21) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Report \"stuck at 1%\" bugs here (Message 300) Posted 19 Feb 2006 by David@home Post: I have a RALPH WU stuck at 1% after 37 minutes of CPU time. I have currently suspended the project so it is left in memory. Is there anything the devs would like me to do to check this out further or should I just abort it and post the link to the result file?
22) Message boards : Current tests : CPU Run Time preference (Message 208) Posted 18 Feb 2006 by David@home Post: Have I understood this discussion correctly? If I download WUs as before they will run a prediction and then end after a varaiable amount of time and return the results. If I set the CPU run time preference it will run sufficient predictions on the same WU to process up to that amount of time (Einstein runs different calculations on the same data, but does not have a time limit). If so what happens to the partial result? I.e. if I set it to 2 hours then I assume the work that is cut off at 2 hours will only be a partial result. Is this prediction ignored? I believe the leave resdient in memory issue is fixed (from the other thread) so is this the only item currently worth testing on RALPH? I.e. should we all set such a CPU limit?
23) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Preferences across projects (Message 198) Posted 18 Feb 2006 by David@home Post: Ralph started out with only the defaults and no separate venues, so if you edit those, they go everywhere. Understood, but my other projects were assigned to a set of general preferences for home location and not the defaults. My general home location settings were erased on the other projects when I joined RALPH, is that due to the item you refer to above: Ralph started out with only the defaults and no separate venues? No major issue as I figured it out in time before my cache emptied.
24) Message boards : RALPH@home bug list : Preferences across projects (Message 162) Posted 17 Feb 2006 by David@home Post: Not sure where this fits, but I observed this when I joined RALPH@home. The general preferences from RALPH@home were applied to all projects. My setting for connect to "network about every" got reset to 0.1 days (the default in RALPH) and my cache almost ran out of work as RALPH had no work available and the other projects drained the cache to get down to the 0.1 days setting. Also, but I am not 100% sure that my separate preferences for home vanished. I thought that my default location was set to home. Memory fades so I am not 100% sure but I thought I had a set of preferences for location home. More a BOINC issue than a Rosetta issue but I thought it worth mentioning.
