Metalsmith: More detail will be needed to help with your question.

I see you are running on a Mac.

Dual 2.33 GHz G5 6Gig RAM

Where are you looking for an indication it is running? Is that the status shown in the BOINC Manager tasks tab? Or the status shown by the Mac OS?

Activity monitor shows SETI burning up both processdors whilst Rosetta is using 0 cycles. In BOINC Manager the % goes up to a certian amount 64% or whatever, and then just stayse there even though the manager states that it is running.

How do you know it is doing nothing?

just a wild guess after observing the same <less than an hour> completion time posted for two days.

Is Mac OS showing the Rosetta task with a zero CPU %? Or is BOINC Manager showing the same CPU time?

Unfortunately, we can't label the new app plain "rosetta" because we need to keep the name of the stable app "rosetta". But I agree, maybe "rosetta_new" would be a better name than "rosetta_beta"... I'll talk to David K. about this.

Hi Rhiju

I've just noticed the new 5.70 tasks show as 'rosetta beta 5.70' in Boinc Manager & BoincView - i'm sure that will confuse some people so it's probably worth changing that label if you can!
