2 of the last 3 CEP WUs that I crunched ended after only about 10% and 25% of the usual CPU time. They are currently showing as Pending Validation, but both status files contain the lines:
| [ERROR] Failed to open either source or destination files while copying wcgrestart.rst to ../../projects/www.worldcommunitygrid.org/E000026_683A_00035c00j_0_3. Error: 2
| ####Message = NORMAL STOP

[Edits] 1.Thanks, Sek.
2. WU 23_425A has validated - (CPU time, Claimed /Awarded): Me - 4.26, 62.7 / 62.7; The Other Guy - 19.07, 202.9 / 62.7. TOG might be a little unhappy. This phenomenon has been reported elsewhere, but I don't remember any association with the error message above.
3. This behaviour seems to be inconsistent. Some crunchers complete a WU, others don't. I wonder whether the high page fault rate with CEP is occasionally catching out the operating system(s) and causing this. Any difference between o/ss and versions? Single CPU core vs multi?
4. I'm not certain, but these 2 errors probably happened while running 2 CEP WUs simultaneously. Other CEP WUs that completed normally were mostly run individually, with an FAAH WU in the other stream/core.
