End of muon project?

#1 Ungelesener Beitrag von sirzooro » 31.07.2017 10:14

I have just checked http://www.stephenbrooks.org/muon1/ page and found following information on top of it:
This project is not currently active. The back-end is still running (for now) for hobbyists and people interested in running the software, but it is not working on anything significant.
This means that everyone who still crunches this project is simply wasting electricity. It would be good to shutdown it, so people could start working on something useful.

Yes, and that information had been posted here a while ago. :wink:

Good to know. I was not crunching here for a long time, so I missed it.

I checked old news and found one from 11 June 2015. It links to post on external forum http://stephenbrooks.org/forum/?thread= ... angaozmdpd, which has following post added on 2017-04-21:
I've just updated the site to say the project is currently dormant as I've not found another use for it in my current research.

I've actually used Muon1 (the code) and its optimiser a lot in my recent design work, but have never needed more than a single core so far!
So things have changed few months ago.

If you want to keep muon project running here, please at least add some comment at yoyo@home preferences page where apps are selected, so new and returning users would know about current project status. BTW, this project also should not be selected by default for new users.

If anyone has Muon WUs and wants to help get me 175 more WUProp hours, I'll crunch 10x the hours on the project of your choice and give you credits and WUProp hours. I can crunch Win, Linux, android-ARM/32 and Linux ARM/32.

Thanks,

Please, just a few more Muon WUS. I'm only 10 hours from a 10k hour goal on WUProp :(
