Two WU displayed time of completion as done but percentage of completion shows 000% completion. I have aborted these WU's what gives?

I had one of those too. Although the percentage of progress never advanced above 0%, the time to completion counted down normally and the completed WU valided just fine. So it seems to be just a glitch.

My latest one is the same it is up to 7 hours but the "to completion" has gone to nothing but the elapsed is still going up. if I look at it with Boinctasks it shows 100.669 complete so it looks like a wasted 7 hours. I am definitly not pleased and I will abort any in future much earlier in fact I will detach and try something else

i decided to stay and they worked ok yesterday

but the latest ones are showing no progress so I do not want to waste 7 hours so how long should i have them running before aborting them? 10 minutes seems to be ok

All I can say is that I've crunched 4 of them now and they all went just fine.
