6.4.3

Zur Übersicht

• client: work-fetch tweak: don't increment overall CPU shortfall if any jobs pending in simulation
• client: use FLOPs, rather than CPU time, as the basis for estimating job completion times. This should improve estimates for GPU apps, and prevent the DCF from getting messed up.
• client: estimate time to completion based on elapsed time, not CPU time (improves estimates for coproc apps)
• client: compute duration_correction_factor based on elapsed time, not CPU time (otherwise it doesn't work for coproc or multi-proc apps)
• client: in estimate of job completion time, weight the estimate based on fraction done more heavily (quadratic rather than linear)
• Remove the notion of "CPU efficiency" from both client and server. This wasn't being measured correctly for coproc/multithread apps, and its effect is now subsumed in DCF.
• client: fix calculation of CPU shortfall; don't fetch work from projects with zero CPU shortfall
• client: fix compiler warning.
• client: parse checkpoint_elapsed_time from state file; if missing, use checkpoint CPU time.
• client: enforce CPU schedule: if we're running a coproc job, keep CPU utilization strictly less than NCPUS.
• client: fix last checkin
• MGR: Restore m_bForceUpdateSelection logic because it is needed to set text in Suspend/Resume button and prevent flicker.
• MGR: Set wxWidgets option "msw.staticbox.optimized-paint" to 0 in another try to fix Task Pane background erase glitch on Windows.
• MGR: the last changes seemed to help the Task Pane background erase glitch on Windows but introduced a new problem, so restore code which erases and refreshes entire Tasks panel when changing tabs.
• WININSTALL: Disable "Protected Application Execution" mode by default.
• WININSTALL: Turn off the check for Internet Explorer 5.x
