It might help; I was thinking about suggesting it.

I don't think that limiting the number of concurrent CEP2 WU's is going to help... I had just one running on my quad-core yesterday with 3 c4cw WU's, and the CEP2 WU still got shorted, exactly as all others have for me for the last few weeks. Also, before this problem started, there were plenty of times I was running 4 at once on the quad core, and got perfectly acceptable CPU times reported.

Plz understand that the limiting of concurrent CEP2 tasks was not to imply that the 'big' time losses would be erased with that. That's an issue to be resolved before an all supported platforms release is put in production. The concurrency limiting is to further reduce any of the inefficiency due the large disk I/O the more running the more bottlenecking. On my quad running 2 or 4 makes a difference of > 10 minutes per task

Just a note to say that when I suspended one of these tasks, it immediately errored out:

Yikes, here's the log for a CEP2 job that came up "valid." Look at how many times it encountered some kind of problem during job #2 and started job 2 over again, resetting the CPU time every time. It ended up with 6.2 hrs CPU time, but must have spent more than that on job #2 alone. (This is on a "reliable machine" that has been crunching nearly 24/7 since Feb.)
----------------------------------------I'm going to stop crunching CEP2 for a while. I look forward to participating in its next Linux beta and rejoining when there's a better-running version.

Well that is a novel one drawing attention. **
----------------------------------------[17:30:20] Qink name = scfman Parent was killed, exiting [17:33:48] Number of jobs = 16 [17:33:48] Starting job 2,CPU time has been restored to 345.950000. Wondered what caused this? Interested in the Linux Event Log and the stdoutdae.txt and stderrdae.txt logs from around your time segment when that happened. Meantime, I've just set the Swapfile use of the client to zero (0). Done that in past under Windows 7, to be more precise, disabled Swapfile in the OS, and only once saw an out of memory condition. Hoping something changes (for the better of course ;-). There are concurrent 2 CEP2 running and 2 HCMD2 (those memory use mini's). Edit: ** something nagging and sure enough, I posted the very thing on October 5: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/...29985&offset=0#297929, but it occurred only once during the run and may have been playing with the system to cause this. It's the only other post showing this.

Here's a portion of the stdoutae.txt. I don't seem to have a stderrae.txt. My Internet service provider was having trouble that evening. It looks as if every time BOINC made an unsuccessful effort to contact the internet, the running jobs had problems.

Good info... long history with BOINC and jobs resetting and or crashing completely when the internet goes. Was the BOINC Manager loaded at the time? I've a long standing practice of closing this sucker... a quick in and out, but never left to sit on panel or in icon tray (notification area, which anyway is not a feature available on Linux for BOINC). If there is security software, check that out too. I'm still on the GetDeb 6.10.58 64 bit version. I'm on scheduled networking for a long time and if you know WCG or ISP is off on a maint trip, I always take the client off-line so it does not waste time trying to knock it's head through the closed door.

Meantime, I've just set the Swapfile use of the client to zero (0). Done that in past under Windows 7, to be more precise, disabled Swapfile in the OS, and only once saw an out of memory condition. Hoping something changes (for the better of course ;-). There are concurrent 2 CEP2 running and 2 HCMD2 (those memory use mini's) After some half dozen ran mostly in "left alone" mode, the hard conclusion is that the gaps between 'elapsed' and CPU time increased. Now THAT's puzzling.

BOINC Manager was mostly closed during that period -- open only when I sometimes peeked to see how things were progressing. Interesting to learn that BOINC jobs tend to have problems with the Internet is out. I'll take mine offline in future at times when I know there are Internet isues. |
