Hi everyone! I recently restarted Boinc after a couple of years.. Earlier there was a page were You could see your progress and total ranking, with a red or green arrow depending on your contribution? Is this still available? Best regards from Roland in Sweden |

Some of the third-party stats sites provide this sort of feature. As far as I'm aware it has never been part of the "core" of BOINC. Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

Sounds like you’re talking about BOINCstats. https://www.boincstats.com/ Seti@Home classic workunits: 29,492 CPU time: 134,419 hours ![]() ![]() |

Look at your account page, midway you will see a list of 4 links. I prefer Free-DC. It will show your average RAC. You can move around that site and see how you compare to others. ![]() ![]() |

I agree. I like FreeDC a lot better. Seti@Home classic workunits: 29,492 CPU time: 134,419 hours ![]() ![]() |

I like boincstat's graphs better, where I can clearly see the trends over weeks. I didn't find similar graphs in FreeDC, but I probably didn't dig enough. What I don't get is why everyone has their own idea of RAC, which seems to be simply a larger moving average window. Is it just for stabilizing RAC so ranking is more stable? I like BOINC's because it lets me quickly see the difference new hardware or workload change makes. ![]() |

I like BOINC's because it lets me quickly see the difference new hardware or workload change makes.BOINC's RAC is of no use for checking major changes as it takes 6-8 weeks for it to get to it's new "normal" range. The best method for quickly seeing the effect of changes is the WU runtime of WUs of the same type. The next best is the APR (Average Processing Rate) for a given application on that computer, once again for WU s of the same type. Grant Darwin NT |

I think our definition of "quick" and "change" is quite different. :-) I am a fairly casual cruncher. I am not talking about optimization of a specific application to squeeze out last bit of performance on same hardware. That needs controlled benchmarking, not credits. For me, the recent credits is more of a way to see how much of adding a new piece hardware changed, or a workload change, or some problems surfaced. A few days is "quick" enough for me and BOINC RAC more or less does the job for sharp changes. Honestly, most of time I am just looking at daily credit increase. That's what brought me here when I suddenly realized SETI's credit doesn't seem to be matching what I used to see. Soon I found a bunch of invalids and then top pinned post about Windows 10 + latest nvidia drivers... :-( This goes back to my other question: why boincstat and freedc have separate RACs that are trailing BOINC RAC even further behind... ![]() |

IMHO a better way to check the performance of the host is by FreeDC dialy production. Better and faster than RAC. RAC takes a mean of the production in a long term. I choose a beacon, one of the long term top hosts who runs 24-7 & SETI only. Then i compare what my host does against it. ![]() |

With FreeDC I can see what I am doing everyday with combined or by selecting a single computer, I can see how it is doing the same day. So if I change something, I can see within a day how it has affected productivity on that machine. The only issues is that the status are updated twice a day due to when Seti reports the credits. So I have to wait until the end of the day to see the total My 2 cents... ![]() ![]() |
