WU 13416 low ppd long run time

Post by rjccosta1 »

I never posted here before. Never had problems before :D :D . I have been folding for 8 years now. For the last 3 months my average ppd is 1.4M with rtx 2070. I have an undervolt of -100mv on gpu. Most wu finish less than 3 hours.

The problem is that this wu type is taking 6h to finish. It is very unusual. Also, the average ppd is 800k-900k. It is almost 50% less than usual. I reset the graphics to stock and the average was exactly the same. My cpu is running stock, no pbo enabled. The temperatures and speed of gpu and cpu are exactly the same as usual.

Please find the first log lines here to start the discussion. I will post the rest when I finish a couple of wu of this type. Any requests be polite and civilised, no need to bite. If I am wrong just nudge me in the right direction :D .

Code: Select all

Re: WU 13416 low ppd long run time

Post by rjccosta1 »

I find all of this strange because I got another 13416 project wu that was folding at the usual 1.4M ppd. This means that not all wu on project 13416 are slow. The next code is an example of one of the 3 wu that were very slow (800K ppd on rtx 2070).

Please find the wu in question - Project: 13416 (Run 1053, Clone 177, Gen 0):

Code: Select all

Re: WU 13416 low ppd long run time

Post by Joe_H »

There are multiple posts, including by the researcher running these projects, that the 134nn projects are having more variance than normal projects. WUs from some runs will be significantly slower, the data from these is being analyzed to see if a reason can be determined and improve future project configuration and assignment.

Yeah, I see this too, some of the 13416 WUs are insanely CPU hungry for some reason, even thou they are running on GPU, and require a full CPU core on its own to even be able to move forward, compared to other WUs in the same project that have the normal expected CPU load for the atom count they have.

I also just had a long running one, taking 12.5 hours (normally taking 4 hours). It was run:1291 clone:121 gen:0.

Just wanted to confirm, did I see in one of the posts from @JohnChodera that as long as the job results get successfully returned, we don't need to post abnormally long run times on the forum? Or maybe that pertained to switching to the latest core. Can't remember now.

Cheers,

Curt

As a general rule, if the WUs are returned, the researchers will be able to see how they behaved and I think it's not necessary to list them here, at least not systematically. But it's okay too, I'd say.

Thanks for the clarification. Conclusion: some wu are very slow and low ppd. Fair enough. I thought there was something really wrong with my cpu-gpu configuration. You have all been very helpful. We live in times of so much hate and negativity that is surprising to see so many people rowing in the same direction. What great community we have here. 1-0 for humanity.

I doubt that the scientists can see if some WUs take abnormaly long time.
There are so many reasons why a WU takes longer independent from their structure - like different gpus, underclocking, power limiting, pausing, parallel use of gpu and gaming, ...
Would be curious about a statement from the scientists.

Projects have a variety of goals and so do the researchers. As a general rule, John Chodera is very careful to check each WU and if it contained an error, he'll evaluate that information carefully. Other researchers may not be specifically analyzing each one so carefully, but they do pay attention.

As far as some WUs taking several hours, that's not surprising Some projects assign WUs that take several days. A single project that takes a week is more efficient than a series of 14 projects that each take 12 hrs. That's why people talk about Points Per Day. The processing time for the Covid Moonshot projects may often be very short, but that's not their main objective.

Re: WU 13416 low ppd long run time

Thanks for the reports, folks! We shifted from SARS-CoV-1 to SARS-CoV-2 Mpro retrospective benchmarks for the new batch of runs we just loaded into 13416-7, and it seems that this has unexpectedly caused an increase in WU compute time. We've adjusted the base credit upwards to compensate while we investigate what is going on.

> As a general rule, if the WUs are returned, the researchers will be able to see how they behaved and I think it's not necessary to list them here, at least not systematically.

I can confirm this is the case. Anything that's uploaded is available for us to analyze, and we periodically check to identify the major sources of issues and pinpoint specific WUs that are problematic, but it's good to hear about systematic issues (like this) or issues that do NOT get uploaded!

We're still experiencing a much greater RUN-to-RUN variation than expected. Each RUN here is a different ligand for Mpro (either SARS-CoV-1 or 2). The systems are nearly identical in size (number of atoms), so it's the composition of the workload that is causing variation. We're not sure why yet, but we hope to improve this for the next batch of projects (13418-9).

These projects are helping us support the COVID Moonshot (http://covid.postera.ai/covid), so huge thanks again for helping out as we keep progressing toward more potent inhibitors, and with some luck, a molecule we can put into clinical trials in the next few months.

Well than.
Thanks for clarification.
Normal TPF here is 00:01:04, like in 13416 (452, 12, 0)
13416 (669, 132, 0) 2080TI TPF 00:01:25

Just experienced this (project:13416 run:1051 clone:146 gen:0 core:0x22 unit:0x0000000112bc7d9a5f02af81adfa8240). I noticed on my GPU stats monitor that the GPU usage % was hovering around 62-64% for this WU, whereas I normally see GPU usage > 90%. GPU power draw was commensurately low, while all other GPU stats looked nominal. The GPU is a 2070 Super, running alongside an AMD 3900X cpu, also folding away. CPU utilization looked entirely normal for folding, while 13416 was running slowly on the GPU. Combined CPU & GPU "Total Estimated Points Per Day" was sitting around 1.5M while this WU ran (jogged?) - I'm usually showing 2.3-2.4M ppd CPU/GPU this week. Sitting at 2.5M ppd right now as I type.

I also found that another 13416 instance from earlier today crashed and restarted several times, finally giving up. The "slow" instance was the next WU I received, and it also crashed and restarted once during its extended run, but it did eventually successfully complete. I seemingly recall several other 13416-related crashes over the last couple of days. Normally my GPU folding is rock solid. My OS is Win10 Pro 1909, all patch levels current. I still have relevant log files, let me know if anything from the logs could be of service.

Cheers, Bob

I too have noticed this behaviour across a mix of high-end Nvidia cards (species 7 & 8). I seem to be getting these WUs on the majority of my cards, and it's shaved over 4 million points off my daily average. As long as science is getting done I can cope with that for a while, but it'd be nice to get more WUs suited to the hardware I'm donating to the cause.

My only question's are: 1) Will the expiration times be less than 3.5 days for a Moonshot WU? And 2) Will dumped units for this be reassigned?

Same observations, 13416 (1297, 133, 1) for example - PPD is lower than usual by about 25%.

I've noticed that my GPU is loaded at 75%. If I stop my CPU slot (using 6 out of 8 threads) it goes up to 82-85%. Could it be that my CPU bottlenecks the GPU slot here?

[Edit: Would have helped to read previous posts - it seems that's right, some WUs are just too CPU hungry]
