    RNA World (beta) News

    Moved XXL workunits to S
    Since we are running out of S (short) workunits I moved some shorter XXL workunits to S workunits. This means, that S workunits run now up to 2 days.yoyo

    Anybody experience with those XXLs? I have two with an estimated running time of some 1100 hours, that's more than 45 days...

    RNA = waste of time. Tasks run for weeks then either crash or time out. Gave up running it.

    Far worse even: an update for either Linux or Windows hat requires a reboot (or even installing a newer version of the BOINC manager!) can set the WU back to zero processing time.

    So there you had two RNA WUs that both have run for more than 600 hours (of the 1100 hours they're supposed to run) and the next moment they're back at zero minutes......

    Can the programmer(s) learn how to build in check moments? It is a/They are Programmer(s) CN (Certified Nincompoops) at the moment...-definitely not Programmer(s) C#-.

    The Project is back: http://www.rnaworld.de/rnaworld/foru...php?id=118#359 Seems they have a new lease on life, lets hope the credits and work units fare much better than before.





    Challenge me, or correct me, but don't ask me to die quietly.
