How long does it really take to run one of these VM tasks (on a descent processor)? cmsvm_GA-p[e30-50MB_Lin64f]_1_Oryzias-latipes-(Japanese-medaka)_DG000014.lin.EMBL_RF00028_Intron_gpI_1330438623_100184_3 http://www.rnaworld.de/rnaworld/result.php?resultid=14920935 Also watched the task reach 98.765...

Just found another thread about this error, though it's not been added to for 2.5years, error - exit code 195 (0xc3) on CMSearch The pop-up window only allows me to cancel or debug the task. When the window appears the task does not progress. So when it happens overnight I loose CPU time. As the tas...

What was the solution you found?

The longer run times are a bit 'keen' given that there are no checkpoints.
Just noticed that one of my tasks still has 101h to go. Yesterday it was 103h.
That would be Boinc using the short task times to guesstimate runtime for the long tasks!
So still 4days to go, and counting...

If you free up a CPU core/thread the Heartbeat issues often go away. On the surface, this means losing a core/thread, but in reality the operating system and user apps tend to use ~10 or 20% of a core/thread. It also expedites tasks on other threads/cores and reduces failures; so overall you might a...

Sounds interesting and educational.
Hope it works out as being much more than a proof of concept project.
I'll begin by being a bit more supportive - crunch more!
I look forward to reading more about it, and having a go.

Good Luck,

Any info on this?

Thanks,

I have an E@H task at 112% (11.5h on an i7-920 @3GHz), and would like to reboot system. The time to completion is "---"; not very helpful! Would be useful to have a table of completion times on different CPUs/systems to have some idea of when it will finish. In the past I have seen some tasks over 3...

Well, thanks for giving me some of the explanations as to why these tasks fail/restart. I still think you should stop sending this and similar tasks and wait until you can repackage them before imposing such unreliability on the crunching community - Project Management is key to the success of any p...

It was solved when I aborted it! The task ran for close to 200h and then the task restarted. Caught it at 7% and put it to rest. You might want to note that this task was first sent out on the 9th Oct 2010 and was sent out again to two systems today, for the 55th time?!? Completed, validation inconc...

In particular I do not like the look of these returns, 8031019 7614 9 Oct 2010 14:24:22 UTC 28 Oct 2010...

I just disabled automatic updates and that prevented the system restarting, even though it had already downloaded and installed updates and was asking to restart.
All running tasks finished and reported - no 500h tasks
