Beta watch alert... Friday, February 24, 2012 2:31 PM (permalink)
Just had one land in my SR-2's queue titled "Beta Say No to Schistosoma 6.13".  I haven't seen any yet on my other 2 rigs that are crunching WCG, but just wanted to give you folks a "heads up".
 
PS: looks like it has a run time of 5-6hrs total as well.  I'm only like .6 points away from a Bronze Beta badge, so maybe this will be when I cross over!

      Yes this is a new WCG Project that just started a few days ago.  Maybe I got the one-lone-beta unit because I haven't seen anymore.  I do have some of the "Schistosoma" project WUs running as well and they are pretty lengthy (7-8hrs estimated to completion).

        Bump for Beta GPU and CPU work for HCC!  The CPU work is mainly to verify the GPU work done.
         
        To receive Beta GPU work, you only need to have opted in to receive Beta work, and opted in to receive GPU work (a selection only made available after the March 6 server upgrades) when it is available.

          Thanks Col323, I have received one CPU Beta for HCC so far and hoping to get to work a few more.

             Gpu work is nice to see for WCG. Will give a good boost to the work that gets done.

              Looks like some new rounds of Beta testing are starting up, so be on the watch for 'em.  I've gotten (5) of them today already for HCC.

                  Thanks for that news-byte EA!!  My rig that has been dedicated to Schistosoma hasn't had any of the standard WUs after they had that WU dry-up situation recently for the project.  So, it has been working Malaria lately with Schisto still enabled.  Just checking that rig, I have (7) Schisto-betas running right now.  Hoooha...

                    I had my crunch rig down to conserve some energy, but if Beta's are out, I got it started up again.
                     
                    I wonder if you need the lastest version of Boinc?  Still running on V6.1.

                      Looks like the Schisto Betas have dried up looking over my rigs this morning.  I'm running Boinc 7.0.25 on all of my rigs, but don;t know that it makes any difference with regard to receiving Beta WUs.  When EA posted that they were running the other day, they were all over all my rigs for about 12hrs and then gradually got gobbled-up.  I'm guessing they were preparing for the next round of Schisto WUs to be released to us and needed to do some testing ahead of it.  It was nice while it lasted though and I've rarely seen that many beta units running on all my rigs at once.  It was an all-out "beta-fest"!!
