    Thanks, account created. I will crunch a little after we hit the 100M Prima goal.

    Just to let you know, almost all of my tasks here have never ended. Only 1 has actually completed in the 5-6 hour time span. They have bugs to work out, obviously.

    What makes you think there are bugs (other than the progress meter, obviously)? The tasks just have varying run times. Some short, some long. My longest so far is over 16 hours. But not a single error yet for me

    First WU has been crunching for 11 hours progress meter at zero, here's where faith comes in.

    True. It might just be a progress meter calculation issue. In which case, I wasted my work by aborting them

    Basically, I've had a lot of wasted cycles lately and I'm probably on the low side of patience. I'll come back to this project some time.

    D'oh! Be sure to check your CPU usage in situations like that.

    Yeah, I should be more cautious in what I do. Lol, impatience probably doesn't work well with BOINC.

    It was insolent, so I had it eliminated.

    Did the site reset? I'm getting a password prompt when I try to go to it. When the main page says "It Works!", that's only a good sign during initial install.
