Domain decomposition issue with project 17215

Post by Gnomuz »

In the past 12 hours, I got my first three failed WU (see one example in log below) with project 17215, which seems to be a recent project.

Although I'm rather new to F@H, I think I understand it is a hardware compatibility issue. I have a 16 threads CPU (AMD Ryzen 7 3700X), and also fold with a Quadro P2000 GPU. So 15 threads are available for CPU computing, which obviously is not compatible with this very project. I read in a pinned thread by PantherX that these issues were to be reported here so that the F@H team can prevent that project from being assigned to other folders with a similar setup.
I hope that will help, and let's keep on folding !

If you get more of these errors you can limit your FAH CPU slot to use less threads like 14 or 12 temporarily. But is should get fixed on server side...

Re: Domain decomposition issue with project 17215

Post by Neil-B »

Not hardware incompatibility simply a settings issue .. that project seems not to like 15 threads .. 15 is not a great number for the old cpu core tbh .. adjusting the slot thread count to 12 in advanced control will stop the issue if you continue to have it .. 14 and 13 aren't great either .. the newer A8 core doesn't have this issue but there are still a good few projects around still using the a7 core and probably will bd for a while.

Reporting here is good as the researchers can put a block on issuing this project to 15 slots.

Re: Domain decomposition issue with project 17215

I have sent a message to the researcher running this project, assignment to CPU settings that are a multiple of 5 were supposed to be excluded from what I can find.

Let my legacy quad-core CPU's have a shot at crunching 'em.... :D

Thanks for the replies, it widely confirms what I had understood reading other threads. When I mentioned a "hardware incompatibility", I meant an incompatibility between that very project and the number of threads available (i.e. 15). And the recent post by Joe_H seems to confirm it's a settings issue.

So far, out of a bit more than 300 CPU-computed WU, only 3 on that specific project failed. And as the log shows, it only takes 4'15'' to switch to another WU, which will very likely complete properly with 15 threads. Overall, the loss in production is rather limited, unless, of course, it reaches a point where I would get a much larger percentage of failed WU.

But as foldy and Neil-B suggested, I also envisage reducing the current CPU slot to 12 threads, and creating a second CPU slot with 3 threads to benefit from the 15 available threads at any time. Now, I don't know whether it would be better to fold with :
- a single 15 threads slot, which will suffer from a small percentage of failed WU, but optimizes the CPU
- two slots (12 threads and 3 threads), which should encounter less failed WU, but may be less efficient.

Thanks in advance for any idea and/or personal experience on this possible trade-off.

I got the same error multiple times with 11, bumped it down to 8 resolved the problem for me

tbh if 15 core slot rarely fails for you stick with it - most of the time the slot count incompatibility is reported and the project appropriately stopped from release for these counts during beta - sounds from Joe_H post that it was spotted but for some reason the hold on release to multiples of 5 didn't stick - so good report :) ... a 15 is normally better than a 12 and a 3 for thoughput/science as long as it doesn't error ... as more projects are release to the a8 core and less to the a7 this will become a thing of the past ... fold on

Thanks for the clear answer Neil-B, I'm gonna stick to 15 threads unless I encounter too frequent errors. As moreover it's future-proof with a8, let's keep it simple !
