SG BOINC Pentathlon 2022

[Dirk Broer]

You're doing great, Universe@Home lasts for the full 14 days of this event. I'd even say hold them for the next obstacle, if I'd knew exactly when that would be.
If about four hours (? something fishy going on, should be 30 minutes) the 1st obstacle (+200% with Universe!) of the obstacle course ends and the Javelin event (Numberfields@Home) begins.

Sadly I am going to have to purge all the units from the big gun, I managed to get a measly 65 out of 1009 uploaded and reported on that box, and the last core just ran dry. Like you said we have no idea when the next obstacle will be, and all cores sitting idle for more than a day will hurt us more than missing the bonus points. This is what I get for not buffering the full allotment of 36 tasks per thread.

[Dirk Broer]

Idle? You can run Numberfields now and leave the Universe Wu's suspended on your system -that's what I'm doing, as the deadline is thirteen days. And PrimeGrid joins in too in two days.

Universe is responding better today for me but NumberFields is unreachable.

[Dirk Broer]

You managed to push a good scores through their server, nevertheless.
We finished #13 at the first Javelin throw, thanks to our good last hour:

We had an adequate 2nd throw for the Javelin event, but now face three projects at the same time for the 3rd throw, as Universe and PrimeGrid are both still active.
Directly after the third throw the 3-day sprint event will be for SRBase, while the 5-day CityRun event -Einstein@Home- will be from the 14th till the 19th of May.
And the 4th and/or 5th throw might still be needed, according to Jeepers

BOINC.Italy (#8) and AMD Users (#9) are at a similar level, which means that the AMD guys would have to make use of all remaining attempts to pass the Italians.

Remember the good days when GPU projects were limited to one? This year is exhausting (and hot). As far as three projects, it's only two for me, I haven't been able to get work for Universe in nearly four days.

[vaughan]

I managed to get tasks in Universe by setting cache to 2 days and clicking update many many times until I got some downloads. Very tedious - one would expect after so many years of BOINC being in existence that this wouldn't be required in 2022.

Hi guys,

I completely forgot about the pentathlon due to AP testing this year, and I would like to contribute: during testing my computers were fully running WW for PG, so I guess that's a nice coincidence.

For Universe: what subproject should I run for the most credits?

For Javelin: Which of the last two throws are we focusing on?

For SRBase: Should I bunker for Srbase?

For Einstein: What subproject should I run?

Universe = Anything you can get as the server is swamped (DDOS'd)
Numberfields = Similar but server seems OK today.
SRBase = GPU tasks score well
Einstein = GPU, I find the CPU tasks take ages.
