Re: New thread for It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!...

I finally got some work to feed to me after waiting a year!
One thing I am seeing though that is disturbing is that on some of my machines, the task has been crunching for an hour now and I am still at zero percent completion. Is this going to be an issue? other machines they are advancing right along.

Anyone else seeing something similar?

Aaron

That's normal, just let them be. They will take off after a while.

It takes 20-30 minutes here to build the task setup even on the fastest [described somewhere early in the project, next month 2 years old, with long gaps at times in work supply].

Re: New thread for It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!...

I think my buckets collected 297 work units in total. So far so good with the few that have already returned.

Re: New thread for It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!...

[2cents] I think there should be a limit on how many you get like in the case of the "A" work units (2). Then we would not have to micro-manage boinc so much and more folks would get them. [/2cents]

Excellent idea. Make this 2 per core, and you have my vote. smile

Regards,
Martin

Re: New thread for It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!...

Glad I did temp change the profile back to also fetch GFAM/DSFL as idle time threatened with the backfill being very slow. This morning at 10:56AM these fillers got started. Of course, since, 77 DDDT2 arrived on the device, so that's another 12 hours covered [mix of 'p' and 's']. Have had several p's that ran a quarter of the normal time, so cache total TTC tends to yoyo.

Re: New thread for It's raining Dengue, Hallelujah!...

But if you keep trying, luck of the draw says eventually you'll find something that hasn't been committed yet, or that somebody like you has already received.


I got one this morning. Type C. This will be the seventh WU since the project stated. I got 265 work units for Phase 1, so I am frustrated at getting so few of Phase 2. I had to set up BOINC to always leave one processor idle or it does not get any. A shame to waste a processor like that.

Work units 5 and 6 were Type B.

I completely agree. I faced that last night when my heaviest cruncher had no more work to process. crying And yet I didn't want to start down the path of enabling "Send other work" because then all the other machines with that profile would start filling their hoppers too.

Instead, I chose to enable HCC units, update the single station, let it download about 105 HCC WUs (which took about two minutes), and then switch the profile back to DDDT2 only. Those 105 HCC units take about 20 hours to clear the cruncher, during which time it would download more DDDT2 units and get back to work. Or so went the theory.

This morning, I've got more DDDT2 in the queue for that machine and everything else looks good too. That was slightly more micro-managing than I thought would be necessary, but worth it. I'm not going to let an eight-core Xeon go to waste! tongue
