A second WU of this project in parallel will be a waste of resources. Grüße vom Sänger ID: 81 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

So this project analyzes data for other workunits on my own host? Yes, it analyses deadlines, WU-size, RAM-use, Checkpointing intervals afaik and can see in the results page. It doesn't look in the computation innards of the WU, just formalities. Grüße vom Sänger ID: 94 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Is the collected data lost or is there a way to send back the results earlier? - Poot ID: 95 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Data are written on the hard disk as and when they are collected. Data won't be lost if you restart BOINC or your system. ID: 96 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
