Re: Slow performance Desktop app on Core M processor!

The laptop has integrated graphics (APU). I presume it doesn't find a graphics card for folding. To round up my 3 day test results: HP Stream 11 with Intel Celeron N3060, running Xubuntu: Desktop Client: Avg: 1800PPD NaCl: avg: 2200PPD (a 22% improvement) NaCl running Windows: 2000PPD (an 11% improv...

Re: Unable to fold via Linux

Ok, the issue seems to be resolved.
The Deb package is working fine on Xubuntu 19.10.
GalliumOs uses 16.04 (LTE), and is very old. I guess the deb package only works with more up to date versions of Linux.

Re: Slow performance Desktop app on Core M processor!

Is there nothing that can be done about that super slow first WU?
I mean, 186 PPD, 15 days ETA, it's just ridiculous. Online web client goes much faster (4k PPD, and WU runs as quickly as 30 minutes).

Ok, now it went up to 1500PPD, and 4 days ETA.

Still slower than the Native Client.

Re: Add a pcie 1x card?

Ok, now I'm missing the point. Low power hyperthreading cores perform rather poorly on fah client. Much poorer than a corei3 or i5. Replacing a single 1.6-2Ghz core, with 192 stream processors operating at 954Mhz, looks like a good deal to me! I presume adding just any graphics card, so long it's su...

Re: How often are the team/user stats updated?

While team stats were updated frequently, donor stats were updated for the first time in a week.

Slow performance Desktop app on Core M processor!

I'm having some particular problem trying to get the client to work on my Asus Zenbook, using an Intel Core M-5Y10, 2 cores 4 threads. On the browser, I average at 4500PPD, with some optimization, it does 5k. But in the desktop client, I only get 186PPD. I've tried changing the thread count, but wit...

Re: Add a pcie 1x card?

I know, but I have a Xeon processor, running at 1,6Ghz. The cores are pretty slow themselves, but I have plenty of them. I just read that my GTX 1050 doesn't support SLI, thus doesn't support Cuda. Does the Folding client recognize multiple cards of different make, even if they're not configured in ...

Re: Gallium OS & FAH help

I explained more at https://github.com/FoldingAtHome/fah-issues/issues/1217 GalliumOS is based on Xubuntu, which is base on Ubuntu. They use Debian, though the debian package of the client is broken, I got the redhat package converted to debian, and installed, but it doesn't work, and doesn't allow ...

Re: Add a pcie 1x card?

Interesting! I should have 10 cores, 20 threads available in my Xeon processor, running at between 1,6 to 2Ghz; rather slow; but enough cores. The PCIE 16x slot has a GTX 1050 in it. I only have 2 more PCIE1x slots available, 1 of them could host a secondary graphics card, but the other not, because...

Add a pcie 1x card?

My server is almost set up. It has a GTX 1050 OC 2GB in the PCIE 16x slot. Would my computer fold any better if I added a $40 GeForce GT 710 graphics card to the mix? I know people are saying the PCIE 1x slots are too slow, but how slow are they, compared to a CPU? The GeForce GT 710 is the fastest ...

Re: Unable to fold via Linux

I think for linux it should be mentioned if a restart is needed. Most programs run right after install. Even system upgrades (core updates or upgrades) can run without reboot. The problem is that the client .deb package on the site, is defective. The RPM package (after conversion in Alien) installs ...

How often are the team/user stats updated?

My team stats seem to update just fine.
It often takes a few hours before I see my points reflected.

My user stats not.
I guess it only registers the first 1,893,393 users, and I'm below that; which is why I'm at position 1,893,393 of 1,893,393 I presume?
