I have a WU that seems to be in error MilkyWay@Home N-Body Simulation v0.66 (mt) using 3 cores at 3.2 Ghz and the time to completion is increasing faster than the elapsed. Right now elapsed is 1:57:03 and to completeion is 4:15:45 and climbing, should I abort this WU? task is 18273137 wu is 14143751 |

The time estimates are pretty off so whatever time limit it tends to estimate should be better. |

The normal for these type of runs (3 CPU cores) has been 5 to 30 minutes. This one I suspended after nearly 2 hours. I figure I need to abort unless someone says differently because it almost looks like it is stuck in an infinite loop. |

I figure I need to abort unless someone says differently because it almost looks like it is stuck in an infinite loop. The actual times can vary drastically depending on the search parameters. |

One of my current tasks is going to be 25 hours. Usually they run 1-6 hours and go up to 40 hours for me. Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected? If it makes sense, DON'T do it. |
