People always say how "high temps shorten your CPU lifespan" etc. blah blah.
Does anyone have any actual hard proof, facts, datapoints, etc. that show it actually does, or by how much?
Or is it like saying "I lost $100,000..." but you ask how much money they have and it's "$300 Million" So in the grand scheme it's like yes, you technically lost some money but it's insignificant.
Just curious.

hushed bobcat Mar 28, 2020, 4:26 AM

#

but this morning i saw someone with 96 threads on a slot

storm talon Mar 28, 2020, 4:27 AM

#

Consistent high temps can cause catastrophic failure. Home CPU's are not designed for sustained loads. So the arguement is kinda left hand right hand

#

a server can run balls out 24/7 at full 100% utilization no problem. not so much for a gaming pc

But I guess my point is that, people FREAK OUT on the forums, etc. when things run at like 80, 90, 100...and I'm just saying, I did for months and months...so maybe the whole "your CPU will fry so quickly" is a bit overexaggerated? I dunno

There is no doubt that it'll, on paper, exponentially reduce your CPU's lifespan

we're using it for basically the same reason on our clusters at the offices

Yeah, it I have the window open and it's sucking in air straight from the window, venting into the rest of my apartment which is about 500 sqft for that section

#

cubic is probably like 4,500-5,000 cubic feet

Full tilt, making less than before mainly cause of my 2070 not performing like it should

Colorado is not very humid most of the time, so it's no biggie

sometimes i could get 500 MHz, sometimes none at all

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 4:55 AM

what's your folding power set on 🤔

#

maybe setting it on medium will do?

hollow ember Mar 28, 2020, 12:16 PM

I heard if you set it to medium it would, but honestly I couldn’t get it to “go idle” even at medium.

it was sending out units last night. I got one. But our guess it that the 1st 2 batches of WUs where tests to make sure it could send and receive units. before it starts doing it in mass.

Was gonna say, if you split up your CPU into smaller 4-thread chunks it should get more WUs

📎 unknown.png

odd barn Mar 28, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

I'm not sure how to do that... Is there a tutorial

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

Advanced Control > Configure > Slots. Then you can add/remove slots and adjust as needed

odd barn Mar 28, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

Do I just keep adding slots until it shows 8 CPU slots?

#

and keep the number there as -1?

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

But since you have a 6700 I would restrict it to 6 threads and just keep one

#

You should leave 1 core open for your GPU, 2 threads if you have HT/SMT

#

You could also try 2 3-thread slots, but I'm not sure

#

Not even noon and I'm already at 520k. Today is gonna be a good production day. Hopefully I can finally hit over 1m in a day.

supple laurel Mar 28, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

@vague flint This might just be me. but by splitting your CPU in to muti groups instead of just 1 your just hitting a already overwhelmed server more times and your not helping anything go faster.

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

@supple laurel as far as I can tell, there's only one process that looks for work from your client. Splitting it down may increase the total amount of requests that it does for work, but it also increases the chance of you getting a WU and the amount of work you do overall

#

At least for me, it seemed to spend far less time working when I had it at 28 threads, so that's more time it's just sitting there pinging

#

At the end of the day, the request is likely no bigger than a couple KB and the response isn't a full web app or web page, so DDOSing the servers shouldn't really be possible.

supple laurel Mar 28, 2020, 4:52 PM

#

even if it is only a few KB, they went from 30k users to over 400k and that was before linus and steve and paul did the videos. that in itself is a basicly a DDOS.

hushed bobcat Mar 28, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

Personally I don't think you need to split up CPU threads unless you have more than 8

solid thunder Mar 28, 2020, 4:56 PM

#

we're up to 4th on EO? wow

storm talon Mar 28, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

yup

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 4:57 PM

#

I mean, it still wouldn't make a difference IMO.

