Hi, Is anyone else out there using the BOINC client? As related a few days ago I had problems with F@H (which Tim is using) so I installed BOINC from the repository and have been running it ever since.
As also related, I found it initially overworked my CPUs and caused serious overheating so I throttled back. For several days the 'Work done for this project' read 0 because the first Task was yet to complete. Yesterday morning I was informed that the work done was 1, as expected, but I definitely didn't expect to log in this morning and be told that the work done was now 762! I've opened the Help, but the Views shown see https://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/ Simple_view[1] do not match what I get and the Help is not particularly helpful. In particular I can't find anything that explains what the Work done number actually means. Here (http://hadrian-way.co.uk/Misc/[2]) are screenshots of what my Views look like, including the remarkable change in Statistics since Friday. Can anyone shed any light on this? -- Terry Coles -------- [1] https://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Simple_view [2] http://hadrian-way.co.uk/Misc/ -- Next meeting: BEC, Bournemouth, Tuesday, post-lurgi 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
