I can't see a way to tell how many ARP WUs I've completed, but it's a fair amount. Have a look at https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/viewMyMemberPage.do You are right, lavaflow, and come to think of it, wcgstats can do that, too: $ wcgstats -x | cut -f 3(science -=- runtime -=- points -=- results) $ wcgstats -xc | cut -f 3By extracting those data daily (with crontab), you can follow your performance per science: $ wcgstats -xc | cut -f 1,3,5 |

@Aurum420
...I wonder how many quorum one results I returned that happened to have data in that area but no obvious error resulted... Wouldn't they be listed as Invalids on Results Status? E.g., https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/viewBoi...By=sentTime&pageNum=1It appears I wasn't clear enough in what I wrote - I was talking about returning a result that didn't have a wingman (because of my "trusted machine" status) but which didn't have something so obviously wrong with what it returned that it failed the various validation processes in some way (e.g. out of range or ill-formatted results, perhaps? Those do get marked invalid!!!) As it wouldn't have returned a runtime error status or appear to be invalid how could it be flagged as invalid??? Hopefully we are now clear about what I was getting at??? Cheers - Al. P.S. there are projects out there that use wingmen but allow [relatively] small differences in returned results to still constitute success - SETI@Home was one example of that! |

Due to some changes inside the WCG website Results Status pages I had to update wcgstats). If you're using the program, you can download the new version (same URL), let's say to /tmp as follows:
wget -P /tmp https://a3a3.home.xs4all.nl/wcg/wcgstatsand then, if your 'old' version is ~/bin/wcgstats, run this next: bash ~/bin/wcgstats -U /tmp/wcgstats |

The default API pull is something like 25, and if you give it a 0, it will pull all, even if over the maximum per call which used to be something like 250.

Hello!
----------------------------------------Tasks are BIG. With checkpoints every 12.5% only - why so rare? If computers are non 24/7 running, this results significant looses of CPU time. Example. An average CPU is working 8 hours/day - approx. 2 hours are lost, if yesterday this computer was turned off near to checkpoint. And this repeats every day! This is too much...

Don't shut down, just hibernate and there's no problem.

Checkpoints simply cannot be modified. It is a software limitation. Either hibernate/suspend or choose other projects.

Good idea (for mobile devices) - thank You, Swede & Falconet.
----------------------------------------Which software limitations You are talking about? Raising up checkpoint amount, for example, twice would raise disk space required for temporary files at unacceptable level? Something from such opera?

Raising up checkpoint amount, for example, twice would raise disk space required for temporary files at unacceptable level? Something from such opera? It's just the way it works, I believe it has to do with the simulations themselves. It simply cannot be changed.
