That should still be noted in system requirements.

Thank you very much Uplinger for changing the requirements.
I'm completely OK with larger memory consumption, but it should be stated as far as I had no idea at the beginning of TS what could be going on.

Keep on with great work!

When I wrote in my first reply that there were several topics already there, before Randzo posted, that was to indicate that these 'bigger' memory using tasks [specifically batches that have the 4AOD and 4AOE monikers) ARE in circulation, so why asking to offer them to the community?

In general, whatever uplinger meant to convey and Randzo thanked for, the OP noted the spec was 250MB -AND- it still is, but 4AOD and 4AOE can run up to 578MB RAM using models, on top there being VM [that's the biggest my BOINCTasks logged]. The only concern I have is that these 2 specific targets go to Android devices, but, I'm entirely unclear if SN2S at all is going to Android devices. The same System Req. page says they are released, but there was never a launch announcement I can recollect, except for a beta and never seen Android comments of problems with SN2S in production. So are they?

For good order these big ones come and go. Since there is no method of dynamic limitation within a science at this time, the choice seems to me to either allow these to go to all devices that meet the 250MB requirement [formerly 100MB], or up the limit further, which will cut out a bunch of volunteers.

Then there's of course the comments of members aborting them because 8 biggies [I've had them going simultaneous on a 8GB device], on a 4GB system is taxing and users notice. As BOINC is supposed to work, if memory limits were set default, left default(!), some tasks would be paused automatically when the user needs the computer. If the user then chooses to set "compute while in use and allow BOINC 99% memory during use" [yes read that], then that is self-programmed trouble. The person to look hard at is the one seen in the mirror.

Extraordinary to me is, that systems [PC's] are not fitted with 1GB per thread i.e a duo having 2GB, a quad 4GB, an octo 8GB etc. Model sizes vary and they've been doing that for a very long time. If you don't have that, don't mess with the BOINC defaults and expect not to be bothered by crunching.

That was for the general readership.

I finally got around to trying BOINC on my 1st gen Kindle a little over a week ago. SN2S is the only project checked along with "If there is no work available for the project(s) I have selected above, please send me work from another project."

I have yet to see a SN2S wu. I do receive a steady supply for FAH though.
