Time remaining growing

Hi,
I received yesterday a work unit named ZIKA_000379443_x1r6r_DENV2_capsid_NMR_18_s2_0064

The end limit to this WU is next Jan 19.
But the estimated time remaining is growing up constantly. Now this field marks 29 days and it continuies growing fast..
The WU has 12h of work made.

Another WU, ZIKA_000379480_x1r6r_DENV2_capsid_NMR_18_s2_1190, has a estimated time remaining of 5d but it is not growing so fast. This WU has 10h of work made.

And finally, decreasing now.ZIKA_000379439_x1r6r_DENV2_capsid_NMR_18_s2_0508 has 1h of work finished but the time remaining is 1h 52m and decreasing.

All of this is normal?
Must I do anything?

OpenZika 7.08
Boinc 7.4.2 (X64) standalone.
wxWidgets 3.0.1

Thank you in advance and regards,

Nicolas

Re: Time remaining growing

Is the % completed increasing?
WUs do get stuck.
When did you last restart?

Thank you for the suggestion.

Re: Time remaining growing

You may also want to add <fraction_done_exact> to your app_config.xml file. E.g.:
<app_config>
<app>
<name>zika</name>
<fraction_done_exact>1</fraction_done_exact>
</app>
<app>
<name>fahb</name>
<fraction_done_exact>1</fraction_done_exact>
</app>
<app>
<name>hst1</name>
<max_concurrent>2</max_concurrent>
<fraction_done_exact>1</fraction_done_exact>
</app>
<app>
<name>mip1</name>
<!-- needs 5 MB L3 cache per mip1 WU, use 5-10 -->
<!-- Xeon E5-, L3 Cache = -->
<max_concurrent>1</max_concurrent>
<fraction_done_exact>1</fraction_done_exact>
</app>
</app_config>
----------------------------------------

...KRI please cancel all shadow-banning

Re: Time remaining growing

Hello,

When I returned to my job, the WU marked 127d of time remaining and growing very fast.
I've restarted the pc six hours ago. All the Zika WUs restarted.

The strange WUs have 4 - 5 hours of worked time now and the remaining time is around 16-18 hours and growing. But not so fast than weekend.
Following days, if I see the WUs are unfinishable, I'll cancel them.

Another Zika WUs downloaded today have a more usual behaviour.

I'll answer to your questions and sugerences now.
.-Yes, the % time completed was increasing but very slowly.
.-I tried to add the xml file but in W10 must be more tricky than in Linux.
I'm reading manuals and faqs to add the file right or to check if the file is being loaded or not.

Thank you very much guys and happy crunching.

Nicolas

Re: Time remaining growing

I restarted the program and it corrected itself. Thanks for the suggestion.

Re: Time remaining growing

I saw forecast time remaining on a Wu at 156 days tonight! I suspended and reactivated, see later if it comes back normal.

Came down to 5 hrs after suspend and reactivation.

...and it finished in 5 and a half hours.
