5) Message boards : Number crunching : Problems with Minirosetta Version 1.71 (Message 61586) Posted 5 Jun 2009 by Toby Broom Post: Wow... My guess is that HyperThreathing is enabled which might cause a few problems with BOINC. Also, after going thru your PCs specs, I think this PC in particular has 4GB of RAM. Considering R@H uses ~0.25GB and the other do so as well... 2GB are used up by BOINC ONLY. Take away another 1GB by Windows... then another 1GB by some other application and your RAM is gone... The PC doesn't have HyperThreathing, it's a Xeon so there is 2 Quad core chips in the motherboard. The PC is dedicated to BOINC so there isn't any other applications running, after adjusting the memory settings for BOINC it's seems happier, still only using 66% of total ram.

Expect BOINC to divide the allowed swap space equally among all the BOINC projects it's been told to connect to, before deciding how much to allocate to each workunit. Therefore, some BOINC projects can run short of swap space, while others aren't using all they're allocated. 2. Allow BOINC to use a higher percentage of the swap space, since BOINC is probably all you're running on that machine that needs much swap space, and Vista will base the total size of the swap space on how much of it is used. Just to report back, 1. didn't seem to work, 2. seems to have fixed the problems :)

I'll keep an eye out for some more ram, the 8 core machines can take 8Gb easy. I upped the 10GB of disk space and see how it goes, if it doesn't drop the error rate then I'll do the swap. The older Xeons don't have hyper treading so no worries there.
8) Message boards : Number crunching : Problems with Minirosetta Version 1.71 (Message 61482) Posted 31 May 2009 by Toby Broom Post: Hi Rob, The systems that are having problems are Xeon 54xx's, both dual processor sytems without hypertreading, so the 8 cores is real. The systems use 2-3Gb of ram and have 4Gb There set to the default of 10Gb space The 1.71 seems to be less reliable but I have just upgraded to BOINC 6.6.28? See here: 1060278 941259

10) Message boards : Number crunching : Problems with Rosetta version 5.98 (Message 57002) Posted 16 Nov 2008 by Toby Broom Post: I have a computer running Windows Server 2008 Core. This edition of windows doesn't include opengl.dll, this is causing failed workunits on my computer. As I run BOINC as a service I assumed that the opengl.dll was only used for the screensaver and hence wouldn't be needed.
