This is still not available. I don't want any minis so I'll have to abort them.

It sounds like the bottom line here is that there are presently some work units that are using excessive memory. These are reported in several other threads. So this would mean your low-memory system did not happen to get any of these, or perhaps they are flagged to only be sent to systems with large memory.

This sometimes happens when the Project Team is working on new protocols. And it is generally resolved within a few days.

The only recent (16july19 by admin) is about "audacious projects". Nice, but is not a part of Boinc.

It is fabulous news, and great for Rosetta.
I think it is entirely possible that Rosetta is now the most important BOINC project there is.

As you may have heard, the Institute for Protein Design was recently selected as part of The Audacious Project. This large-scale philanthropic collaboration, which is the successor to the TED Prize, surfaces and funds projects with the potential to change the world.

As a result, we are expanding our Seattle-based team of scientists and engineers who will work together to advance Rosetta, our software for protein design and structure prediction. The funding will also allow us to invest in the equipment, supplies and lab space needed to design and test millions of synthetic proteins.

It is simple to understand, some (many) of the current robetta_08_07_xxx wu use 2 GB RAM or above. if your are "lucky" enough to process simultaneously 8 of them you will be over your 16 GB and even if boinc is configured to use no more than 95% of your available memory, you will experience slowdown and most probably wu crash or host crash or both. It is quite known problem here, investigators not always fix correctly the wu memory requirements, they are also human after all.

It has just happened to me both in a host with 64GB but with 72 threads and another one with 124GB and 112 threads. So, I've set to use the 50% of CPUs while the storm goes way :).
