Testing is complete, the new app is live!
New features:
-AMD Navi GPU supported
-CPU multi-threading supported (up to 64 threads) using PrimeGrid preferences web page settings like LLR
-AVX512dq supported
-GPU app should be about 5% faster overall
Improvements came from the upcoming (hopefully?) Wieferich/WallSunSun search apps i've been working on. |

Very nice !
Thanks !

Awesome!! Finally my AP badge gets a boost. My GPU hasn't been able to run AP for a long time.

The speedup is nice to see, but my machine (273226) is dang near unusable when it's running. Sure, it was a little choppy before when doing anything graphical (videos, transitions), but now it's a slideshow just moving my mouse across the empty desktop. When I first encountered it, I thought the system had crashed.
Is there any way to help mitigate this aside from the no bueno "suspend when active" setting? Something like the Bn settings in other apps? (just updated the drivers to latest and now the mouse is smooth, but that's it.)

Awesome thank you. I was one of the mad ones who has been doing it on CPU! |

Yep same! My laptop has the same problems as what Grebuloner had described.

Yes, unless you're running tasks under app_info.xml. If you're using app_info.xml, you're in charge of downloading all of the applications, but very few people have reason to do that. For most people it's automatic.
Note that this only applies to app_info.xml and does not apply to the much more common app_config.xml.

I am running with app_config because I have multi GPUs and I need the app_config to regulate which jobs are running on them. What is the call out for the new app for app_config? |

Nothing changed for GPU apps, your old app_config.xml should work without changes.
For those who used app_config or app_info for CPU applications (although I doubt that anybody had a reason to do so), note that plan class has been changed from cpu_AP27 to cpu_AP27mt. |

Thanks,
I missed the CPU callout before.

My PC crash/shut down with an Video Error, after a few seconds with an AP27 Search v2.08 (opencl_ati_AP27). ...again and again.

I see it supports AVX-512. What about regular AVX and AVX2?

AVX and AVX2 were always supported by AP27. The new app adds AVX512 support.

I cannot see the stderr.txt of the task at this time "suppressed pending completion" to get an idea of what may be causing this. |

The mouse gets very slow and the PC is not usable and 5 seconds later, an error message pop up and Win 10 make a controllt shut down and do a restart.
Here the stderr output for the 3 WUs:

I am wondering if it may help by running memtest86?

Sorry to interrupt on the problem-solving, but the new AP app with MT is fantastic! Estimated time on CPU with 4 threads is half that of on my integrated GPU! (8CU APU)

This specific task failed on all GPUs. We're working on the fix.
You did it successfully on CPU.

Yea.
Was there an algoritm problem or was this just like one of those "edge" cases where LLR's maxerr>0.4?

It was a bug I introduced with the new app. A lot of things were changed in the new OCL app. A fix is on the way. |

*checks list, sees own computer* Oh, dang!
The new app takes advantage of a NVIDIA feature that's been around for a few years called Compute Preemption. Using a Pascal or newer GPU under Windows 10 RS4 (April 2018), software developers no longer have to worry about kernel runtime being too long causing sluggish screen updates. The screen takes priority over the kernel. Before this, developers had to pick a small enough kernel work size for each different gpu encountered, and hope that screen refresh would be OK. That small work size can lead to inefficient utilization of modern GPUs with lots of compute units.
This is interesting. Actually explains why I've never had a stuttering problem with the old app on my Win 10 boxes which always made me curious (as some of them have hand me down GPUs from my Win 7 system and did stutter back then). Sad that it can't be fixed, though. At least this machine is (hopefully) in its last days of primary use if Intel can ship me the CPU for my new main rig.

When fixing the bug that caused that workunit to fail, I also made a change to the app for better display response on AMD or Win7 systems. |

But I have a question: PG says the app is v2.08, but the app says v3.0.
The problem has been existing before: PG v2.06, app v2.6
What's up with the naming?

PG naming means nothing. It's just a unique number identifying a set of programs and additional input and control files on server. Sometimes we name application same as or close to version of the main program, sometimes they're just sequentially incremented, sometimes these numbers refer to different internal procedures although main program itself is (almost) the same, like LLR apps 6.xx, 7.xx and 8.xx. There is no single rule.

An updated GPU app has been published. Version number has been bumped to 2.09 for all platforms (although CPU app is really unchanged).
- Fixed crash of GPU application on some specific tests/sequences;
- Screen responsibility should be improved (less lag) if you're using either AMD card either Windows 7/8. It has been not tested much on all possible combinations, so please report your feelings here.
Known issues:
- AMD drivers are buggy, often they cannot handle complex computing kernels like used this application. If something is not working on AMD card, you may post reports here but most probably it'll be a driver's problem. OpenCL driver is a very complex thing - really, it's a true compiler from C language to video chip machine code. Lot of bugs can be hidden there - driver may fail to compile syntactically correct source code, may compile it but generate incorrect video chip machine code, etc.

Why is Stderr output as to what's being tested suppressed in the new version?
I always like to see the detail for example :-
Stderr output
