[QUOTE=Brian-E;360137]Already? 20 hours?? You guys with these modern machines make me nervous. I do DCs one at a time on my single 6-year-old PC and spend 2-3 months on each one![/QUOTE]
If you read carefully, it was already triple checked to 19M, so only about 11M iterations left, which is about 8 hours for this range, the whole run is like 23-30 hours or so, depending of the exponent (29-37M).

When I reported it, I didn't see it is a mismatch, I sent it with few other results together and only checked partially, but after I saw the mismatch I started a triple-check. I always do that, usually [U]before[/U] reporting the DC (to keep the exponent in the gpu72 pool, otherwise it may get assigned to somebody else). This time I started the triple check and I expected/hoped my result to be correct, and the initial residue to be wrong, this happened in the past more that the other way around. Well, this time I was wrong. And yes, the request to Chris was a bit childish too... As it turned out, the exponent is now DC-ed, but still hanging on Gimps Visualization. Some user might get is assigned, and waste GPU time with it. The comment about Kracker was a joke, and I know he is taking it as a joke.

I went through your post with a fine tooth comb, mate.:smile:
And you were attributing the 20 hours' unnecessary work to Kracker who, I had assumed, would not have thought to contact you for any save file you may have produced at 19M. Then again, I'm always open to surprises...:rolleyes:

Maybe through the wrong post. See one post before that one in which I was trying to fry the poor man.. There were two posts in a row (and if you want to suggest that I am replying to myself, well,... you may be totally right, I am getting a little bit dumber with the age, but don't tell anyone :smile:)

Anyhow, we move on now...

Shameless self-promotion plug...
 

Hey All.

Please forgive me for going completely tangential, and a bit of self-promotion...

But I thought some of you might be interested in knowing why I've been so busy lately... a new company I'm helping to form here in Barbados: [URL="http://www.forresearch.com/"]For Research Inc.[/URL].

And if anyone wants us to help design and analyse a medical study, please let me know.... :wink:

Congrats!

I would think twice before publishing this:

We're passionate about data.
About knowing what data are out there.
About understanding the quality of these data.

What can we do to help?

What are the areas of interest and what types of data would the group prefer?

Just lost my watercooled system due to a leak. Have to wait until Saturday to see if it can be salvaged. If anything is broken, it will take time to get fixed, so -~1400 GHzDays/Day until it comes back up (if ever) :no:

Oh, heck!

Sorry to hear about this Jerry, and thanks for the heads-up.

That kind of firepower is not easily compensated for.
