Re: smilesmile Join "MyOnlineTeam" Today - Chapter 39 smilesmile
What level of BOINC are you running? I remember seeing that in the past with older levels of BOINC but it's been a while since that's happened to me.

One of the machines that exhibits the problem is 5.10.45 and the other is 6.6.36. The 6.6.36 machine also had the same problem with 6.2.28 (the current WCG recommended release). I'll give it another try when WCG decides that a newer BOINC release is stable enough or if a new version of the HPF2 application becomes available, but I'm not optimistic that it will solve the problem.

Okay, looks like it's not the BOINC level. I had a Pentium M way back. The problem was way back too as best as I can recall. It might be tied in to going too long without a recycle/reboot. I take you run your machine 24/7 and normally don't go around exiting and restarting BOINC so how often do you reboot?

The Pentium M's are so slow that they have to run 24/7 in order to produce decent results. laughing To answer your question, those machines get rebooted about once a week on average. They only have a problem with HPF2 and it's only about 1 HPF2 WU out of 10 that gets stuck. Well, there were also all those CEP problems a few months ago, but a lot of people had those and the CEP problems got fixed.

Other people have reported the stuck HPF2 WU problem over the years and the only solution has been to bounce BOINC. Fortunately, there are plenty of other projects to crunch.

Yea, I remember that a really good day was when I had anything over 1500 points that day (1200 was just plain good). I normally try to reboot and defrag on a weekly basis. It can't be hurting but I can't guarantee that it's not helping avoid problems either. biggrin The problem may be specific to Pentium M's as it's been longer than I can remember since I've run into a problem of consequence with any of the projects here. I do recall running into cases where a WU would have an abnormally high runtime but something else would have had to flag that I had a problem. I do recall figuring out that a restart of BOINC alone would fix it. What I don't recall is noticing if it was specific to any one project. Of course, back then, HPF and FAAH was about all there was.

Re: smilesmile Join "MyOnlineTeam" Today - Chapter 39 smilesmile
this has nothing to do with crunching, just a kind of philosophical question:

What are you going to do today that will make someone else's life better? (crunching doesn't count, it's a given)
