1) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : BOINC 7.18.1 causes invalids (Message 1765) Posted 24 Jul 2022 by Diplomat Post: any news? for now only QuChemPedIA have issues, all other projects doing good
2) Message boards : Number crunching : High failure rate (Message 1763) Posted 21 Jul 2022 by Diplomat Post: apparently the issue in boinc clinet https://quchempedia.univ-angers.fr/athome/forum_thread.php?id=166#1644 need to try downgrading

4) Message boards : Number crunching : Credits for t8=t4=t2=5.000 seriously? (Message 832) Posted 5 May 2020 by Diplomat Post: Hi, ProDigit, there are no extra setting involved, I chose to run NWChem long and server sends me t1-t8 according ti its own judgment. I'm happy with current CPU workload.
5) Message boards : Number crunching : Credits for t8=t4=t2=5.000 seriously? (Message 821) Posted 27 Apr 2020 by Diplomat Post: Have you tried to monitor processes list? Are there 20 (8+8+4) nwchem running at 100%? it's not the best example now, only t4 and t2 are running

(Message 819) Posted 27 Apr 2020 by Diplomat Post: Indeed I don't see a point in "overcommitting" I was running 100% CPU on different PCs for 5+ years and never saw any problems, maybe because of Linux :) Sometimes I have to turn off GPU when need to use virtual machines or free up to 2 threads to watch youtube at res higher than 720p30

(Message 806) Posted 24 Apr 2020 by Diplomat Post: I see what you mean, but It doesn't feel like tasks sitting and not using CPUs, 8+8+4 exactly what I expect some t8 on validation and CPU vs Run time doesn't look right as well =(
8) Message boards : Number crunching : Credits for t8=t4=t2=5.000 seriously? (Message 804) Posted 24 Apr 2020 by Diplomat Post: Recently returned back to project, saw new NWChem Long tasks. I dedicated 20 threads and after jumping back and forth server started to give me primarily t8 tasks. It is really surprising that bigger tasks give you less reward :)
9) Message boards : News : Molecules are coming! (Message 540) Posted 11 Feb 2020 by Diplomat Post: You should let it calculate, it's probably an extreme case. 2d 12 hrs and 37 min I'm feeling lucky! still running
10) Message boards : News : Molecules are coming! (Message 535) Posted 9 Feb 2020 by Diplomat Post: Several dozen hours in average, but to be certain we'll have to test and there will be extreme cases... Hi, I'm running NWChem 0.17 (t1) All task completed within 2 hrs, but there is one that sitting for over 15 hrs. Should I let it finish? I'm afraid that other users might consider it as a bug and abort.
