Have you had any consistent work from Aqua lately? I know they say they are down for maintenance, but I had three wu's yesterday and one or two a couple of days earlier.

Yep, they said they will be down and since they went up again I got only a few WU, can't seem to get more, they probably experience some more problems...

Looking in the server status shows: Results ready to send 0, that might be the reason why we don't get any work...

I still have some WU that will take about 40-50 hours to crunch, quite annoying without checkpointing when in the last moment on the 99% mark the computer might get crazy and boot/close the application and 40-50 hours of work will be lost... Rolling Eyes

Has anyone complained about the lack of checkpointing to them & have they responded to it? Since I can't leave my shrubbers on 24x7 forever, I had to stop shrubbing the project. If checkpointing was done, I would consider restarting the project.

Ofcourse, they're aware of the fact that lack of checkpointing is problematic to many users, they'll implement the checkpointing feature in the next release of their application...

Have they decided when that will be? I would think that since it turns a lot of people off, they would hurry it along...

Didn't see any schedule for this work, doesn't seem like they're much in a hurry... Rolling Eyes

That's too bad, credit is sweet there... project can still be suspended and stay in the memory while shrubbers doesn't shrub for it, just can't unload it from the memory in any way or the work is lost...

I think it's the best credit awarding project right now... #ni-1

That's one of the reasons I want to get back to shrubbing it. Good science and good credit. I just don't have any shrubbers that are on 24x7 to avoid the lost work...

I cut the project down to two machines that are on all the time because of this issue.

I saw that, but the trickle doesn't make sense if they are really down for maintenance. I just wish they would update their news so we know what's going on. I hope you don't waste too much time re-running projects.

I'm not spending too much time running this project... don't worry about that... you better detach yourself from this project and just let me pass you undisturbly... #ni-1

That'll never happen again...unless I get bored and decide to focus on something else. #ni-1
