Does the app checkpoint? With the really long runtimes, it's important to have. Reno, NV Team: SETI.USA |

Yes it does. And you are right, it's definitely important to have. Do you feel it's not checkpointing often enough? |

Thanks! I just wasn't sure, and so I have never quit BOINC yet. I needed to do some system updates. Reno, NV Team: SETI.USA |

Yes, I think the checkpoints are too distant. At one of my newer hosts I need up to an hour to reach the next checkpoint. It's not necessary to have a checkpoint every minute or so, but It would be fine to have one every 15 Minutes. Regards Odi |

Ok. I can see how some of the longer running work units might need to checkpoint more often. I will get that implemented in the next several days. Thanks! |
