GPU CORE22 (OpenMM 7.2, Win/Lin, OpenCL) going to ADVANCED

Post by rafwiewiora »

The new GPU Core 22 is here! This is based on OpenMM 7.2 - we're starting with the OpenCL version first, with CUDA joining in one of the next few versions. Stability is as good as Core 21 in beta testing - there were reports of AMD GPU underutilization that we would like to hear more about if you notice it.

The deadline and credit were adjusted to increase the PPDs by the performance speedup / increase in science produced (speedup is ~20% on 1080/1080Ti benchmark machine). Please watch out for temperature and wattage increases, and consider reducing OC.

Project stats:

11733 (DHFR benchmark)
core: Core22 0.0.1
# atoms: 23558
credit: 7498
k-factor: 0.75
timeout: 5.8d
deadline: 8.2d
precision: mixed

Thank you all!

Apologies everyone, I messed up with having the new core set right on the core download server and your clients weren't able to get it. PLEASE DUMP THE WUs. Proper testing will resume by tomorrow.

Advanced testing stopped for now, due to high failure rate. Thank you all and apologies for troubles!
