Brief surge of DCTF to 72.
 

Just so everyone knows, we need a little bit of a surge in DCTF to 72 in order to satisfy the churners with a bit of a buffer.

Anyone so inclined are asked to take some candidates from 71 bits to 72. Preferably from the lowest exponent.

Not yet critical, but welcomed.

How many exponents a day do we need?

For a steady state, about 40.

I've grabbed 616 that should be finished in the next five days or so.

I can do 42 per day.....so if Mark provides the buffer I can take it from there and provide the 40 required for steady state.

Coolness. Thanks guys. :smile:

Can "Let GPU72 decide" take care of this?

[QUOTE=Chuck;403102]Can "Let GPU72 decide" take care of this?[/QUOTE]

Generally "LGPU72D" doesn't change the worktype.

However, if you (or anyone willing) give me explicit permission (either publicly here or privately via PM) it can be done.

If it's an easy thing to do on your end, you have my permission to change what "LG72D" gives me.

EDIT: I should clarify that I mean this as a blanket statement as opposed to specifically for this event (since it appears to already have been dealt with).

Do it.

I think we discussed this once: people who want to keep their work type chose "what makes sense", people who don't, chose "let gpu72 decide". That is why we had two in the beginning. Or we can talk Scott into adding a "I don't care" work type to Misfit. In fact, what is the [U]actual, practical[/U], (as opposed to theoretical) difference between WMS and LGPU72D? (on the server side, i.e. what the server does for any of the requests?). We used to discuss this in the past and it was somehow established, at a time when I was caring about. I don't especially care now, because I am "picky" with my choices, each is particularly done to suit the card is fetching for. But it would be nice to be stated again.

Edit: on the bright side, I will bring back about 900-950GHzD/D to LLTF/DCTF/Whatever, immediately after I get rid of Madpoo's triple checks in 24M (about 110 from 119 assignments done already, so this is 2-3 days left). On the dark side my Titan let the magic smoke out today. It was DC-ing Manfred's assignment in 332M (we did it in parallel to check the residues, and coordinate on the PM on this forum). It was close to 150M iterations (we had a match to 145M, he is a bit more advanced, as he is the assignee, I periodically had to stop and switch to other job, to let him lead the way). Now, I will have to look for some power IC which exploded (that is Q16 and L12 coil, for who knows the PCB layout of the EVGA Titan classical design).
