Hi everyone,
I want to test something with usrp running continously under normal environment. Can someone tell me the real data of how long usrp is capable of running continously.
Thanks.

Three years ago, I used to run my USRP1-based radio astronomy software for months at a time
  with no issue.

In the last year or so, I've been unable to maintain those kinds of uptimes with either USRP1 or USRP2, which I ascribe to fundamental changes in Gnu Radio, but I haven't been able to put my finger on exactly which flow-graphs will "wedge" after a few days, and which ones will keep going and going. I have one flow-graph that uses the USRP2 at low bandwidths (400Ksps or so) that seems to be able to run forever. Another, similar flowgraph, will tend to "wedge"
  after a few days.

I also have a flow-graph that uses an ALSA source and sink, and it can only run for a few
  days before "wedging".

I think the USRP *hardware and drivers* are perfectly capable of running forever, but the current Gnu Radio seems to have issues that I haven't been able to pin-point with long-running
  applications.
