This task errored out.

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/result.php?resultid=3293594492

Anyway, it became 8 seconds short of 4 hours 30 minutes in Boinc Manager and SMV says 3 hours 23 minutes 11 seconds.

But apparently the task continued running when reaching 100.000 % and ran for a couple of seconds more before ending up in a computation error.

CUDA was being enabled at the time of running, but I was just coming returning back to the PC at that moment.

What happened here?

Quite simple:
Exit status 194 (0xc2) EXIT_ABORTED_BY_CLIENT


This CPU task was aborted, by a user who is currently serving a ban...

No, the CPU task completed, didn't exit properly, then was aborted by the CLIENT, if it was aborted by the user it would say aborted by GUI.

You are probably correct here, Claggy.

Thanks for that.

It reminds me that I now have more than 5.3 million in total credit.

But the question is then how much of a result has ever been obtained by these
.vlar tasks compared to some others, including those who carry out the gaussian search.

Probably not much before checking out further. I may do so a little later on.
