I am also seeing the same behaviour as Crystal Pellet on 6 work units on windows.

I turned LAIM off and suspended my 2 BETA tasks:
----------------------------------------Progress went from 17.X% to 15.X% and is currently at 20% and checkpointing just happened. Seems fine on Linux 64-bit. AMD Ryzen 5 1600AF 6C/12T 3.2 GHz - 85W AMD Ryzen 5 2500U 4C/8T 2.0 GHz - 28W AMD Ryzen 7 7730U 8C/16T 3.0 GHz |

I decided to abort the 6 work units mentioned above.
----------------------------------------BoincTasks showed the status as 'user aborted' and started new tasks. Process explorer showed BOINC running the aborted tasks as well as the newly started tasks. I tried to stop the BOINC service which did eventually happen. BOINC process disappeared from Process Explorer but left the science tasks still running. I started the BOINC service but this did not correct the situation so I had to re-boot the PC. The stderr from Results Status only shows: Result Name: BETA_ AC0002_ T000_ F00055_ S00001e_ 0-- <core_client_version>7.6.22</core_client_version> <![CDATA[ <message> aborted by user </message> ]]> The useful information from stderr on the PC has been lost.

Ah, orphan/zombie, "hello I'm still/not running" check failing.
----------------------------------------You can kill orphaned processes as admin [999 out of 1000 cases]... no boot needed. (This test was starting while watching a movie projection on the inside of the eyelids, full 3D, one about REM... no betas came through :| ) [Edit 2 times, last edit by SekeRob* at Mar 11, 2016 9:52:14 AM] |

The Result Log for these units is truncated to give only the final 20 minutes or so of log data, e.g.
Result Name: BETA_ AC0002_ T000_ F00054_ S00001d_ 1-- <core_client_version>7.2.47</core_client_version> <![CDATA[ <stderr_txt> NFO: Completed step 3981000 of initial simulation [09:15:52] INFO: Completed step 3982000 of initial simulation [09:15:53] INFO: Completed step 3983000 of initial simulation [09:15:54] INFO: Completed step 3984000 of initial simulation ...

Is writing log data every second a bit excessive, or is it really needed? |

I got these Betas only on Linux-x64 VMs and they have all run happily so far.
----------------------------------------As reported by others, the intial values of estimated run-time to completion were all way too high. The progress indicators were fairly accurate, eg on a 3770K @ 4.3GHz, progress increased steadily at about 1%/min and the CPU times in the Results Status pages were about 1.6 - 1.7 hrs. I tested checkpointing on only 1 machine, and everything appeared to work as it should. I did a few tests just suspending & resuming the WUs with LAIM off, and also shut down Linux and power-cycled the machine. All good.

I turned LAIM off and suspended my 2 BETA tasks: Progress went from 17.X% to 15.X% and is currently at 20% and checkpointing just happened. Seems fine on Linux 64-bit. They just finished. 2.09 and 2.07 hours. No problems whatsoever. One of them has turned valid.

Progress is increasing until the task makes a new checkpoint at 7,8%. Last 2 lines in stderr.txt: The other BETA's were processed in about 3 hours and finished.[08:43:21] INFO: Completed step 390000 of initial simulation Writing checkpoint at step 390151. and afterwards nothing at all. Process is running using a full core, but no new checkpoint are made and progress stays the same. The restarted one is still running after 4.5 hours and it looks like it will never end. |

12 units completed, all took between 1.6 and 1.9 hours (Windows 7 & 10). 8 are already Valid, the rest PVal.

The restarted one is still running after 4.5 hours and it looks like it will never end. Do you see any activity in the designated "slots/" directory (files updated, timestamp updates), Crystal Pellet? [Edit 1 times, last edit by adriverhoef at Mar 11, 2016 2:26:14 PM] |
