David, I'm a little confused by today's checkin under this title:
http://boinc.berkeley.edu/gitweb/?p=boinc-v2.git;a=commit;h=e437d098243730d71aa531b31860e549bca303f6 To be useful and meaningful on a result page, this line should show the peak flop count of the device the task was actually run on. For a heterogeneous host with multiple GPUs from the same vendor, the choice of GPU to run an individual task on is made by the client scheduler at run time. Yet in sched_send.cpp, line 915, I see result.flops_estimate = bavp->host_usage.peak_flops; and from sched_types.h, struct HOST_USAGE { int proc_type; double gpu_usage; double gpu_ram; double avg_ncpus; double max_ncpus; double projected_flops; // the scheduler's best estimate of wu.rsc_fpops_est/elapsed_time. // Taken from host_app_version elapsed time statistics if available, // else on estimate provided by app_plan() double peak_flops; // stored in result.flops_estimate, and used for credit calculations If the field you're reporting is populated when you send the job to the user's host, won't it always report the peak_flops of the 'best' GPU in the host, not the actual GPU used? That's going to be really confusing. _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
