WU isn't making any progress.

I don't know where to find what WU it is, all I know is the elapsed time is going up but remaining time isn't moving. Progress is at 0.0%.

If you need any more information just ask.


Edit: Now the remaining time is increasing. I have no idea what to do.

Re: WU isn't making any progress.

Remaining time is only a guess based on previous history. Elapsed time is the best indicator.

You may also have BOINC throttled down, as supplied by default for laptop computer users. It can be changed in advanced tab, preferences, other options. It can be run at 100% if there are no heat issues.

The task tab of the BOINC advanced view is the easiest place to see the workunit(s) running and others that may be waiting.

I have an intense other task that runs at certain times. BOINC is designed to run at low priority, and will even stop if other things have priority.

What computer OS and BOINC version are you running?

Re: WU isn't making any progress.

Hello Diolef,
You need to bring up BOINC Manager (double click on the WCG icon) in the Advanced View and select the Tasks tab to see what work unit is running. Here is a web page that explains an older version of the BOINC Manager (it calls the Tasks tab the Work tab): http://www.boinc-wiki.info/BOINC_Manager
