17257 Beta or released?

Post by BobWilliams757 »

Just a quick question, is this work unit supposed to be released to the masses or still in beta?

A search shows only a thread in the beta section, but it's worded as though it might be intended for the announcements section.

https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php? ... 57#p354560

I just want to make sure it is released and not still in beta, as I have no beta flag set. No harm either way, it seems to be running fine. I just stumbled upon it after searching, as I hadn't noticed the WU number before.

It's the largest atom count WU that exists right now... those wide GPU's should love it. Surprisingly my very narrow iGPU seems to be doing fine with it as well, and will meet the timeout with above average PPD as well. Maybe the RAM requirement is helping me some there, as usually RAM requirements are fairly small aren't they?

Thanks for the response toTOW

I actually noticed that the thread had been moved to the announcements section, but forgot to comment to clarify it for others.

I just picked up another before logging on.

Thanks. On my 1660 Super, I'm getting over 1.5M PPD on this project; that is even better than on a Moonshot WU.

I'm not surprised at all. I'm getting above average PPD on a little integrated iGPU that thrives on small atom count WU's. I'd imagine the guys with the newer cards are getting insane returns.
