Message 56365 - Posted: 30 Jan 2016, 1:59:36 UTC

Good evening(my time)I was just wondering if beta testing is over and I can switch back to main even though I am still getting beta wu's my dual core is still getting 8.04's and my daily driver is still getting beta gpu's If testing is still in progress not a problem but the only gpu's not on main now are the 8.06 opencl ones. one more thing has anybody else noticed that the v8 app for android seems to be running faster than v7 did it definitely seems faster on my phone(LG G4 3 cores in use) Thanks for any info.

Started using iGPU app on linux 4.1 with Beignet 1.1.0 driver on Haswell GT2. Got some message on the start of every new wu :

drm_intel_gem_bo_context_exec() failed: Invalid argument

Any ideas ? Wus are valid so far.

There will be another OpenCL NV build available soon that needs testing. So please leave at least part of NV resources here for awhile

Ristmer can you announce when you release that new build.

I would like to bring some computers back over to test those apps.

Thanks

I will be happy to help when the new build is ready I have been getting some nice ap 7.10 runs lately(which has not happened in a while) so I have had my gpu running those but when the new one is ready I will put my gpu back on beta. Thanks for the heads-up.

Yes. In offline benchmarks I saw so far it looked quite promising. At least faster than usual OpenCL NV. Would be interesting how it compares with others.
Also, for some ARs CPU usage drops considerably versus usual OpenCL NV CPU consumption.

Yes I was seeing CPU usage down as low as 8-9% CPU per work unit.

Completion in 3 minute 35 sec on most

What does the acronym SOG stand for?

Signals on GPU.

It means spikes, autocorrs and gaussians are stored completely on GPU now and retrieved only on checkpoints. Much less synching for some ARs and hence much less issues with NV's realisation of that synching in their OpenCL runtime.
And perhaps better GPU usage after all.

Is this available on beta yet or is it coming soon I will be glad to help as usual whatever helps the project move forward.
