Rosetta seems to run fine on mine no issues

Good to see you in the neighbourhood Mr Area51 sah

I got the odd unit that gave a 'compute error' but not that often, also I noticed that occasionally one or two threads would stall, rebooting the boinc client would sort it out.

I've rebooted the client and the machine a few times yet they're still producing compute errors all over the shop. Going to drain the WU cache and completely remove the client and relocate it to the mechanical HDD.

For god knows what reason it's taking 11GB on my Laptop. Good job I opted for a 256GB SSD in there!

I've noticed that Rosetta WU's have quite a large RAM usage, something like 500MB per instance. Any chance this is exceeding the RAM available and thrashing your swap file?

Might very well be on the laptop. Just checked it out and it is running at 95% usage with 8GB of RAM in there. Fortunately the pagefile is at the beginning of the mechanical HDD on the laptop.

The desktop is running 40% RAM used, but that's with a 4GB VM running and 24GB of RAM

EDIT: Just rebooted the laptop and disabled it leaving suspended tasks in the memory, that brings it down to 46% used.

My 2nd rig is only ever holding 8 WUs now (crunching 3 at a time) and this is worrying the missus as sometimes they take forever to begin uploading and she doesn't wanna run outa WUs.

Where can I extend the amount I hold?

Lunawolfy · 20 Feb 2012 at 10:57

Anybody?

Go to the rosetta web site and go into your account and set the computing prefs to the following setting:

Production has fallen behind CircleStorm again

Crunch!

RiseAgainst · 28 Feb 2012 at 21:26

Will switch my production to Rosetta for a few days, not going to produce much iam afraid but every little helps

j_Remos · 5 Mar 2012 at 10:02

Giving it all i got, still a few Seti WU's clearing out but RAC is going up at a reasonable rate.

Actually, looks like i'm top of the pile.. cool

Biffa · 14 Mar 2012 at 18:12

Anyone getting errors connecting to the servers at rosetta?

j_Remos · 15 Mar 2012 at 09:23

Seems OK to me.

Biffa · 15 Mar 2012 at 15:56

Yeah its working *now*

verbal · 15 Mar 2012 at 21:06

Are you going to be helping out Biffa? We're struggling at the moment. Going to get re-overtaken by a couple of teams

Biffa · 16 Mar 2012 at 01:48

I am running the client, did a few WU today

I'll crank my rigs up a bit over the weekend but Circlestorm are well up on production.

Biffa · 16 Mar 2012 at 11:31

Looks like its our RAC thats dropped more than theirs has risen, and its really only them, the other teams are 6 months to a year away
