61) Message boards : Number crunching : Why are finished tasks deleted so fast? (Message 51133) Posted 20 Sep 2011 by banditwolf Post: It was an easy fix to keep server load down at times in the past couple years and was left this way. I don't think it is needed as much now but it is still in place.
62) Message boards : Number crunching : Donating to Milkyway@Home (Message 50996) Posted 9 Sep 2011 by banditwolf Post: The last post is still 4 months old and that wasn't really an update. Only stating a paper is being done. I think everyone would like a real update.
63) Message boards : Number crunching : Looooong WU time (Message 50991) Posted 8 Sep 2011 by banditwolf Post: The Nbody estimates are waaayyyyy off. I get 5-600 hours estimate and they complete in 20 min to 40 hours. No way to tell aside from running the tasks.
64) Message boards : Number crunching : Missing credits (Message 50988) Posted 8 Sep 2011 by banditwolf Post: Hi forum, Thanks for the replies. Banditwolf Post 1 - I don't know how to check if results are valid. The machine processes the files and after the estimated time (more or less) they are "ready to upload" and uploaded. Check on this site. Go to "My Account", then "tasks". Refresh the page as soon as the task is uploaded. You only have a few seconds before the task is deleted. Post 2 - I think the version I'm running is from the Berkeley site as the previous version kept losing the BOINC taskbar (not the Project task bar). I've just checked - version is 6.10.59 / wxWidgets version 2.8.11 That is a Boinc version, not a MW app version. Did you install another app or are you using the one downloaded from MW? Why does Einstein run without any problem ? This seems to be a MW only problem.
65) Message boards : Number crunching : Missing credits (Message 50978) Posted 7 Sep 2011 by banditwolf Post: You are getting all "Validate error". Are you using any optimized app? MilkyWay@Home Anonymous platform (CPU) None of those are still valid. You must use the stock app.

68) Message boards : Number crunching : Credit Discrepancies? (Message 50590) Posted 7 Aug 2011 by banditwolf Post: It could be a split ID of sorts. Did you change any user names?
69) Message boards : Number crunching : assimilators not running (Message 50547) Posted 5 Aug 2011 by banditwolf Post: I have a problem: i've sent 13 Wus,but assimilator have not received anyone; so I can't obtain new Wus. Are you sure? The results are purged within seconds, and Boincstats shows you have gained 8500 points in the last day. The other possibility is ghost wus. (where it thinks you have wus but don't)
70) Message boards : Number crunching : All WUs crunched & errored out (Message 50543) Posted 5 Aug 2011 by banditwolf Post: Some wu's have been running too long, look for a thread on that. Looking at your results you do seem to be running ok now.
71) Message boards : Number crunching : Bad host (Message 50541) Posted 5 Aug 2011 by banditwolf Post: These again, pulled from other list, probably more: http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/results.php?hostid=116123 error http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/results.php?hostid=161066 error http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/results.php?hostid=25952 error http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/show_host_detail.php?hostid=141268 timed out http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/results.php?hostid=171756 error http://milkyway.cs.rpi.edu/milkyway/results.php?hostid=283698 error

74) Message boards : Number crunching : No cache limit for CPU app??? (Message 50416) Posted 27 Jul 2011 by banditwolf Post: Is there no cache limit in effect for the CPU app - or is this just a bug? Yes, it is the same for all users - CPU or GPU. That person likely doesn't have 2700 tasks on their computer. They are all timing out. 0 valid, 0 invalid, 123 timed out, 2500+ in progress 7-9-11 was the only day of credit.

Yes, it is the same for all users - CPU or GPU. That person likely doesn't have 2700 tasks on their computer. They are all timing out. Some users have had the limit of 10000 tasks. Read the "Questionable Cruncher" threads for a little more info.
76) Message boards : News : Make-Up Credits to Run Wednesday and Thursday (Message 50300) Posted 20 Jul 2011 by banditwolf Post: I've had them from 4-15 hours. Rather random at times. Also the assimilator still seems stuck. (or stuck again)

79) Message boards : News : DOUBLE CREDITS Fundraiser - Request for Funding for MilkyWay@home (Message 50102) Posted 15 Jul 2011 by banditwolf Post: Chris! The main issue here is not the credit it self. It is all about that the staff must learn to stand by their own words & promises (Beyond had a beter expression for this:) ) and it seams to be sorted out now. That's true. And if one takes a closer look on other promises (screensaver coming soon) and other projects (dna@home) I assume the double credit days will be in septober or ocvember. ;) Ahh... but what year??
80) Message boards : News : DOUBLE CREDITS Fundraiser - Request for Funding for MilkyWay@home (Message 50085) Posted 14 Jul 2011 by banditwolf Post: So does this mean the 2 days of double credit are still going to happen or is this instead of those?
