(1) Progress meter is not updating in my Boinc Manager window, on either system (one running XP SP 2, the other running Windows 7 SP 1). (2) 4 tasks have finished early, 300 - 830 cpu sec - while 4 others are continuing in progress well beyond that as I expect they should. All 4 early tasks list as validated (min quorum=1 though) but also reported memory leaks to stderr. If the leaks were real, they seem not to have persisted. My system monitor shows no indication of orphaned memory or of memory growth tagged to any process. ID: 4 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Most completed tasks finished in only a few minutes, which seems wrong (not consistent with what I see on the WU lists for your computers), and a minority take several hours, which seems right. 2. Aborted task 8174 after around 10 hrs run time, BOINC manager displaying "---" for the "Remaining" time on that task where it had been stuck for awhile. Lack of progress meter working makes interpretation of where the process is at dicey. Don't know if solution truly hung or endless-looping, or maybe the estimation algorithm for remaining time had a problem. This is the only task I have seen that behavior on so far.

Aborted that one. Memory leaks in all other completed tasks... Looks you've got some work to do, but that's normal with the start of a new project :) ID: 6 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
