Hello, these are from me. I thought I'd double check how things looked on the forums after submitting such a massive run.

This is part of a massive sampling of small cyclic peptides generated using some pretty cool tweaks to Alphafold 2. The term hallucinated refers to protein structures generated using this method: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-04184-w

These jobs are generating energy landscapes for structurally diverse cluster centers. I'm super excited about these results and really appreciate the incredible amount of computation available from Rosetta@home. The info we get from this will help us put together a massive set of peptide backbones for binder design projects in the future.

I hope to be submitting more... Assuming I'm not breaking any rules by monopolizing this resource.

Thank you all!

Thank you for taking the time to come in here and speak to us. We like to know more about the science our machines are running. And submit as much as you like, Rosetta has been pretty quiet for years. I'll stick my 10 machines on it right away.

Nope.
Many of the systems that used to process Rosetta work have been moved to other projects due to the lack of Rosetta 4.20 work here for some time now. And due to the system requirements of Python Tasks, very few systems were capable of processing them, and because of issues with the application/ some Tasks many others that could have processed them chose not to because of the manual intervention often required to sort out those issues.

The more Rosetta 4.20 work there is, then the more people that will come to process it, and the sooner it will be returned.

And are running successfully, fully and with no errors on Intel, AMD and Android as well, which can't be said for everything.

However large the batch submitted, the appetite to run them is huge.
In past times, if the queue to run was even 4 times as large, there'd be concern the queue was running a little low

My 2 Androids (OS 7 and 11) are getting no tasks.

Bring anything you want done on a pc here, I will be glad to help process them for you.
I take it these are complex models as they do not run as fast as the old stuff.
At an 1hr and 50 minutes run time CPU time is just over 30 minutes and CPU % usage is down in the 30's. Also a bit odd. Maybe my system?

Something is up with your system, all my 8 are running them at 100% CPU usage. Is your CPU doing other things? What's the total CPU usage?

Your previous Rosetta 4.20 tasks are showing the correct flops for your CPU.

My task manager showed that cpu was loaded 50% when voltage regulation module on my board was thermally throttled and dropped voltage and cpu frequency.

I do not permit throttling, I add more fans! 7 of my 8 systems are in the garage and can make as much noise as they like!

I was sure I had a few earlier in the week, but my host isn't showing recent completions so you may be right

Mine are all running 100%, but typically 5h 2m CPU time, 5h 25m elapsed time, but it's the PC I'm regularly using for all sorts of things.
A laptop I'm not using is at 5h 34m v 5h 43m
Maybe a little more drop-off than usual but nothing surprising or concerning

That's odd.
I have 8 physical 16 virtual
BOINC is told to use 95% i.e. 15 cores in order to leave one free for GPU and general purpose things.
We have had this discussion in the past already.

I have FAH running, but GPU only.

NOW Boinc has allocated 4 new slots for working on these new tasks.

First time is when I started to compose, 5 minutes later the second values are showing.

Original #1 task 39.8% 4 hrs clock time and 1:38 CPU
#2 47.9 +/- 1:13/35 Went up to 48 now
#3 47.5 +/- 57/27 Dropped to 48
#4 51.5 +/- 54/27 Went up to 52.2
#5 50.9 +/- 28/14 Dropped to 48

Only using 32% of all physical memory
Task manager shows 4.2 tasks only using only 2-5% CPU% out of BOINC managers 66-70% of the total cpu percentage.

To drop to 50% is very odd indeed. So you have 15 of Rosetta 4.2 tasks running at once, yes? And the 16th thread helps the GPU with Folding? Folding hasn't stolen the CPU had it? Folding often does whatever it likes and ignores what you say. I do similar things and get almost 100% usage in Rosetta. Use the task manager to find out how much % of your CPU each program is getting. With 16 threads, you should be getting about 6% usage for each Rosetta task.

6.25

6.25

I said about 6 because the OS etc etc steals a bit.

Well I had a deep clean round with Wisecare and cleaned up the system and reboot.
The CPU format is 15 cores for BOINC and 1 Core everything esle (GPU support, web browsing, youtube if I am on it), etc.

BOINC is now running 1 GPU Grid, 1 Milkyway (1 CPU core for both) and 14 cores of 4.2 for a total of 15 cores BOINC

Percentages have evened out now on the new work but with the exception of the one I'm 5hrs clock time running and only 2hrs+ of CPU and only 46% CPU. Progress is only 38%
STDERR on these tasks does not offer any information.

2nd task runs at 51% CPU running 2:13/1:08 and 17.7 done
3rd task is 52% 1:58/1:02 and 15.4
4 and 5 show similar behavior

All the rest show normal behavior 30 clock and 20 cpu with 62-65%
I have one running at 94%!

I'm about ready to kill that 5hr one because all the other tasks will finish before that even gets close to finishing.

This comes from Boinc Tasks

Do you run python workunits for gpugrid? Python workunits use several cpu cores to run python machine learning environment, so conflict with cpu workunits.
For gpugrid you can tail wrapper_run.out file.

There's something terribly wrong with your system if you're getting 16 things getting half a core each when you have 16 cores.

Well that's interesting...in task manager there is 1 python that uses about 29.x% max and goes down to 16%
And slew...I can't count..maybe 30 processes but only 0.1% each. So that grabs what...31% or something?

I had a look while suspending GPU. While it takes them out of the system resources, BOINC does not change anything with RAH%.

I have WCG running on GPU, but nothing else besides FAH is running GPU.

So it really doesn't look like python is affecting anything.
I'll run the task out and put that project as no new tasks and see what happens.
Due to energy costs, I can not run this system like I used to. So there will be a delay in getting started again. (10 hrs or more but less than a day)

Is there any CPU time free in task manager? If yes, something very weird is wrong. If no, get rid of whatever is using it up.

I killed some non windows stuff that I don't use that is in the background.
It did not make any difference.
I'll try a "repair" of BOINC and see if that does anything, otherwise tomorrow night (Eu time) I'll start up again and see what happens.

Show us what you see in your task manager. What is the free % CPU usage? What CPU usage does each Rosetta task get? We can't help you if you give no information.
