You seem to know what you're doing. I'm also running a 1070, and just installed  last night. The log file in advanced control shows 4 work units completed over night and the point estimates after each one add up to around 290,000... web control shows 46,000 points earned for the team. Does the web control point total only update every so often, or is the point estimate on the advanced log that far off? And do you have any tips to maximize PPD other than OC?

the points estimated are the points granted for that one unit. you may complete 10 of these units in a day. so what you need to do to calculate your points per day (PPD) is know the time you started and finished that unit in hours. then take 24 and divide that by the time it took to finish that unit. this will tell you how many of those units you could do in a day. and finally multiply that number by the estimated points to get your PPD for that unit.
 
example: log data
07:28:58:WU02:FS01:0x18:Completed 0 out of 5000000 steps (0%)
09:59:12:WU02:FS01:0x18:Completed 5000000 out of 5000000 steps (100%)
09:59:22:WU02:FS01:Sending unit results: id:02 state:SEND error:NO_ERROR project:10475 run:372 clone:0 gen:35 core:0x18 unit:0x00000024ab40415c567481a39d79b288
09:59:37:WU02:FS01:Final credit estimate, 56296.00 points
 
Start: 7:28:58
Stop: 9:59:12
Total run time: 2.504 Hours
Project: 10475
Credit: 32540
PPD = (24/2.504)*32540 = 539,602

 
also if you havent yet you must get yourself a passkey. if you dont your PPD will be gimped. you can do that by going to the configure->Identity tab and clicking link to the passkey request page.

Can you let me know if I'm doing this right. I'm using the advanced log to get start/end times and point estimates for each work unit:
 
10:25:41:WU00:FS01:0x21:Completed 5200 out of 520000 steps (1%)  <- First entry for work unit
11:20:18:WU00:FS01:Cleaning up                                                      <- Last entry for work unit
11:20:18:WU00:FS01:Final credit estimate, 26150.00 points                 <- The final credit estimate for the unit.
It took 55 minutes, so .917 hours
PPD = (24/.917)*26150 = 684,405

Next one
 
11:23:43:WU01:FS01:0x21:Completed 50000 out of 5000000 steps (1%)
16:23:41:WU01:FS01:Cleaning up
16:23:41:WU01:FS01:Final credit estimate, 163188.00 points <- Cancer fighting karma
5 hours pretty much exactly.
PPD = (24/5)*163188 = 783,302
 
 
Is that how you're calculating, or am I using the wrong numbers?  Sorry for the bother, I've just never tried to play with folding but interested in how the 1070 is doing.

Looks good, though you need to pick the 0% start not 1% start. It shouldn't effect your numbers much but it's more accurate. Also I'm curious as to which unit gave you that 783k ppd. You can see it on the sending unit results line, just like I posted.

Wow, hadn't even noticed the 0% lines since they're mixed in the the end of the previous WU. It didn't change the first one at all, but it dropped the second one. Thanks for helping me figure it out, had a few people asking about PPD results with the OC and had no clue.

No clue what it means, but that should be the one.

Your ppd calculations are a tad high. Yes, that is the time to run the WU, but the download, startup, shutdown, and upload all take time which eats into your average.
 
Not trying to find any fault/critic...  just letting you know that your long term actual daily average will be lower based on those logistics, and the WU variability that Chris21010 has listed.
 
thanks for reporting all.

This is true but not to the extent that you think as it downloads the next work unit before you finish it. And it starts that new unit once it starts to upload of the results of the old unit. Total down time between units isnt long, matter of seconds not minutes. Though the variance in work units is the biggest variable to your ppd.

9158  x18 core = 471689 for a 980 ti  (so its 30k points less then the 9157)

10489 = 493380

Are all these numbers under windows?  Linux should add another 10-15% if its works properly
