Wow! Renting a 3090... Physically? Or virtually?The daily production gap is still 10 M PPD. I've been peddling hard to close that gap including renting a 3090 but I can't do it.

This 6+ days wait for the end of the PG challenge is going to be a loooong one...The daily production gap is still 10 M PPD.
Can you create multiple 32 CPU slots for multiple parallel WU?Thinking out loud...
When the PG thing is done, I may have to resort to desperate measures like CPU folding. Research will be needed:
- Has the GRO_A8 core been improved to work with higher threadcounts yet?
- If not, can the selection of a "cause" (folding slot option, the disease to research) be used to enforce work reception for GRO_A7 only?
Note to self, the latest post in "Announcements - Folding Consortium" which explicitly mentions GRO_A7 is about a COVID project.- If not, is it perhaps possible to blacklist workservers which carry GRO_A8 work?
- It is possible to "abort-and-report" GRO_A8 work shortly after it was received, manually or scripted. But maybe foldingathome.org has mechanisms in place which penalize clients with frequent failures of this kind.
I'm pretty sure you can but with the quick return bonus you get more points if you can max out your thread count. I will likely try it out on the 256 thread EPYC after the Primegrid race is over.Can you create multiple 32 CPU slots for multiple parallel WU?
I believe last year F@H said the max CPU for A8 WUs was 32 CPU, so that might be the best you can do for CPU per taskI'm pretty sure you can but with the quick return bonus you get more points if you can max out your thread count. I will likely try it out on the 256 thread EPYC after the Primegrid race is over.

Thanks biodoc !
I shut down the rented 3090 yesterday morning so i'm running on my own hardware which is 19.5 M PPD which means the daily production gap will increase again for the Marauders.BTW, it looks like my Marauders are going down in production, and the Moonshot gang is going up ! One week until we can all get back to just this.
I appreciate your enthusiasm, Stefan. Are you ok with leaving the teams as is for the remainder of the month? It's definitely an uphill battle.Well, so far the Moonshot Gang is only 10% behind. Sure, it's certainly going to get worse and worse during the next days until Friday inclusive. But then we shall strike back, big time! >:-D

Yeah, I know, these are big words from somebody who has got just some slightly dated Pascal GPUs.¹ To be honest, I am betting a lot on @Icecold's Folding comeback too.I await with bated breath.............................
