Found one task on my server, http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/result.php?resultid=13633161

28k points. (WTF)

6 days and 6 hours runtime. :O

Didn´t guessed that I got some decic tasks.

It could be worse. zombie finished it the day after you did. He got it before you and finished it after. His machine spent 1.5 million seconds working in.

My two active ones are still running. Both in the mid 50's of completion with 25 days of runtime. Both have two wingmen. One of my wingmen aborted his after 1.5 million seconds.

You mean http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/workunit.php?wuid=12351121 and http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/workunit.php?wuid=12350747.

Over 25 days? Which you got luck by completing them. Bounded tasks are not available, I´ll switch to decic tasks right now.

EDIT:
I haveone task running on my server. 369 hours runtime, http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/workunit.php?wuid=12310752

He's lucky. I'm celebrating, because my Christmas Eve task (WU 12347065) - wu_Qsqrt421_DS1x5_CV2_S815_N2_-55_N1_-518to462 - has just reached positive territory.

          N1 = 5.

26 days, 53.346% progress - and counting.

(pssst - I think it might be starting to speed up)

I just had a long one finish so here is my current status on i7-2700k/stock

wu_Qsqrt421_DS1x5_CV2_S815_N2_-61_N1_-613to551 53% after 28d03h. Two Wingmen running.

I am currently set at "no new tasks" until I can look up the config setting to limit my machines to 2 work units. I can absorb a couple with incorrect estimates but having it too many would confuse boinc too much.

How do the "DS1x5" work units map onto http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/batch_status.html?

How do the "DS1x5" work units map onto http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/batch_status.html?


Thanks for the update!

I'm still getting caught up after my 2 week hiatus, so haven't had a chance yet to reassess the status of this special search. Right now, there is no mapping to the batch status. Originally it was hoped this search would be relatively quick and would not need a status table, but I guess that is not the case. Hopefully I will have some time this weekend to add such a table.

The pattern on these WUs I've noticed is that they speed up at around 62-63%, once they've hit that percentage they using complete within 24hrs.

http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields//workunit.php?wuid=12351452

I have just completed this Work Unit, after 2,366,625 secs (27.39 days) I get: "Completed, too late to validate" and zero credit :(
It ran 24/7 since the day I got it.

Edit:
Is it because one above had already been completed that I got no credit? Because I've now notice that so has this one http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields//workunit.php?wuid=12348078 that I'm currently 27 days into crunching, shall I just abort it as it's already been completed? shame about my 27 days wasted on it however :(

No worries. I went ahead and granted you the canonical credit on both WUs. You can abort the one still running; it sounds like it should be close to finishing but no reason to waste the cpu cycles.

To answer your question... yes, someone returned the WU before you. It looks like it had originally timed out for them, the WU was reissued to you, and then they returned it after you had started it. When that happens, you won't get credit unless you return it within the grace period (which is hard to do with these really long WUs).

Thank you very much.

I have found another one http://numberfields.asu.edu/NumberFields/workunit.php?wuid=12404933 which someone else has already completed, I'm 2 weeks into this but if the grace period is 10 days after the expiry I should be OK.

I still have another 3 long ones, 2 at around 30 days, one at 40 days, so far no one else has completed them but I'll give you a shout if they do if that's OK.

It has recently come to my attention that the Qsqrt421 cases suffer from the same problem that the Bounded app did a couple weeks ago. I am currently looking into a similar fix for these WUs.

The stderr for this WU looks particularly bad. I suspect it could take at least another 6 days to finish. I wont feel bad if you decide to kill it. Either way I will get you manual credit for the lost CPU cycles.

If anyone else has one of these bad WUs please report, either by message board or private message, so I can try and remove them from the system.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

I have 2 of these WUs running at the moment. One at 271 hours and the other at 385 hours. Leave them run?

No one else has returned them yet, so I would say let them continue, especially given the amount of time you have already spent on them.

Thanks!

Someone has returned a result that was validated on the first of the two work units, so you might just as well abort it and crunch some work unit that has not yet been solved. The other one has not been solved yet, so you can continue on that one.

After 44 days my last long running wu (task #13680649) ended up in a computation error. :-(
On the day before I saw the wu stopping for a few times without any reason.
