hmm.. manager set to 1 day, only 4 hours left on the 2 wu's .. and nothing is downloading ready :S ..
Ive tried a reboot ..
My laptop has enough for 8 days even on a 3 day seting :S
the minute I re-enable rosetta .. 5 tasks ..
SO although we are mid crunch, Ive let Ros run, as I don't want an unused cpu all night ..

Boinc can be a bit thick at times.
If it's the 1st time you have run the project (on that boinc install), it can get a bit mixed up with it's times, you can set to 1 day, but with Boinc's working out of how long stuff is going to take, those 4 hours (cpu time), after Boinc's working out can look like 27 hours (wall clock time)
So boinc thinks 4 = 27, cache = 24, 27-24=3, Boinc don't ask for work for another 3 hours (to keep 24 hours of work...)
It gets a bit smarter after a few days.
And of course Boinc being Boinc it can get that in reverse and send you 27 hours work, when you only wanted 4, or in your laptops case 8 days instead of 3
There is work ok, as I just got a load of Drug and cancer ones

45 credits for 5 hours?
err both of mine were in the 5 hour, and I got 113.2 & 105.2
Mind you WCG falls into my will not do work for rules.
I don't like projects that punnish slower computers.
Out of the 4 results that have credit, I have lost about 70 between 3 of them, due to the fact the credits were awarded based on the faster computer.
So why should I do work for the project, when my slower pootas get punished for being slower, they still done the same work as the faster one.

ROFL so many times I have heard that!!NaRyan wrote:You know since I gave up smoking my health has been terrible! :pukeright:
Funny thing at work at the mo - me and my mate both eat healthy cereal breakfasts, none of the others do, yet we are both ill at the moment.
Blow being healthy - I'm gonna just do what I like when I like and enjoy life!!
