Unexplained dips in production

[DeputyKovacs]

Any body got this stuff figured out? I leave my rig folding when I am away from home with windows updates disabled so as not to interfere with the folding (made that mistake before.) Still, very occasionally my client will just stop producing WUs. As I’m not home I can’t tell what is going on but as it’s happens for nearly 24 hrs it can’t be transient. PPD seems to have picked up again now by itself. Somebody must know what’s going on. Some of you have been doing this a loooooong time

Some WU are lower in points too. My updates the last 24 have been a lot smaller than last week, but all my rigs are confirmed running. Also, install “PowerToys” and use the “keep awake indefinitely” setting… you can still have monitor power off after a few minutes too.

Well, actually—one of my co-workers shut my work rig off at the end of the day yesterday

*You’re fired

Need to look at the FAHClient log for additional info.

Some possible issues:
Failed 10x wu and FAH halted folding for 24 hours.
No internet connection.
Computer not running.
FAH not running.
No wu assigned.
Bad wu.

Current log is viewable in FAHControl. Prior logs available in the FAHClient folder.
Forget how many old logs FAH keeps by default, but can be set with a parameter in FAHControl, Expert tab, "extra client options".

Some useful "extra client options":
log-rotate-max value=99
config-rotate-max value=99
next-unit-percentage value=100

My daily point production has been all over the place as can be seen in this image.

It seems to depend on which WUs I get.

@Farwalker2u ppd +/- 10-15% is well within normal distribution, especially for a pair of very high end GPU.

 

[Farwalker2u]

On the image of the chart I posted, the percentage difference between the high (51,362,911) and the low (36,368,299) is (using the difference and dividing by the lower number) 41.2%.

Mine too also goes all over the place but not all the time. Here is mine.

@HayesK Thanks for the info. I will check the hopefully still existent log files when I get home later today.

How long are your WU'S and how many do you get a day on avg?

Looking at this image, my daily WUs run from about a low of 50 to a high of about 80. It seems to be the "luck of the draw" for me. When I get a lot of low yield WUs, I get low daily PPD.

Between 10 & 20 a day but I will get to fold a lot more today cause my Birthday is Monday the 18th.

Have a great birthday.
I hope it is memorable for all the right reasons. Hug those you love and tell them you love them.
You might get a strange look but they will remember; and so will you.
Maybe print that certificate and stick it on the wall where your computer is.

I got you an extension cord to run over to the neighbors house so you can't fold on that 4090 24/7
