Parlea@home has a new app "virtualbox" which runs under VBox as you'd expect.
~5GB download and runs for <10 minutes MT on my windows machines but errors out on my linux install that works for other tasks e.g. LHC. |

The tasks use all available cpu cores you have set in Boinc, so since I have 50% set on this laptop they are using 8 cpu cores for each task, no way to change that on the website at the moment, but are running very cool. It looks like working set size is about 1.86gb of memory and virtual memory is about 82.35mb of memory. Run time for me is about 7.5 minutes per task. |

They run just fine on 1 CPU
Create a app_config.xml file with this content:
<app_config>
<app_version>
<app_name>virtualbox</app_name>
<plan_class>vbox64_mt</plan_class>
<avg_ncpus>1</avg_ncpus>
</app_version>
</app_config> |

Runs okay on all 20 cores on my 1 laptop ...

Runs ok for me in Win10 32core system. Uses about 6c CPU usage with about 1.9GB memory according to BOINC. VBox v6.1.12. 220-235sec run time. |

Yes but you are wasting a lot of CPU time.
with 20 cores cpu time should be close to 20 times clock time
I checked on your results, you get about 4 times. |

I tried the 1 CPU for each task, way to many errors, over 50% error rate. Went to 4 CPU Per Task & seems okay ...

That works for me too thought I also upped to 4 cpu's per task and only allowing 2 tasks at a time |

From MilkyWay@home:
Separation Project Coming To An End
Dear Volunteers,
We are beginning to sunset the Separation project (note that this is different from the N-Body project, which still needs your help!!!). Thanks to your computational contributions, we have completed the goals that we set out to accomplish with this the project, so we are going to shut down the Separation project in the near future. We are planning on submitting a paper containing the final results of the Separation project to an academic journal in the near future. It is possible that the reviewer may request revisions that involve re-running Separation data, in which case we might bring it back for a short time, but until that happens we do not need your computer time for this. We would like to sincerely thank you for all the time and effort that you spent helping us complete this substantial task. We owe the success of the project to you all.
With this announcement comes a few updates to MilkyWay@home: MilkyWay@home will continue to exist, but only as the Nbody project. Because of the complexity of running Nbody tree codes on GPUs, there is little speed-up from running Nbody on a GPU compared to an equivalent CPU. Although we did beta-test a full GPU Nbody application, we have decided not to deploy it due to concerns over maintaining its support; among other issues, supporting GPU Nbody would require changing the GPU code every time the CPU code is updated, and making sure every change is tested and works identically on both platforms. Since we are actively working on extensions of the Nbody code that include such things as the effects of the Large Magellanic Cloud's gravity and the consequences of self-interacting dark matter on the formation of tidal streams, this parallel support would be difficult. So, when Separation shuts down, we will be ending GPU support for MilkyWay@home. This will have the greatest impact on people who crunch lots of Separation work units on high-end GPUs; these users can expect to earn a much lower amount of credit per time than they did before. If you contribute only CPU cycles, your ability to earn credit will be unaffected. We still want as many people to contribute CPU time to MilkyWay@home as possible! However, we understand that if your goal is to use GPUs to obtain a large amount of credit quickly, there are more efficient ways to do this and other projects that can better use your resources.
We would appreciate your input on this because we expect that it will probably take some time for GPU-oriented users to swap that hardware over to different projects. How long would you like us to wait before we shut down Separation?
Again, thank you so much for letting us use your processors! They have not only increased our knowledge of the Milky Way galaxy that we live in, but they have also contributed to five PhD theses and trained dozens of undergraduate students to build and maintain large and complex computing systems. These students and I thank you for your contributions. We will be posting the results of the final Separation project results probably later this year, after they have gone through the peer review process (which takes about six months on average, with wide variability).
Best,
Tom & Prof. Newberg

Posted in the TBrada message boards yesterday:
My colleague launched a test BOINC project from a developer.
He has problems.
If you know how the BOINC project works, please help a colleague.
I created a topic on the project forum
https://boinc.termit.me/adsl/forum_thread.php?id=2&postid=2
Registration on the site is free.
I was able to create an account for me and also create my Team as well, they have only sent out a total of 10 tasks, cpu and Windows only at least so far, so they are in the very beginning stages of becoming a new Boinc Project. |

I was able to join but not create my Team ... Tried again & created my Team ...

Website is back up.
I was able to register my account, but the Feeder is NOT running so you can't attach any computers until it's running again.

The application Virtual Machine with 4 GB available memory from project prediction is active
Anybody have a link to this project, I must have run it years ago because I have Hr's for it but can't find any links to it in my saved files ... Thanks

Still in alpha and need invite code to join.
They seem to have completely started over as my old user and team info are gone. |
