Hi
One of tasks that my machine is crunching (or at last trying to crunch) looks damaged: de_nbody_orbit_fitting_11_06_2024_v186_OCS_no_vlos__data__7_1734097922_289317
After 1d8h it stuck at 1.430% and estimated remaining time is only growing (now... 91 days!, while other task takes about 48h).
Of course, task is past the report time...
PS. If this forum is not right place for this report, please redirect me to right place:)

It's likely stuck, if you see a task like that in the future, restart BOINC (or the entire computer). Do you allow 100% of CPU time? If not, this is often the reason, why Milkyway tasks get stuck.

Restarting BOINC helped, task is progressing now. I have 100% of CPU time for all cores set, so probably something else could have been the cause.
Anyway, thank you very much:)
