Re: NumberFields@home: New project
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.
Re: NumberFields@home: New project
I set new projects up for an equal share on a single machine and then ignore it for a while. So far, no signs of really horrible problems for me, and all WU's seem to have gotten credit. I'll continue to let it simmer away while they work out the issues...
Re: NumberFields@home: New project
WU lengths are erratic, credit given even more so..........but wu's complete and validate ok.
It's fairly safe water for those considering jumping in.
Re: NumberFields@home: New project
I jumped on it and it ran, and ran, and ran... and ran, then said 100% complete and ran some more. I jumped out. I don't have time for projects like that... mainly because I am horribly impatient. ;)

I hope you didn't abort the task. Nothing was wrong with it.

It was insolent, so I had it eliminated. >:)
Re: NumberFields@home: New project
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.
