They are developing on xtrack as replacement of Sixtrack. https://youtu.be/3QLk6y2WNGs?t=321 Many projects already switched to xtrack internally(means not much work is prepared for sixtrack). Once xtrack is released for BOINC there will be a more steady flow of Work.

I got a bunch of SixTrack tasks on my Intel i5 CPU. But most are 32 bit, only 2 64 bit. My Windows 11 is 64 bit.Why?

There have been a few batches since but currently many stuck awaiting validation despite 2 good returns.

Yes, however, they always come in waves since I imagine that the scientist need to look at the results from one batch to design the next batch, is not designed to give consistent work like the other projects.
