Quarantine@home (not a boinc project)

Post by biodoc »

Quarantine@home is a new project focused on Covid-19. It's an independent project (NOT boinc). I've got it running on an RTX-2070S under linux.

https://quarantine.infino.me/

Nvidia-docker2 is required to use nvidia GPUs on linux

Aurum posted instructions to get going on linux GPUs.

Substitute your preferred username for 'Aurum' in the last command (highlighted in red).
sudo docker build -t quarantinegpu -f Dockerfile.gpu . && sudo nvidia-docker run -it -e ME=Aurum quarantinegpu

The average task run time on my 2070S is 2.9 seconds.

A list of users and user data is here:

Thanks. Totally sucks on Windows, lol. 347 seconds on a 2080Ti. Barely used 30% of GPU, core clock barely hit 600, mem clock barely moved.

GTX1070 and Linux is a wee bit faster. :) Looks to be about 13 seconds per task, but the average time is still dropping, as the 4 Windows tasks' longer run times have yet to be 'absorbed' for a lack of a proper term. :)

Mine just stops every now and then. Plus running it as sudo makes me a little nervous about security. Too bad there's no forum so we can give some feedback.

I noticed mine had quit as well. I was REALLY nervous putting it on Windows, but for Linux I could see all the commands and such, and I felt a little better as everything looked like genuine repositories and such.

I am not seeing myself running any non-BOINC DC project anytime soon. (Folding@home excepted.)

Besides an ominous "Quarantine@Home is a project of the Aleph-1 Foundation" footer, I am not seeing any "about us" info there.

No info who is driving this project (except indirectly via the github account).
No info about what will be done with the data.
No privacy statements etc pp.
Nothing.

Although I don't harbor suspicions, I still give this a: Pass!

There are many properly run alternatives out there.
