I think there are just fewer people who work on Nbody because it doesn't have a GPU application (so it's much less efficient in terms of credit), so it takes longer to crunch through the backlog. It's really not a problem as far as I can tell.

Jim, I just thought I would let you know that I don't have any "Local Security Policy" on either of my Win10 machines, but it is available on all of my Win7 machines. I have set a few of them up with the info you submitted here. No luck so far.

Yes, I have Home, Desktop, Documents and Downloads all shared and I get nothing on any of my MS computers.
I know this might seem very strange and that it seems as though I have not done something right, but unless there is something on the Linux side that I have failed to enhance, I can't think of anything else I can do on the MS side.

Crucial to the success of the S5 Collaboration’s maps are data from the Gaia space mission. Compared to data from ground-based measurements, those made by the Gaia space observatory can be used to more quickly and efficiently determine whether a target star is part of a stream, because its observations are not blurred by gases in Earth’s atmosphere, Li says. “Instead of 100, we only need to examine 10 [stars]” to identify one in a stream. Gaia can also be used to measure a star’s composition and its speed in the plane of the sky, providing chemistry information for each stream and 3D velocity information for each stream member.

I can remember listening to the shortwaves back in the 70's and it was quiet as a cave back before all the modern electronics entered our lives. Every power supply was linear and quiet as can be except maybe for some slight 60Hz hum. Now all our power supplies are switched mode and splatter crap everywhere in the bands.

In August 2019, the researchers used FAST to look for HI radio emissions, and the data revealed what appeared to be a large structure. When they calculated how fast the structure was moving, they got a surprise: its velocity was consistent with a distance of around 71,750 light-years from the galactic center - the outer regions of the galaxy.

That distance - farther than any known spiral arms in that region of the galaxy - would mean the thing is absolutely huge, with a size of around 3,590 light-years in length and 675 light-years in width, based on the FAST data. But then, when the researchers combined their findings with data from the HI4PI all-sky HI survey, they found that it could be even larger still - as much as around 16,300 light-years in length.

That would make it even more colossal than the gas structure known as Gould's Belt, which was recently found to be 9,000 light-years long.

Nvidia provides a CUDA sample that looks closely related to the N-body problem.

On my computer, it is in directory:

C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\CUDA Samples\v11.4\5_Simulations

Its name is nbody.

Yes Boinc does have problems cpu and gpu scheduling and yes you can run both on the same pc with fewer problems...load up a 2nd copy of Boinc in a different directory and run one for cpu tasks and one for gpu tasks. It's not as easy as it sounds but not that difficult either.
