I'm using v11.6 on 3 different Box's with a 5850-5870 & a 6990, all 3 Box's only use 0.05 of a CPU Core & I'm running 4 CPU Wu's on all 3 Quads ...

That's strange, other than the Wu's still taking longer to run I've only had 3 Error's the last 3 days, will have yo keep an eye on the Box's I guess ...

I've used Prosses Lasso before but haven't in awhile, which Process do I raise the Priority of, the DNET Client or the Wrapper. I've raised the Wrapper for now to see what happens ...

I just set them both to above but the DNET client is the important one. And set the I/O priority to high as well for both.


I set the Client & Wrapper to Above Normal on all 4 Box's but it seems to have only have slightly increased the speed of the Wu's on 1 of the Box's ...

I also have noticed the drop in credit for WU's, now the % of errors is growing. This project has been rock solid for months, so what has changed? and when will we return to normal?


The Problem was fixed, I've only had 1 error yesterday & none today. Did you abort the Wu's you had and download new ones ???

I don't think I've had a Computation Error since Aborting all work & slowly getting new work, can't be positive on that though but don't think I have ... Thanks Teemu

Seems the Wu's are taking a longer time to finish though ...

I'm now playing with a manual fix for that issue:

1. Request a cache of 1 day of Moo WUs.
2. Shutdown BOINC after all WUs have been downloaded.
3. Manually edit the file 'client_state.xml' and replace the line
<max_nbytes>51200.000000</max_nbytes>

by
<max_nbytes>61200.000000</max_nbytes>

for every Moo! <file_info> section in that file.
4. Restart BOINC.

I'm quite confident that this will fix the issue but of course only time will tell if it really does...


lol ... I'll Detach and go to another Project before going thru all that work on 4 Different Box's ... I can live with the 10-15 Percent error rate for a few more day's, but at the rate it's going that's going to go up to 25% or more so it'll be time to move on until the problems fixed ...

Frustrating, by day I've had 4-5-18-26 already 14 today so I expect more than 26 today. No contact from the Project, it doesn't take more than 5 seconds to come in & say we're working on it guy's but then they may not even be aware of the problem. Not a good way to run a Project ...

I've had about 20 on 4 different Box's the last 3 Day's error out plus about the same amount Marked Invalid. The ones that error out appear to run to their normal amount of run time but then error out for some reason.

Another thing that seems odd is while watching one Box the Wu's was up over 90% done in 10 Min's Time but then took 6-8 Min's more to finish the last 10% to completion. Watched 4-5 in a row do this.

Also noticing what Zydor said, Wu Times all over the place, one will run 14 Min's the next 20 then maybe 16 etc ... STE\/E

No not Afterburner, it was the YUFA Project that was messing the Cards up, as long as I don't run YUFA On the ATI Box the Wu's run fine ...

Played all weekend with these 2 Cards but in the end still having Problems with both of them whether running them separate or together & in different Computers. The 5850 ran 22 Wu's straight @ around 37 Minutes @ the stock setting & then took over 2.5 Hr's to run the next one & then it looked like it was going to take over 4 Hr's for the next one. I get the same thing with the 5870, it will run so many without any Problems & then start to take forever to run the Wu's. If I re-boot everything goes back to normal for awhile & then starts to take longer times again.

From looking at MSI Afterburner it looks like it may have something to do with the Memory in both Cards. It gets out of whack for some reason. I can have it set at 500 but it will be showing 725 but going up & down on the Memory Monitor.

Right now I have both the 5870 & 5850 running together but for some reason their only showing only about 50% usage & it looks like the Wu is going to take around 28 Minutes to run which is way to long for those 2 Cards to run a Wu. Their in a different Computer, MSI Afterburner is reading them wrong too, it shows them in the opposite slots that their really in. I'm going to shut it down & switch them & see if Afterburner reads them right & the % of use goes up.

Switching the Cards got Afterburner to read them right & the % of use went up to 95% or above, now to wait & see how long before they mess up again & look & Afterburner to see if the Memory is all wacky again ... :/

I guess it was the 5850 that was bad instead of the 5870. I ran the 5870 by it's self for 3 Hr's & it ran consistently around 27 Minutes. So I switched to the 5850 & a few Hr's later it had been running a Wu for 90 Min's already & wasn't 1/2 done yet ... I fired off a Support Ticket to XFX to see what they were willing to do about it but won't hear from them until Mon or Tues I suspect ...

Yeah I went & pulled one Card before you Posted to try 1 @ a Time so I can figure out the bad Card, I suspect the 5870. I say that because I actually had sold the card but had to take it back because the guy said it wouldn't even fire up for him, but the Card works for me, at least the system fires up & there's video.

Personally I think 1 or both Cards are on the Fritz, I can re-boot or change drivers & every thing is okay for awhile but after some Hr's the Wu's take longer & longer to run. Some are take over an Hour to run which is way to long for a Dual 58xx setup, could be 1 is a 5850 & 1 a 5870, maybe the different Card speeds is messing things up ?

The 2 ATI Cards I have now are getting on in age, if something is wrong with them I can't send them in even though their still under Warranty because they still work but are messing up when running the Wu's. I plan to buy some new ATI Cards but I'm waiting for the Next Generation Cards to come out when ever that's going to be.

The Cards are just running at their Stock Settings, I did a ATI Driver reinstall this morning, if the Error's continue I'll try the Detach & Re-Attach & see what Happens ...
