Don't know what you mean by: 1) John means that he's the one writing the panic mode code 2) Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the problem with a 24-hour value for 'switch every' would help DEFEAT the panic mode code. If what I remember is right, the EDF scheduler only kicks in when results are switched, i.e. at the end of the 'switch every' timer. So by going to a 24-hour value, the panic mode could only possible kick in A) every 24 hours or B) every time a work unit is done (or C) every time you hit Update manually). If you have a slow system crunching that takes more than 24 hours to crunch a result, then you would very likely miss deadlines. Granted, this is founded on the ideas that: 1) you have a slower machine or large results, and 2) that I'm right about EDF and how it kicks in. Can anyone affirm or correct this for me? (j) James |

1) John means that he's the one writing the panic mode codeNot only the panic-mode; as far as I know he has developed the complete actual version of the local scheduler:
Supporting BOINC, a great concept ! |
