It's not only this. TN Gridi is very memory-intensive project
At the end of tihs thread (las 6-7 post) you can see the answer from Daniel ( a project's developer) to my specific question
http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test/forum_thread.php?id=135&sort_style=8&start=150
TN-Grid love high speed RAM
@Millenium, if you can, try to overclock RAM

You should really think about how you deal with volunteers and their effort in this project. Failed WUs because there are some hours over deadline are a waste of time, electric power and money. I've got something better to do, maybe find some prime numbers.
Tschüss!
I'm just a BOINC volunteer like you. Mine was just a suggestion, because you can encounter it with all projects with short deadline
Regarding wu returned too late, my most recent experience has happened with WCG last week: no credit earned
I don't know if others projects take in account that

However they need to take into account the growing of high count core desktop in the next few years.
In my opinion a work generator upgrade is a crucial factor

As shown in the link above, every project has it's own deadline, depending on their specific needs.
It vary form 1 day (WCG FightAIDS@Home - Phase 2) to 347 days (climateprediction.net)
Every project need a litte optimization made by the user: for exaple on your laptop, you can set to download less work

All wu of this project have a 5 days deadline
Nothing strange. You simply return them after

Any update on GPU app? It's still in development or is stopped?

At this pace whe are talking :
87554 - 11587= 75967 / 26= 2921 days /365= 8 years
I think more users are needed
Maybe upgrading the WU generator poperly
We are confident that your team will figure the best solution for the project
Keep crunching :)

Allowed what? This large number of WUs?
This host has 48 cores. max task quequed for each core =8 48x8= 384
According to elaboration time, he need 2 days to complete theese wus

Hi David,
are you running all 64 thread on this monster? http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test/show_host_detail.php?hostid=44901
15700s is impressive for 64 thread
AMD is doing grat job for BOINC users

It is a normal practice for each challenge issued on every project.
When starting date and hour is set (in this case March 4th 0:00 UTC) you calculate when you can begin download wu to return after the challenge is started (in this case 5 or les days). The user is interest to execute wu an upload them, before deadline to recieve credit.
Personally, doing bunker, i do some maths to calculate the right amount of wu needed in this period
However many user don't do this
By the way, theese challenge are kind of boost for the project, because maybe some partecipant decide to stay on the project
It's also a server' stability test

All theese wu are only bunker fo the upcoming challenge on the project, issued by TSBT, starting March 4th
http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test/forum_thread.php?id=241
You can avoid the wu limit (10wu per core) increasing the value "ncpus" in the cc_config.xml (only in the bunker construction phase)

It happen on all project. if you have a lot wu with tight deadline, boin try to finish them. For example yesterday on WCG with subproject FAH (1 day deadline)and MIP (10 days), boinc complete firs all FAH wu because i have set request for 3 days work.
If you have the internet connection always on, try to set request work for 1 day or less. In that case boinc will switch project because it see that wu are not so in hurry

Hi, another user (Luigi R.) from our team Boinc Italy has done theese app_info.xml. Try it and let us know if they work
Make sure that you have the correct app
Windows
http://gene.disi.unitn.it/test/download/gene_pcim_v1.11_win64__avx.exe
Open Notepad an copy the following text and save the file as "app_info.xml"
<app_info>
<app>
<name>gene_pcim</name>
<user_friendly_name>gene@home PC-IM</user_friendly_name>

Thanks for the warning - some of these jobs seem to need considerably more CPU-time. 17 h for 32% in one case. Anyhow, if there's a chance they come to an end I'll let them run.
if you can, let them run. If you need to turn off your pc at the end of the day, abort them. If you are in the middle of long checkpoint, and you turn off your pc, you'll come back to the previously checkpoint, losing your time.
One wu stay at 52% for 9h. Total run time 33h
I refer to old TCGA wus

if you click on "Application details" you can see that: the sse2 version is more profitable for you (3,40 GFlops) against avx (2,83 GFlops)
this is the reason why you recieve much more sse2 wus
