Will anyone explain why after hours of CPU usage...Atlas task is wasted?

Definetely, is not a very good solution...

I have plenty of tasks failing due to similar "reasons" 8 GB ram and can't produce a single task if I use the laptop for internet surfing (VM gets stuck, "JOB postponed"...

Maybe try to open the VM couple of times before assuming is not there (which was not true) and send everything to hell.
When usual Boinc tasks can't connect to internet, they are not directly waste. Boinc tries later...

Hi team,

I sometimes (??) have issues with Atles (and theory) tasks.

Example:
https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=214905801

Why this one didn't work? I got no clue what to do to make my laptop useful but is getting hard for LHC...

Thx¡

What is to say: I can't avoid getting Theory (somehow, they dont work fine in my pc).

Hi team,

I am crunching under gridcoin pool but somehow theory tasks are always failing (....). Atlas seems to be ok.
Unfortunately I cannot choose, I need to request both or none.
Can I locally in my pc modify config file to avoid theory task's request to server?

Thx in advance¡

After hours, by somehow of miracle, job was cancelled and sent to "heaven" with 0 credits & results.

Why? None knows.

As soon as I get Theory tasks, I cancel them. Atlas more or less works fine...

Hi,

All my Theory tasks are failing due to incorrect proxy set u, whereas ATLAS are working fine:

Theory:

https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/result.php?resultid=214535693


Any suggesiton?

My system will keep sending error Theory back to server...

Thats actually a sixtrack and takes hours and hours :)

Some times we get different names task which only take 1 - 2 hours, but there is on way for choosing between them.

I would firts try to fix lack of memory is such devices (via mounting a usb drive as additional "hard drive") and come back if lucky).

BTW: It would be nice to "choose" which kind of tasks the user prefers: I dont see a non powrfull device crunching an "LHC_2015...) task on time. It takes hours and hours in a good lapop..:)

Hi team,

I have some solar power at home which I can't simply use / store during southern spanish summer.
Thus, I was thinking about using some of that power to crunch some lhc.
Do you have any clue whether is possible to use internet router for this purpose? I have couple of them, with openwrt and ddwwrt (telnet and ssh access), both unix based.
I algo got some android phones but they are extremely old :(

They are not powerfull but they could crunch for 12 hours a day...for "free" :)

Thx in advance.

I am not asking for help.
I am just commenting out & suggesting about some topic, please read my "first" comment.

We still dont receive tasks and I can still see >40K tasks "pending". Is ont only me. Almost none.

I am suggesting a quicker deadline so as it does not take weeks for a unit to be done while hundreds of computers are iddle. like mine. Indeed I moved to another project, Already almost a week with 0 tasks.

Please comment on that, dont waste your time searching for my account or host, thats adding nothing to this open topic.

Hi,

Thats not an answer.

Why don't you provide an answer instead of writting an "excuse"? If you don't know, is ok, me neither.

Im in gridcoin pool. Thats why you won't see my computer from this account. Happier now?

Hi team,

It's been already days since I last crunched something (no VM for me).

Is there anything expected to come?

How could we have 30K tasks "pending" but I can't get anyone? maybe we should reduce the deadlines so as eveyrhting moves faster for those crunching?

Thx for the feedback.

And this is the reply I was looking for :)

Thx to Alessio M for clarifing :)

It would be also nice to know the crunching status (batches missing and so on). Otherwise, there is no way to "know" when each "experiment" will be finished and sent back to scientist for further analysis.

Being aware of the "progress" is something volunteers appreciatte, otherwise is hard to know where are we and were are we going to as it sounds like an endless experiment.

Have a nice day,
Javi

What is to say: We dont really know what are the batches about, just the "theory".

It would be nice to know...if they want participants ot be kept. Now I cna see meny of them here due to good gridcoinc reward but if that changes...

Hi,

Thx for your reply.

I know how to surf the site and I know the "theory" of what we are doing.

But no, there is no clear and updated place where I can see why we run out of workunits or whats the meaning of the names of the tasks we get. Or when somehting is found or when the ssearch could pottentially "end".

Can you say what do units like "2015_errors" stand for?

hHi,

Im on gridcoin.

And no, there is no work for sixtrack, see the site you sent ;)



And I am ont the only one who did a heads up about this.

I would like to get much more info about science happening, workunit naming convention (the only ones I am crunching, are called "2015 errors...".

No idea what I am doing and what we are doing now generally speaking.

KR,
