Hi folks, after spending many hours I got this version also compiled successfully in windows. This one is the 64bit version.
SR5 tests looking good with around 50% speed improvement. I dont know other pfgw projects yet but I think its also working with that.
Stay tuned for download. Iam testing one more unit to know the time improvement.
SR5: before/after--->50-60min/30min |

I maintain pfgw and I want to make sure that gwnum v27.x has any kinks worked out before I release a new version with that library. |

Iam testing it and have some little issues with it. One total crash of client, dont know why, and sometimes a pfgw.log file, creating from pfgw.exe or client? Performance boost is now 30-50%.
Yes, I have planned to contact you. I only replaced the older gwnum files + one change in code because of an error. If you want my source files or only the program, send me a PM. |

You can send me the code change that you made.
As for the crash in the client, if it wasn't the known issue in the client that I fixed in 5.0.4, then it would be helpful if you could provide additional information on it. I would also like to know if you could reproduce it. |

With 4 WUs running the time is increasing much higher than expected from 2300-2600s. No more problems seen so far. |

BETA-TEST!
Hi all,
just looking for beta testers with a test client (better 4 cores / tasks / clients running), for speed improvement of SR5, 2xSR5, 2xppselow:
What you need:
- prpnet client 4.3.7, 5.0.2, 5.0.4
- running SR5 and ppselow (pfgw for the prime test)
- a compatible AVX cpu (Sandybridge/Bulldozer)
- win7 sp1 or better
- 64bit only!
Please note to observate the client most of the time during rare crashes.
What can you expected
- app crash
- client crash after app crash (mostly with 5.0.4 client)
- lost work
Pls report crash dumps in this thread (with what client version was running) and speed improvement (before/after).
Thx!

OK will try to help out with exactly your specs..
Q: on SR5 task.. is your pfgw the only .exe to uncomment ??

OK rig setup as follows:
2 CPU-Cores running PPSElow with 'llravx'
2 CPU-Cores running SR5 with your 'pfgw'
1 GPU-Core running GFN-work with 'GeneferCuda'
Client 5.0.4
i7-2600K OC to 3600 (temp 60C)
GTX-560 setting 925/1850/1715 (running 99% GPU , temp 64C) driver 285.62
OS: win7/64 prof SP1
Will let it run now for 48h+
Any more info you need ??

-Client version see my post: 5.0.4
Your 'pfgw.exe' seem to be very fast with SR5 !!!
Let me run it for a time and I will report further.
PPSElow with 'llravx' is terribly fast !!

Thx, I also tested pfgw with ppselow but looks the same timings or slower.
With 2 SR5 only you can get a 45-50% faster calculation :) |

If the app crashed on your test client 5.0.4:
- stop the client
- overwrite pfgw64 with the originally one
- start the client and let the workunit end
After that I only need tests with 4.3.7 client.
Thx

Well the app (SR5) actually did not 'crash'
It stopped with a ^C command which I did not give myself.

My last 5.0.4 test client crashed again but 4.3.7 works fine ^^ |

Please stop testing until I can find the issue with compiler! |

I have tested a compiled version from rogue in same size. It crashed also but took some hours.
Pls testing further on your systems... |

Hello beta-testers,
we have discovered a problem/bug in gwnum code. After some local tests, all SR5 numbers around larger than 260k starting with crash.
Some of gfn-prime-testings with ppselow are also affected.
Please run out your current work and stop!
Thx

Could be the same problem what we see with the llr386(devsrc)_AVX-build on hosts without AVX...

pfgw3.6.0-AVX-32bit
pfgw3.6.0-AVX-64bit
Successful tests of SR5 >260k now without crashing.
Due bandwidth issues only run 2 of 4 cores to get full speed (around 45%)
The new early beta of gwnum 27.3 should also fixed the Bulldozer problem.
Pls test and report! |
|
|
|
Both versions of pfgw 3.6.0 fail on an AMD FX-4100 Bulldozer. |
|
|
|
The new one is a little bit faster:
2 x SR5 = 1500-1700s vs. 1800-2100s
more than 2 decrease speed due cpu cache limits (this not affects the llravx) |
|
|
|
Passed some more tests vs. non avx (gwnum 27.3):
2 x SR5 = ~56% speedup
3 x SR5 = ~47% speedup
4 x SR5 = ~39% speedup
The ivy bridge has 8MB cache, so it can be more profitable than 6MB with Sandy Bridge (bottleneck). It would be great to get all 4 cores running with double output.
If someone has a Sandy Bridge-E (10MB cache) post some results here without HT on. |
|
|
|
wow: pfgw64 avx is faster than llravx on ppselow port (32sec vs 34sec).
pfgw64 (non avx): 55 sec in the same port.
trying sr5 now. |

Nope, the pfgw64avx is always slower than llravx. |

You still need a test run? I've got a 3960X running with 8 out of 12 on GFN Fermet Sieving, but I can put it on hold for a couple of hours to run 4 cores without HT (need to keep the other two going due to other Project committments I have made)
I've run PPSElow before with llravx, let me know changes you need to that setup for a test, and if you still need one doing, I'll get it done.

Nice! Do it fast, the port is empty soon! But need a full core run to see if the speed is slowing down or not ;) |

Its running hot - PCH went to 60 degrees
Fiirst results:

1476.0073s+0.0173s
1284.1522s+0.0174s

If they all got what was set for then will have 10 per core on four cores, want all run for the test ? If so how you want results reported, as above ??

This is a 6 core processor right? If so run 6 x SR5 and report. I have run my i-2500k@4Ghz, runtimes could be the same with higher clock but my temps are @70°C. |

Cant run on 6, no work, only 4 cores managed to grab any.
PCH went back down to 38 (GPU apps finishing off so running cooler), cpu running at 55 (has cpu water cooler), with four cores running

Yes, we must wait for fill up. |

Okie Doke - I'll finish up what I have rather than abandon, and keep an eye open, as soon as I see a refill, I'll come back and do a full run. I'll keep the sieve suspended for now and run GPU apps whilst waiting for refill.
Regards
Zy |

I have run my i-2500k@4Ghz,
When the refill comes in, want me to run @4Ghz as well ?
EDIT:
Refill's in, setting up again, need to finsh off some GPU WUs, will be running in around 15 mins or so circa 2055hrs UTC
EDIT2:
All six cores running, 10WUs on each core

12 results in .... how do you want them reported ... or are you grabbing from the server?

There's around 50 done now, so I'm stopping the run and assuming you are grabbing from the server.
I'm restarting the sieve and GPU app, if you want more done post |

There are some people having problems with Bulldozer and llr so pfgw should also not working. If someone can confirm this pls report here! |

It might work in some circumstances. George had told me days ago that it would fix the issues. In any case, this is an official release which will make some happy. |
