Golly, gee whiz ... one more of mine validated.
----------------------------------------Not sure why these long-running A wu's need a quorum of 2 but then, unlike many other DC projects, WCG scientists aways seem to need to wear a belt and suspenders (that would be a belt and braces in the UK ). Maybe they get a kickback from the Warden of the PV jail. |

On a core i7 950 W7, 12GB DDR3 1600Mhz, overclocked to 3.5 Ghz 39.93 hours
----------------------------------------200k computers and 2000 tasks means... 2000 tasks / 200000 computers = 0.01 task per computer... I see that I have been very lucky to get one. I will come back to DDDT2 in a few weeks. |

200,000 is the number of devices that had a result in the past 30-60 days. On a daily basis that device hit count is not close, several tens of thousands.
----------------------------------------If you got the DDDT2 job without the prevalent trick box applied as with Beta, then indeed you were more than a little lucky. Then, the techs fed the first 2000 spread over a longer time frame so there were A types in the pipe for quite a long time. Then with 10 planets returning multiple results a day, one of your devices talked surely to the feeders to get some backfill. edit: To think that the % of those active having the new project auto-opt in selected, and the odds got on an individual bases quite a bit bigger, for farm owners in particular.

My I7 920 OC'd to 3.6 GHz with 6GB of DDR3-1600 took between 39.14 and 41.54 hours to complete. I do play a lot of games on this computer such as Left 4 Dead 2.
----------------------------------------These are the three WUs still in PV jail. erlc_ c139_ ps0000_ 0-- erlc_ c132_ ps0000_ 0-- erlc_ d175_ ps0000_ 1-- |

But I have the 'Panic-Button' game again- now each Rice WU is shown with 13 hours to go and two Rice threads switched immediatly to high priority. Time for a badge as compensation. |

I guess, I am pretty lucky, except these two, all are validated...
erlc_ c182_ ps0000_ 1-- Pending Validation 19.02.10 05:38:44 26.02.10 18:12:07 85.53 746.5 / 0.0 erlc_ a214_ ps0000_ 0-- Pending Validation 18.02.10 06:42:11 21.02.10 09:53:02 31.72 573.3 / 0.0 Any news about the Type B and C work units? Is there a forecast, when they could be sent out? |

Mathilde2006, although I don't know as to how many/what types and what the deadlines are on the WU's you got (nor indeed, how many cores you've got available on that machine which keeps going into panic mode), you might like to consider using the method which I used. Basically that's to selectively suspend certain WU's, thus allowing others to complete in 1 go.
----------------------------------------Thus, you could process all of your DDDT2 jobs and get them out of the way - thereby inflating the RICE WU's you've got to their max (but as they're suspended, this wouldn't throw BOINC into panic mode), or the other way around - i.e. get all the RICE jobs out of the way, clearing the way for the DDDT2 jobs to complete. Of course, you'd have to keep an eye on your BOINC session so as to 'juggle' the WU's/return them etc., although if everytime BOINC hits the panic button and unloads a DDDT2 job, there is potentially a loss of over 1 hr of processing time - due to the very long time in between DDDT2 checkpoints. |

No loss with the LAIM option until you log out/restart/Windows Update.... I allready canceled Rice WUs - deadline in 48 hours. They'll all finish in less than 24 hours using four threads. The other four threads are crunching the last four DDDT2 WUs - also ~85 hours needed- estimated at download time were 45 hours. |

No loss with the LAIM option until you log out/restart/Windows Update.... The log out bit is not correct [when you've installed BOINC in service/protected mode.] Then boinc.exe and the science applications will stay as were you signed in. This allows changing user sign in sessions without crunching penalty. For the other issues old saying is: Who takes a seat on the oven will sit on the blisters. Much of what's read here is man made and some for longer standing insufficiencies/deficiencies of the BOINC client. Some will probably be fixed when I start my next live. Known for years.
