Not a "big" wgc cruncher, but do so occassionally.
Have this work unit, mb329_00000_1, about 19 hours already, progress is a little over 10%, and "to completion" is about 30 hours and climbing. is this correct? or do i abort? |

We recommend restarting BOINC. The work unit may have stalled. This sometimes (rarely) happens with HPF2.

Sorry, not certain what you mean by restarting Boinc.
Do you mean restart Boinc Manager? Do you mean reboot pc? Restarting Boinc Manager doesn't seem to have done anything. |

It depends. Better reboot to be sure, if it's not too much trouble.

Rebooted and "cpu time" went from over 30 hours down to about 1.5 hours, lol !!!
Gonna abort this wu, don't want to chance wasting another 28 hours of crunching time if it was to happen again. Don't know if this was me only, or anyone else from WCG needs to be notified about what happened with this particular wu. Pls adv. |

Hi,
----------------------------------------As Didactylos noted, the result sometimes get's stuck. On restart it will go back to the last good checkpoint. After that it's good as 100% sure it will finish without any trouble. No one has reported yet it does not. An FAQ discussing this: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=16378 The upcoming WCG client release will ask to shut down the BOINC service too, but if you follow the FAQ steps it's not necessary persé. Sorry for the 28 hours. cheers

Hi rilian,
This bug has never been tracked down. btw, does HPF2 use the latest Rosetta algorithms ? I do not know just where the fork is. We had our version in 2006. Rosetta is constantly changing. Lawrence |
