Well, I switched over to the Muscular Dystrophy project, while I wait for this genome project to get resolved. I was just about to claim that it has the same problem, because after 1 hour, I still had 0% progress, when it finally showed 0.9% done, after over an hour. At that rate, It'll take 80 to over 100 hours to run just 1 work unit.

I've decided to wait for this project. It fits the capabilty and time of my computer and log in times.

Any idea if we're close to a resolution yet?

Well, I did not switch. I´ve just selected to get WUs from other projects while this one is not available.

Suspicions? It's relatively easy to check, by visiting BOINC's 'Result Status' pages on My Grid and selecting the name of a suspected WU. If any in the quorum were returned with error and some CPU time, they were aborted. If there is no CPU time they were likely canceled before start. If thus you see one in the 144x series that has a successful return i.e. a Pending Validation Status and no errors, it is safe to crunch.

There is a but: The quorum is likely to take longer if 1 or 2 were returned successful and 1 was canceled/aborted.

Anyway, the one i had suspended actually has a 'error' result back, thus have send it back.

cheers

PS I dont know how the many bad results effect the work fetch rules. Canceling few has little impact, but canceling many will temporarily dry up work fetch to very little until a good result is returned.

The build in time-out is 7 days CPU time for BOINC, which used to be same as the deadline, but that one is now 9.

The UD Agent is 3 weeks wallclock, 2 weeks CPU time
