First time GPU folder
Posted: Thu Oct 04, 2018 6:50 pm
G'day! Long time Folder, first time GPU Folder. I finally got an opportunity to try Folding on a GPU as I have some Google credits to spare. I set up two separate 4 core, 4 GB Ubuntu 18.04 instances, the first with a Tesla P100 and the second with a Tesla V100.
With no CPU slots running, and both instances working on WUs from the same project, I'm seeing 1.03M PPD on the P100 and 2.28M PPD on the V100. At this rate, I'll get as many points in a week as I did in the past 15 years. Are these the expected PPDs on a P100/ V100? Is there anything from the outputs below to indicate these numbers can be improved?
