Hi Jake. This is just feedback. I'm not fussed if these things don't get resolved for a while... (and I'm not looking at this message board every day)
I have a new n-body workunit de_nbody_08_05_orphan_sim_0_1413455402_59970
1) The task is showing ~8% progress after ~7.5 hours elapsed time with a remaining estimate of ~34 minutes. "Somewhat" optimistic I would say.
2) (Presumably a BOINC issue) I cannot select and copy lines from the task property window. Which makes detailed reporting a pain unless I use a screen snapshot
3) My user average statistics took a huge dive while the application was grinding away on the previous work unit I commented on. Does this average simply measure task completion - if so it's a bit simplistic.
Hope this feedback helps with some of your troubleshooting
Cheers
Chris

Hi Jake. Thanks.
In addition to the extraordinary length of time being estimated, my other "concern" is that I have no other tasks being queued. Maybe this is a function of the time estimate (?)

I only have a single task at the moment de_nbody_08_05_orphan_sim_2_ etc etc
It has been running for 28+ hours and has over 448 hours estimated remaining.
Is this the new normal??
