Hi all,

It seems this batch with the very large input files is a one-off caused by a misconfiguration on the ATLAS side. Apologies if it is causing problems and hopefully the next batches should be back to normal.

Currently downloading a file that is about 250 MB https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=330691684 so looking ok.

Crazy 1.9GB file sizes even with Native Atlas.

I had a heck of a time getting a PC running again after my disk filled up from this. It's only on a 120GB drive. I tried deleting some executable and db files of other projects but BOINC Mgr in all of its wisdom thought I still needed them even w/o tasks for those apps/projects.

Still getting these really big tasks. And its causing other tasks to not download since these take sooo long.

Tasks finish faster than new ones can download. Moving production elsewhere.

Have reduced to one W10pro and two CentOS (7and 8)-VM.
Squid is stopped therefore and will watching how fast the DL of the 1.9GByte now is!

That's a pity:

I have downloaded two 1.9 GB Atlas tasks. Completed and validated. Max disk usage 4.04 GB.

I had only 2 failures with these tasks.
1 invalid and 1 failure because I interrupted it upgrading Vbox.
Otherwise other than disk size I have had no problems and didn't even know there were problems.

BUT...something different... do these big files cause any problems with RAH?
They have a new project of tasks using VBOX and someone said maybe this had something to do with why I am not getting any Vbox tasks at RAH.

Any thoughts on this?

At the moment, it is probably because Rosetta is out of pythons.

I am downloading 14 of the native ATLAS now, and they are all almost 2 GB each.
I don't expect that to be a problem (I have 110 Mbps download). But with all the other things going on, it could potentially be a problem.

Thanks for noticing it. They should fix it for their own good.

Earlier this week there were what 900 or something? I couldn't get any of them.
Have you ever heard of two projects that use Vbox causing one to not allow the other to run?

The BOINC Client does the communication and doesn't care what other projects are running. There are over 418k Rosetta tasks in progress atm and 9k are python. 2% chance.

I have never had exactly your problem. You will need to do some experimenting.

Didn't think that was the issue. Thanks for the clarification.

Now 1 GByte instead of 1.9. Time for download without squid 2.5 min!

yes, indeed. The question is: will this new filesize stay for a while, or will it revert back to 1.9GB sometime?

David said it was a mistake on there side, my experience is that humans make mistakes, so sometime, yes.

Still huge at 1122482k. When there are 8x tasks per PC running on multiple machines plus the several hundred mb upload completing. It's too much transferring.
