[QUOTE=Aramis Wyler;553980]I don't know if something is wrong with the colab hookup, [/QUOTE]

And I don't know if it is related to your problem, but I have had the following phenomenon since 2 days:

[B][SIZE="2"]I can no longer download my gpuowl savefiles to my computer with the Colab File-browser (in Colab File-browser the download progress is only fake displayed).
I work around this by simply downloading the intermediate results via the pull-down menu File-> Search in Google Drive.[/SIZE][/B]

Just making a note here that this appears to have been resolved.

[QUOTE=chalsall;551888]Lastly, for some odd reason, one of the accounts always asks me to prove that I'm not a robot ("Recapta"). Annoying, but I figure my giving Google a bit of computer vision training data isn't a bad trade. And I've trained my own wet neural net to be really good at recognizing Buses, Cross-walks, Bicycles, Stairs and Chimneys... :wink:[/QUOTE]One of 3 of my accounts is suspected of robothood, and you left out at least cars, hills, traffic lights, and motorcycles.

hrmmm
can't get it to work.

It's a problem with the GPU72 site certificate.

I guess this as good a place as any to note that I just started up four notebooks on a paid account. They came in with Tesla V100 GPUs, which are reporting around 3800 GHz-d/d.
:w00t: w00t!
First I've seen of this. The other account which had run for about 12 hours was still on P100s.
$6,909.00 on Amazon.
14-15 min for a 104.9M 74-75
28-30 min for 104.9M 75-76

I just got 1 V100 on 1 of my instances: 4.4 hours for 54M DC compared to 7.1 hours on a P100.


4.4 hours for a 54M exponent is amazing to think about. 33M exponent took me 211 days in 2003, that is several orders of magnitude...

Wow! Sweet!!! :tu:

It will be interesting to see if these are also made available to the free accounts. It always struck me as a bit strange that the paid accounts were never given T4s, while the free accounts were getting them more often than the P100s.

It appears that they draw 300 W.


With regard to chalsall's mention of T4s, they draw 70 or 75 W. In comparison to P100s, they deliver about 50% more for 28% of the power. I wonder what the differences are. T4s don't seem to have the Tesla label. It's just strange to me that they can get so much work for so little power.

I didn't realize until now that I had these V100 GPUs running; that explains the big spike in my GPU72 statistics graph. (I also have four running on a paid account)
