Posted 18 Dec 2011 by AMDave Post: After several failed attempts to get BOINC 7.0.2 (DEV) working under Ubuntu 11.04 and 11.10, I have returned an Albert OpenCL result under Win7-64. The GPGPU was a HD 5770, latest AMD driver version available 11.12, BOINC client is development version 7.0.2 The standard 500 coblestones was awarded. Run time was 30,744.65 seconds CPU time was 1,304.54 seconds So I make that just over 9 points per 10 minute period. Barely better than a CPU but using bucket-loads more power. The completion time is not quite 1 quarter of one of CPU-core's completion time on the same machine. But the CPU has 6 cores and so can still beat the snot out of the OpenCL performance on the HD 5770. Not really worth it then. Well, not with the current AMD Catalyst driver anyway. Once I get BOINC 7.0.2 working under Linux_AMD64 I should be able to test the different Catalyst drivers. But until then, this is the best I can do. |
