1) Message boards : Number crunching : Problems with Rosetta version 5.85 (or 5.86 for linux) (Message 49443)

Recently (in the past 12? hours) I've only gotten WUs like this one: 113612147 for my computer.

These WUs consume 1.2 GB virtual memory a piece, which virtually exhausts the availiable VM on my system.

Is this a bug in the v5.85 of the software, is it just these WUs that are that memory-intensive?

In any case, why isn't BOINC/Rosetta respecting the settings I've made in my profile and in the Boinc Manager with regards to memory use? It clearly states there that it should not use more than 50% of memory and 50% of swap space. This should allow one such workunit to run at a time, leaving the second core idle - if the software actually respected the limitations, that is.

With two workunits like these running I don't have the memory capacity left to run the applications I need to, which means I need to suspend the project for most of the time.
