That estimate seems a tad on the high side. If you are not going to run them, you can abort them and let someone else have a crack at them.

These are interesting times. A newer computer is a 12 core Intel i7 from HP, and 10 cores were running the beta. They are all done now.

I fully expect to run them. It is the CP ones that are predicted to take 1050 hours each. The Beta_SCC1 are estimated to take 5:15:05 each and the deadline is Friday June 21, so unless the estimated time to complete is way too low, I should have no trouble running them before the deadline. I have a four-core processor so they will all be running at once, though they will not all start at the same time.

My Linux boxes pulled down plenty of these. They ran without a hitch as far as I can tell. Some are still waiting for the second result, but most are valid.
In the middle of of running these Betas, I patched and rebooted all of my Linux boxes with Ansible. I don't see any issues resulting from that, though I didn't log in to the machines to see how the checkpoint recovery went. Cheers, michael. |

My four ran in around an hour each, though they were predicted to take a little over 5 hours.

My first one was valid because there was no other required for validation. BETA_SCC1_0003336_OPN-b_A_49181 The other three were valid by the time I looked at them.

I haven't done actual testing but if the applications are the same as for the last regular tasks the Linux version must still have the vsyscall issue that was addressed in last year's beta test. That test ended without a result. By the way, as far as I know HSTB is also affected.

I am happy, that one mobile phone (HTC, Android) , wich produces nearly 80% errors at ZIKA WU, could finish all four SCC-betas. Maybe I can reactivate this little cruncher ;-)

Will the 64-bit Windows executable be pushed out for this beta test? I'd like to know if the scheduler properly knows to choose only the 64-bit executable to run the task rather than the 32-bit executable.

These seem to behave really well.
I've crunched about 30, no errors or invalids. They seem to checkpoint frequently. Haven't lost more than 4% progress (couple minutes of CPU time?) by restarting/suspending. Using 60-80 MB ram. Taking 0.5-0.75 hours (closer to the low end) usually, running 1-4 betas alongside multiple FAHB and MIP1 and HST1 threads (plus SETI GPU tasks) on Windows 10 Pro. Temperatures all stay normal. |
