1) Message boards : Xtrack/SixTrack : Xtrack (Xboinc) Message 52567 Posted 24 Oct 2025 by Speedy	Is Xtrack going to have steady work or be like SixTrack? I would also like to know the answer to this question Once upon a time SixTrack had plenty of work it also had a cool screensaver. I am just happy that I occasionally get work from Xtrack
2) Message boards : Xtrack/SixTrack : Xtrack (Xboinc) Message 52263 Posted 20 Sep 2025 by Speedy	Right now it is just Linux and Windows I'm not so sure about that. Currently there appears to be no work. Hopefully work will be available in the near future That isn't run here and is at the test site Message was the first post in this very threadTo be clear I am referring to the following message which is on the front page of LHC@home New application Xtrack As mentioned in this thread, we finally have the new Xtrack BOINC application available for beta testing. Please refer to the Sixtrack/Xtrack forum for further details and feedback discussion. Tasks should hopefully be available by tomorrow. The LHC@home team 16 Sep 2025, 16:11:37 UTC

5) Message boards : Xtrack/SixTrack : XBoinc Message 51662 Posted 10 Mar 2025 by Speedy	What are you waiting on to be restarted?
6) Message boards : Xtrack/SixTrack : Sixtrack BOINC application on track to be ported to GPUs? Message 47974 Posted 6 Apr 2023 by Speedy	Any update? Yep, with 8 hrs cpu wus, a gpu app will be welcome :-) Will the RTX 30 series be able to help when it is released?
7) Message boards : Xtrack/SixTrack : Sixtrack BOINC application on track to be ported to GPUs? Message 47908 Posted 27 Mar 2023 by Speedy	So once that is fully deployed (~2 months), expect to see a lot of jobs! Cheers We are ready!! Indeed we are. I wonder what the chances of the GPU app getting deployed here will be?
8) Message boards : Number crunching : No Tasks Available Message 47854 Posted 14 Mar 2023 by Speedy	Yes, at the time you posted that was the only project that had work to be sent out :-) as I am not a project developer or administration person I don't know the reason why only one project had work available to be sent out. Hope this answers your question
9) Message boards : Xtrack/SixTrack : Six Track ghost Message 46968 Posted 1 Jul 2022 by Speedy	I can't answer the question you are asking, however I did notice (yesterday) on 1 of your hosts there were 22 work units that had timed out.
10) Message boards : ATLAS application : Potential disruption due to ATLAS database upgrade on 7 April Message 44836 Posted 28 Apr 2021 by Speedy	Just out of curiosity what is the size of this database? database and all working files...? I would also be interested to hear about this information
11) Message boards : News : test of SixTrack 5.00.00 Message 36811 Posted 22 Sep 2018 by Speedy	Great news! I hope this is the first step toward opencl... I agree. It would be nice to see use of open CL. however this will mean we will get through work a lot quicker which is a good thing, providing there is the workflow to feed uses computers
12) Message boards : News : File upload issues Message 34136 Posted 29 Jan 2018 by Speedy	My uploads have cleared too. Maybe it is because Atlas tasks out in the field has dropped to 5900? Maybe results out in the field have dropped to 5390. Currently currently there is none of these these tasks to send out. Perhaps there wanting to clear some space of the discs? I certainly know upload speeds have increased from like 86 kilobytes a second last night New Zealand time to over 400 this afternoon. A much nicer speed.

15) Message boards : Number crunching : LHC on GPU ? Message 26986 Posted 13 Nov 2014 by Speedy	Looking at it; but will be several months at least. See my next status report coming soon. Eric. To bring this thread back on topic. I have had a look through the news posts but I am not able to find anything relating to running LHC on GPU's. Is anybody able to post link to the status report in question?
16) Message boards : Number crunching : Tasks exceeding disk limit Message 26774 Posted 3 Oct 2014 by Speedy	Jay, another weird thing is the result showing as pending has now run time, the first time I have ever seen this. I also have 6 results that have exited with extending the disk limit. Ranging between 1000 and 1500 seconds run-time
17) Message boards : News : Status, 13th September, 2013 Message 25930 Posted 22 Oct 2013 by Speedy	Unusual issue on my 2 pcs yesterday and today [22nd Oct] - 51 WUs failing to upload. Downloads coming in OK. No hint on Server Status page of any such problems. Got any thoughts. My pcs run on Xp and Win 7. Thanks. I can also confirm that I can't upload tasks from my Windows 7 PC. I can't download any new tasks because they have too many in progress
18) Message boards : News : Status, 13th September, 2013 Message 25851 Posted 21 Sep 2013 by Speedy	As I write there is currently no work for windows (apart from resends) is there any more work on the horizon?
19) Message boards : Number crunching : error -177 resource limit exceeded Message 23131 Posted 19 Sep 2011 by Speedy	Thanks for steps. I had a look & decided not to modify anything. Will let my 98 remaining tasks run (12 at a time) & hope they don't all error out. Thanks again
20) Message boards : Number crunching : error -177 resource limit exceeded Message 23128 Posted 19 Sep 2011 by Speedy	I found the problem I think in the init_data.ini file <rsc_disk_bound>30000000.000000</rsc_disk_bound>, This is 28MB Next 58% done is at 27.7 MB (29,048,832 bytes) 05:35:30 with 3 hours to go = i bet this would error, except i stopped boinc and manually bumbped up the limit and it got to 05:51:07 at 28.7 MB (30,146,560 bytes) and counting. So this is the problem - The project needs to up the limit. That's wonderful to hear you have manually fixed the problem. Can you post instructions on what to do to correct linit?
