Last night I crunched a bunch of Wus in 1 hour 20 minutes and see the dnetc-gpu-1.3 file has the processor priority at 9, so I cannot do anything.

There's definitely something wacky going on - thats similar to Dan's problem in the OP - and he has been through nothing short of heroic efforts to try and find the issue, so far to no avail. He has 5870s, you are reporting it on 5850s, and I dont get the issue on twin 5970s.

This one is baffling.

Try the app_info file - even for single GPUs [just put 1 as the number of GPUs in the app_info] - and see if explicit instructions from app_info overcomes the problem

EDIT: Just had a thought, bit wacky but ..... ,I did have an issue with it being set to 9 when the option first came out. Many reported it being quicker, but I found it slower, so I always had it set to 4, which was the old default. On change to V1.3, I went in and changed mine from the new default of 9 back to 4. Its a long shot .... but .... I did have slow down issues at 9 wa y back when it first came in, although nothing like reported at the OP - try it at 4 not 9 and see what happens - bit of a wild card, but you never know, and easy to check.

He is still running version 11.11 of the drivers, aren't they still not good for crunching and shouldn't he be at 11.9 or less right now.

Thanks. I'm not sure what happened. I detached/attached and everything seems to be running at the right rate.

Ok, I figured it out. I did the check for core performance. It came back saying core 3 was best. I tried changing the config using the local app, but that didn't work. When I set my core 3 in my Moo Wrapper preferences, my times for dual 5870s went to 9 minutes.

Thanks,

Dan

Sounds like its working.

Now the only question I have is what are the points you are getting awarded for each task?

I set those computers into diffrent groups and it helped bring the 1.2hr job down to 22mins on a ATI 5850 computer running stock speeds on both CPU and GPU.
