I've got an 8 core processor waiting and ready to turn out tasks. About 3 weeks ago I noticed that I wasn't getting many units to process. I have been getting an average of i task per day. Wait times for updates of more than 8 hrs are common. Often they go up to 21 hrs. I don't know if I'm wasting my time when my processing cycles could be used for some other Distributive Computing project.

Hi Dan.

Your returning a lot of erred tasks mostly the rb_save_all_out type which seem to be a bad batch anyway, that could be why.

Also are you overclocking your FX is it stable?

If your not how are the CPU temps?

my 2c worth. ;)

It looks like you're machine is running out of memory, e.g.:
https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/result.php?resultid=592638255
"Out Of Memory"

Because that CPU has so many active cores, it really needs around 4GB just for Rosetta to keep them all fed, plus some for Windows, plus whatever you're doing. If you can't add RAM, then you could set BOINC to use a much lower amount of RAM when the computer is in use (so it might run one or two threads while you use the PC), or set it to only crunch when the comptuer is otherwise idle.

I see you're also running Win7 x86 so that limits you to 4GB (including GPU RAM).

Do you have a page-file set in Windows?
