Hi I currently have 4 Python tasks sitting on 99.XXX% complete. Two have failed to be completed by the deadline. Should I abort them or let them be? Will I get any credit for completion? RAM usage is around 5GB. This doesn't seem right. I have 32GB in my system. Only allowing 25% usage of the CPU. One task has completed around 25%, but has been "postponed". Why? |

Hi You have hit both the major problems, since you are on Linux. The ones that never completer are the so-called "0 CPU" ones. You may abort them immediately. They can be easily spotted in the first five minutes using BoincTasks, which shows the CPU usage. The second problem is the "Vm job unmanageable" problem, and is more or less only seen on Linux. There is no solution, except to wait for 24 hours or reboot the machine. It does not show up on Windows, at least if you use VirtualBox 5.2.44. Search for it on this forum; it has to do with the COM interface. |

Many thanks. I have aborted those 4 tasks. |
