Something new

Hi

I got surprised just now when I discovered Boinc of uFluid stopped working. Checking the log I noticed that:

Never seen before there had been any limit of how many work units I am allowed per day.

The limits were probably high enough when the workunits were large. How much time do those take?
Most likely the uFluids devs created a batch of smaller workunits but forgot to increase the quota.

Hi

On my AMD64 the WU take about 2,5 hour and on my Compaq Presario it take about 12 hour but they both use different tasks.

Hi

As many? Know uFluid has no checkpoint. But when you run Boinc and crunch 2 or 3 project there are no problems when they change time. As you can see below QMC is left in memory while uFluid will work. Lather uFluid will be left in memory while QMC is crunching. uFluid never begin from zero. Only if you shout the Boinc down the task of uFluid begin from start and you will lose your computational hours.

You can run this project as good as any other. A task takes 12 hours using an AMD64 3200+.
