Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

well I'm gonna suspend some of mine until the techs weigh in. I don't want to waste any more time on the acidic wus.
Has anyone had a successful completion of one of these recent ts05 "A" types?

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

There were some successful type A from the first two batches I sent last Friday. The work units that people have now, have not been running long enough to start showing the valids that come back. Generally we see the errors before the success results. This is due to most errors stopping the work unit within minutes of starting. Compared to a success result taking hours to run to completion.

Thanks. That makes sense. FWIW, mine did run many hours though before erroring- 6 and 16 hours.

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

Linguistically "some successful type A from the first two batches" is no promising reading.

Most? Few Minutes? The ps are expected to run 35-67 hours on my crawlers. Few minutes I [and most] can live with... respectively 9 and 11.75 hours going south I have a hard time with, particularly if it does when I'm no where near the machines doing shut eye. Power is very expensive here, very, so the 4 remaining I'm controlling to run 1 by 1, leaving the other cores to keep returning guaranteed valid results within the RR criteria.

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

It sounds like we are running Beta testing using live data. Not a good thing to be doing.

It's typical of Science though. If we knew all the answers, there would be no need to do the experiments!
Errors are still data- we've just discovered one more thing that doesn't work. wink

Re: It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!

In many ways this project is an entire Beta project:
    Each round requires new types of task to be created - but they cant be put through a separate full Beta testing first, as there are not that many tasks and it would slow the project down to much.
    It is about as intermittent as WCG Beta testing.
    Success and failure rates also sound similar to that of Beta tests.

I agree with you - after all, we're all, in our own little ways, helping to push the boundaries of science along, and frustrating as it may be, sometimes we do need to go 2 steps forward and 1 back so as to find the proper route forward.
