Sorry but uninstalling WSL did not work.
I even d/l the BOINC/V-Box bundle to see if that was the case. But no.
I can run Mint on Virtual Box.

Try this:

[sudo] watch -n10 "find /var/lib/boinc-client/slots -name \"log.EVNTtoHITS\" |sort |xargs -I {} -n1 sh -c \"echo "{}"; grep -Po 'INFO.*Run:Event.*\K\(.*' {} |tail -n4; echo\""

...

I modified the command line to monitor ATLAS native 3.01:
In this example, I used 2 CPUs per task hence the tail -n2.

sudo watch -n10 "find /var/lib/boinc-client/slots/ \( -name \"log.EVNTtoHITS\" -o -name \"AthenaMP.log\" \) |sort |xargs -I {} -n1 sh -c \"egrep 'INFO.*Run:Event ' {} |tail -n2\"|sort -k 7,7"

An example of output:

Important is the work we do with this Tasks

and not the size of the input file.

But I still can't find any words that claim they are useless for science.

a scientist added a batch to the ATLAS-queue not meant for BOINC

Where did you get that idea from?

https://lhcathome.cern.ch/lhcathome/forum_thread.php?id=5976&postid=47891

Probably a scientist added a batch to the ATLAS-queue not meant for BOINC, cause the root-file to download for 1 task is 1110MB.

In case of the 1.996,63 credit points, stderr under "max FLOPS of device" shows 37,11 GFLOPS,
in case of the 211.93 credit points, it shows 4,65 GFLOPS.

How can this come about? As said, we are talking about the same machine and the same environment.
Further, the indicated GFLOPS are never ever in alignment with the runtims / CPu times of the tasks.
So, something seems to be rather wrong with the various calculation in the ATLAS code :-(

The line:
[2022-08-30 06:15:06] Singularity works
is a hardcoded String that the script prints to the log.

It could also print "Wuppdibragglkennsdmined works" and it would still run Apptainer.

In Production is singularity active and multiattach.
Only in -dev is apptainer in use, but there is no new work (Holiday?).

and check with "cvmfs_config stat" if "DIRECT" changes to the local proxy's IP.

cvmfs_config stat atlas

cvmfs_config showconfig -s atlas |grep -E 'CVMFS_(HTTP_PROXY|SERVER_URL|USE_CDN)'
