or BOINC seem to alter the fact that Prime95 won't utilize more than half of available processor time if BOINC is running. I spoke too soon - in Windows Task Manager, it appears that Prime95 never exceeds ~48% CPU usage if BOINC is running. Message 6915 - Posted:, 16:52:16 UTC - in response to Message 6909. I haven't rebooted - I'll try that and edit this or report back if computation switched to my GPU.Ĭheck also in BOINC client the prefs, Use GPU while computer is in use, also check the event log if your GPU is recognized. Having done so (and completed several work units since), should SRBase now detect my GPU and switch computation to it automatically, or do I need to do something else? My CPU is at full capacity and my GPU is idle. "TF"? There is a telegraphic reference to a path with regards to OpenCL - all I've done is install and run this project under BOINC, then install AMD's SDK 3.0 (from Softpedia, AMD reportedly having withdrawn it) while it was running. Those radio buttons (ATI and Nvidia) were already checked in the project's preferences when I looked. Message 6905 - Posted:, 7:05:32 UTC - in response to Message 6904. ![]()
