When can GPU computing be transferred from harvester machine to farmer machine？

[xieyusi9]

My configuration of multiple harvesters is low. If I can transfer the calculation to the farmer machine, I can start plot C8 from now on, so as to transfer all to Gigahorse Compressed Plots.

I have the same problem

[madMAx43v3r]

It's the next thing to do

@madMAx43v3r I'm waiting for this function

[Jacek-ghub]

Any progress? Any estimate when it will be released?

IMO this may be the most needed addition right now.

[Jacek-ghub]

Any updates?

We are on tn-10 right now. That decompression module would be really helpful, as we are getting closer to the mainnet. At least, in my case I don't want to purchase weaker GPUs for all harvesters, would rather use one stronger GPU that would handle both VDF processing and decompression for the whole setup.

[madMAx43v3r]

It's on the list yes. I know it's a great feature to have.

[Jacek-ghub]

Thank you. Is there any ETA for it? As mentioned, it is a make-or-break issue for me.

[madMAx43v3r]

Let's say two weeks

[Jacek-ghub]

Thank you Max, looking forward to that.

[Jacek-ghub]

Super, thank you! I will start playing with it now.

Actually, one more question. Would it be possible to offload VDF processing to that compute module as well?

[madMAx43v3r]

No, VDF is a different story.

Not sure how to set CHIAPOS_RECOMPUTE_HOST on the harvester?

[madMAx43v3r]

It's a environment variable, you can google how to set it in Linux or Windows.
