I have let GPUGRID in Boinc use 100% of my GPU even when not idle (Geforce 9800 GT)

So far I have let it run for a strait 12 Hours but the elapsed time says only 41 min !!!!

What is going on? does it only measure CPU time? (If so my Credit is going to suck with even my Ton of work)

I wouldn't look at the elapsed time. What's the % done? About 50% or so after 12 hours would make sense on that 9800GT, depending on OC'ing and the type of WU.

Is credit given on Time or Size of Work?

Elapsed time, in the 6.10.18 client, is just that. If it's been running for about 12 hours, it should show 12 hours. The CPU time will be much, much less, of course, but the elapsed time should be up there where you expect it to be.

Something sounds borked here.

There's a separate setting for computing allowed "while computer is in use" and also for "Use GPU while computer is in use" in the BOINC client preferences. Make sure both of those are checked, otherwise the GPUGRID task won't run while you're using the computer.

My computer never Idles while its on. So Yes I checked Both of those the project is running now for 13 hours total but it only shows 53min 23 sec ? Yes the progress bar is at 72.1%

Basic View, just found that Advanced View has the correct time. They need to make the basic view show total time because projects like this just use the GPU.

Specs:
2.2Ghz Amd Phenom X4
EVGA Geforce 9800GT
4 GB Ram

I let my computer run this using the GPU 100% whenever I'm on. Am I any help to this project?

Anyone know how much of a bonus it is? (Finished under 48 hours)
A set # or % ?

Points are based on the work done, not on how long it takes to do it.
The bonus is +35%.

Coby, in the next few weeks a GPUGrid application will be available that will improve NVidia card performance. This should allow you and many others to finish tasks much faster. So your contribution will increase. For those just finishing in time, you should then start to see more bonus points.