Again, it seems to only use a single thread/process to ping the servers. So even if 7/8 slots get work, that 8th slot still has the same attempt rate from previous slots that will increase on each attempt.

wooden charm Mar 28, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

What it looks like there is comming some WU for larger CPU soon

#

16core +

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 4:58 PM

#

The reason I cut it down so much is because 3/4 thread slots seem to be getting the most work. Overall my production has been much higher once I cut it down.

storm talon Mar 28, 2020, 4:59 PM

#

^

supple laurel Mar 28, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

it's more about the servers not getting pinged so much and overwhelming them and causing them to crash.

storm talon Mar 28, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

I had 16 core vm's sitting idle, once I split them into quads they're all utilized

wooden charm Mar 28, 2020, 5:00 PM

wooden charm Mar 28, 2020, 5:03 PM

you can also split in the folding gui

#

and config for that matter

#

our 256 core is rigth now splitted in to alot of 4 core slots

storm talon Mar 28, 2020, 5:05 PM

#

yea i found it more efficient to run quad core vm's

#

and clone em in esxi

wooden charm Mar 28, 2020, 5:07 PM

#

ahh! i like to just split in config, i have a SALT script for setting up and deplying configs 🙂

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

Again, you're still gonna be pinging the server about the same amount. Maybe slightly more, but it's not going to be so extravagant that it'll take down the system

#

If DDOSing was really an issue, they would say something

storm talon Mar 28, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

you aren't pinging the server constantly during your WU though

#

just start and end

wooden charm Mar 28, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

DDOS is not the problem, is creating the WU's that is not keeping up

supple laurel Mar 28, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

no it's not. if creating them was the problem the servers would not be going down all the time

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 5:17 PM

#

Is there a reason the servers are going down? It's been happening constantly for two weeks and they haven't said a thing about it

#

I haven't seen a single server stay online for more than a couple days

mystic hollow Mar 28, 2020, 5:18 PM

#

@vague flint amount of people

supple laurel Mar 28, 2020, 5:18 PM

the sure amount of people pingging the server for work is making them crash

#

Ye, its the group are looking in to move to a virtualised system that can expand more easy

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 5:20 PM

#

And even then, that quote doesn't acknowledge any issue about clients pinging too much or recommendations on how to configure hardware.

#

I'm getting more WUs and PPD with smaller slots. I'm gonna keep it that way unless they say it's a problem.

wooden charm Mar 28, 2020, 5:21 PM

its fine DarkSwordman 🙂

#

you can do small slots or big one

mystic hollow Mar 28, 2020, 5:21 PM

i divided my 3900x into 4+4+6+8 cores, leaving 2 cores for the GPU and system. will see if i complete more jobs that way

supple laurel Mar 28, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

i get reseting the timer when it gets up in to the hours. but spliting cores alway the way down to 1-2 making it ping more and more is making more of a problems. i get if you have 20+ server type cores want want to make it a little smaller but a 6 core just let it work....

mystic hollow Mar 28, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

so far it seems like that with default 22 core setup i was getting 1-3 WU's per day

wooden charm Mar 28, 2020, 5:21 PM

there is alot of diffrent WU beeing created

storm talon Mar 28, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

I did 40wu's in the last 10 hours

vague flint Mar 28, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

@supple laurel it uses one process. Going from 1 to 8 slots will not 8x the pings

#

It uses one process to ping for work

#

It'll be the same attempt interval

wooden charm Mar 28, 2020, 5:22 PM

@wooden charm will see, i can always drop it to 4 cores or whatever

It might ping 1.2x-2x longer, but it'll still scale the attempt interval the same as if I had one big 28 thread slot waiting for days for a WU.

Yeah. It's a global ping for your client. Same process across GPU and CPU slots.

If you click between them, they all reference the same "Downloading" WU that says "WS Assignment"

when you get 10 WU done a Quick Return Bonus (QRB) is applied

that usually boosts your numbers

hushed bobcat Mar 28, 2020, 6:31 PM

At 100% I was hovering at 80C, but my PC sounded like a jet

@smoky wing set it to two core or so, less heat, still helping 🙂
