Think you are mixing up your CPU and GPU. | |

Think you are mixing up your CPU and GPU. Hrmm.. Well you might be right.. I know the difference between cpu and gpu, but I was assuming the percentage used as indicated by the agent I have was referring to the GPU usage for the WU's on the GPUs.. but it may actually be showing CPU usage, and not have any indication of how much GPU is being used.. Do GPUGrid WU's typically take a lot longer than other grid computer tasks? The log running one said it takes 8-12 hours on the fastest machines so that one I expected to be slow, but the other one seemed even slower and I typically can produce a Milkyway, Einstein or Docking WU in 2 hours or less.. Some as fast as a few minutes.. | |

You can use GPUZ to see the % GPU utilization. | |

At the other extreme some MW, VP and ibercivis tasks take just a few minutes. You aint kidding.. I just had a MW take like 8 minutes.. | |

Perhaps you did not get any GPUGrid tasks because you were running other GPU tasks (MW) or other project debt (due to project weightings) was in affect. | |

I was running 50 to 60% on my 2 GTX 260's in SLI. I backed my CPU usage down to max of 70% and now run about 82% on each of my GPU's | |

You might want to check out gpu shark. its good at displaying relevant gpu information of all installed gpu's. | |
