1)I don't know if this was not mentioned early, but the progres counting don't work well.
6 min ... 1.020%
24 min ... 1.041% (8:21:56 to completion)
40 min ... 1.042% (8:38:22 to completion)
1:09:30 ... completion
(I saw this also with 5.22)

2)More memory need?
12/06/2006 09:42:53|ralph@home|Message from server: Your computer has only 402116608 bytes of memory; workunit requires 97883392 more bytes


I think there is no need for more momory -:)
Jobs are finishing OK, w/o any errors, in normal run time !

What is need is to "fix" this misleading message on both: (ralph and rosetta)

ps: I had sucessfully run rosetta with 64 MB RAM
*Only with that low ram I get about 70 page faults by second

but I am getting above message on PCs with 256 MB physical RAM -:(

Yeah !
Really this %done indicator is not working smooth

ps: on rosetta too,
I had already aborted a WU by hand, cause this;I believed that it was stuck -:(
It was with about 3 hours cpu time, at 1.00n%

My preference run time is 2 hours, and boincview was prediting 190 hours
of cpu time to completion -;

ps: I really dont want to run a single job by 190 Hours :!:

Thanks

I think Ralph needs to work on the Progress bar area of the program. I went thur no problems, It was the first time I saw that from this project is all. so I thought I would say something but if that is normal then nothing to worry about.

is this WU a troubled wu? FRA_t301_hom001_1_LOOPRLX_IGNORE_THE_REST__hom001_1_1bwzA__100_701_23_0
I have left it running now for 1:34:10 and it is only at 1.623% and finish time is up to 3333:00:01 now and still climbing

the progress indicator isn't linear. What you'll see are jumps in percetage. All WUs start at 1% and slowly proceed higher until one model is done. Then it jumps to another percentage and the points to the right of the decimal slowly proceed again until the next model is done. I.E you might see this if you checked the status every 10 min: 1.000, 1.0001, 1.0002, 1.003, 12.000, 12.001, 12.002, 12.003, 24.000, 24.001 etc etc until the time runs out where it jumps to 100%, uploads and reports.

The number of models depends on protein size, and puter speeds (for the most part). Every WU will run atleast ONE model regardless of time (except where terminated by "watchdog timer").

does this help?

tony

yes and watchdog did terminate that Wu on this computer,

<core_client_version>5.4.9</core_client_version>
<stderr_txt>
# random seed: 2998884

BOINC :: Watchdog shutting down...
BOINC :: BOINC support services shutting down...

</stderr_txt>
is the results of it.
and this is computer so I do not know if this will help in the project
