I think your running without app_info or?

@dskagcommunity
I'm just running the app as it comes to me, I'm not sure what your question is regarding "without app_info". If there is something I'm supposed to add or change, let me know.

@SekeRob
This computer is only used for BOINC projects and the GPUs (2) are only used for Help Conquer Cancer so no conflicts on GPU time. Here's a read from a successful WU on this same GPU. Looks to me like it is even longer then the one that completed with an error, which doesn't make sense?

Thanks for your all your help.
Steve

Actually, the first log only showed part of the logged times... there's CPU time, GPU Kernel time, the time I was referring to, and overal Elapsed time [that what is credited in the stats for a successful job]. The jobs are allowed to run like 5-10 times the original estimated runtime, say 1.5 hours or so. If your task gets to that, something is [temporarily] slugging on your system, or the task is stuck in a loop, but the 1140 seconds was not suggesting that. Your stdoutdae.txt file would tell when a task was started and when the time out hit, on the wallclock.

Oddly it has disappeared from the manual as a cc_config.xml <options> tag, it though still showing as a boinc.exe command line parm, but adding

<skip_cpu_benchmarks>1</skip_cpu_benchmarks>

will indefinitely postpone benchmarking... still works for me without incurring a tag error warning. [Just in case there's no fix]. Server 700 of WCG ignores CPU benchmark information anyhow, which is what the BOINC benchmark tests every 5 days in old clients and on upgrade and boot in new clients.

We are increasing the limit for GPU workunits. The new workunits should start showing up in a couple of days.
Thanks,
