The current set of ATLAS@Home work units are quite important to the experiment and would like to get them finished as quickly as possible. Therefore if you have more CPU to donate to ATLAS@Home over the next couple of weeks to crunch through these WU it would be very much appreciated! There are currently around 7000 WU left to crunch in this set and we will provide regular updates of how many are left to go.

Many of the server-side scalability issues have been addressed and we are confident that we can handle more concurrent WU at this time. However the vboxwrapper is still having issues in some cases, so if you notice that you have WUs that are stalled or WUs that consume very small amount of cpu for more than 30 minutes, please abort them since they will most likely not succeed. The expected cputime usage of the WUs varies from 6 to 36 hour, so please ignore the WU progress as reported by the client.

Thank you in advance for your help!
