p1498 bonus gone for large memory usage?

[davekusa]

I've been getting p1498 and 300 mb memory usage and the points blow(542)

Is bonus gone for large memory usage?

p1497 = 300 PPD
p1498 = 100 PPD

intel,

amd guys running any better?

is 300mb considered large memory usage then?

dave ...yes the 1498's are just average ppd

lee ... 300 mb is about the biggest memeory usage i have seen including the qmd's (from before your folding days - they ended back in january '06).

Most wu's are under 165 mb (gpu's)... and most current amber and patty melts are less than 6 mb.

Generation 0 of p1498 started just like p1497. However, each successive frame got a little bit longer. On my FX-53 it started at just over 18 minutes and ended at just over 28 minutes/frame, averaging around 25:15/frame. It was making 400+ ppd for the first five frames which is about as long as they run them benchmarking. Sadly, generation 1 started where gen 0 finished and subsequent generations have been even slower. I complained about the resources required compared to the points value long ago but it wasn't changed.

thanks for the heads up chasR. Just want to make sure the issue wasn't on my end.

I have one of those WU on my main rig right now. Started out at around 15 mins a frame and has increased to over 30 mins at the 57th frame.

Project: 1498 (Run 0, Clone 203, Gen 4)
Frame 1 in about 2:04:00 on a P3 933 duallie folding a p2413 on the other cpu.
Frame 18 is still about 2:04:00. So not all of them slow down. 62 ppd.

P1498 hogs enough ram bandwidth to slow down the p2413 on the other cpu by 20 minutes/frame, taking it from 85 ppd to 70ppd. It would be nice if they rebenched p1498.
