It seems a lot of the GPU tasks I get just seem to loop. The run until approx. 18 minutes left then slowly go back to the original running time then count down to zero again, only to do the same thing when it gets around 18 mins left. Are these tasks actually working?
The tasks are usually listed as SETI@home v7 7.03 (opend_ati_cat132). Currently running version 7.2.42 (x64) Widgets Version 2.8.10.
Normally I let the task run a couple of cycles then end up aborting them.
Can anyone help tell me if these are 1. running correctly and 2. should I abort them if looping?
