hi rob, when did this work unit get delivered? when the task takes 10+ hours just to download I would usually abort them. i do not let them continue. Note: The ones that take 10+hours are the ones with (AP) or (CUDA) in the name. those are the only ones i abort when they tried to download. You have been receiving work recently - how long have those tasks taken to get through those ones come through fast, usually within a few seconds, they would already be processing before i even notice they were downloaded. but they take like 4 to 5 hours before finished processing. (seems slow for a dual core processor even if it is an AMD cpu) i can see 1 hour, maybe 2 for those ones. but 4 or 5 hours seem a bit long. Thats why I suspect BOINC or seti@home needs some changes in the settings. when i suggested edits to boinc and seti@home, i was meaning for the preferences like cpu settings, processor settings etc for a dual core. not actual program code enhancements.

The question was "WHEN" not "how long did it take". If, as I explained earlier the attempted delivery coincided with a server being shut down then that would explain everything. Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

The question was "WHEN" not "how long did it take". Sorry Rob you must have misunderstood. I assumed you seen the list of my tasks, and seen that they were aborted. i only accepted the other tasks that seemed to download right away. so I manually "aborted" all the AstroPulse v7 v7.03 (sse), and SETI@home v7 v7.00 (cuda22) tasks that were being sent to me. it had nothing to due with a possible server being shut down. as i was receiving the tasks, I just didnt believe how long they were taking, so i suspended then aborted the tasks whenever they tried to start downloading.

Since the original question Please explain this wuwas answered in this post. (thank you) I will make a new post to try to get this optimized. |
