I am the top user in RNA today for the team. I'm the only user in RNA today for the team. There's a lot of people gaining on us. So, if you need to make a milestone or just want to help keep us in 13th after Sic* passes us, head on down to RNA.

I'm doing all I can. This screen shot is from a day ago. So add about another 24 hours to each task. Fingers crossed that there is no power glitch, since there is no checkpointing. ;) yoyo said that these big tasks pay double, so I am very interested to see what will be awarded!

Something about that doesn't look right. The longest one I've had so far is 14 hours. Have any of those that are that long finished for you? Do they really make them that big? That's insane.Quote:

The rare but inevitable tasks can take up to 1.2gb each. So keep that in mind.Quote:

An hour or so ago, Spinhenge WUs finished so I will be crunching RNA solo for a day or so before I add another project to my quad's queue. I will see how much this quad can do with RNA alone, during my normal computer use.
The current crop of WUs are estimated at 44 minutes to 5 hours. Crunching it with a Phenom 9650 @ 2.3GHz, it takes about those times, or less.

No checkpoint and it will run for 500 hours? Man that is some risk.
Lol, took me a while to realize this was an old thread.
Nice necro posting :)
Not any more. Those mega-tasks are all done and out of the system.Quote:

Just wondering if I should take the risk on the long tasks or not when I start crunching RNA. I normally wouldn't care, but no checkpointing for 500 hours...
Yes, the mega tasks paid 3-4x claimed. But like I said, there are no more of those mega tasks. All gone. The current tasks run from a few minutes to around 3 days max.Quote:

But why the completed slip from 60% to 7% after 50+ hours processed/crunched/etc..
I wonder how long it will truly take. The Math makes it 35 days or so to complete the monster, instead of another 3 days or so it would have been this morning.
