Exactly 13 hours and already 2.8GB, and a big portion gets moved to virtual memory, not to be confused with Virtual Machine which I may have caused to be understood.

Yes.
---------------------------------------- Well ... with another Firefox with many open tabs and many other open programs (Boinc Manager, an antivirus, music, VPN, torrent, DLNA running a transmission ...), I use 10.3GB of 15.7GB. I still have a lot of memory.   |

Google Colab, this has a couple of things to it, but it's fun basically adding 10 cores to my 4C/8T Ryzen PC :)

I've succeeded continuing from the last checkpoint on Colab lately, thanks to the help of zolople. It needs some babysitting, twice a day, doesn't it?
---------------------------------------- Haven't tried more than 2 notebooks yet, let alone 5.  [Edit 1 times, last edit by adriverhoef at Aug 6, 2020 11:14:17 PM] |

Five works well but every now and then, regardless of how many are opened, it becomes "busy". Right now, I have 3 notebooks running and 2 notebooks on busy status.
----------------------------------------Still, it does good work! Thanks for the tip, zolople! AMD Ryzen 5 1600AF 6C/12T 3.2 GHz - 85W AMD Ryzen 5 2500U 4C/8T 2.0 GHz - 28W AMD Ryzen 7 7730U 8C/16T 3.0 GHz [Edit 1 times, last edit by Mosqueteiro at Aug 7, 2020 11:26:05 AM] |

You can have up to five notebooks per google account, but the resource limit is reached very quickly and they stop. It is better to have only one or two note books per account. Up to ten accounts can be open in a single browser.

Finally ran out of free credit at GCP.
----------------------------------------Looks like I returned about 22,000 results. Mostly SCC, OPN1 and MCM. Several years of computing. It only lasted this long because of pre-emptive instances.

I find that running ARP1 can cause BOINC client on Google Colab to create new cross-project ID. So I end up disabling requesting it.

Zolople's Google Colab script and idea works really well with GPU's.
----------------------------------------I easily get 12 hours a day of GPU computing at Einstein@home, running one session on each of my 3 Google Accounts. After the 12 hours or close to that, when I restart each session at night, it usually lasts only a few minutes. Colab offers 4 different Nvidia cards: Nvidia P4 (the slowest, I think) Nvidia K80 Nvidia T4 Nvidia Tesla P100 (the most powerful, runs an Einstein@home FGRPB1G task in 550 seconds or so) They should do well on OPN1 once the GPU application launches, hopefully with both CUDA and OpenCL support.
