Hello, I really have a problem with LHC@Home, it' uses virtualbox and it's working BUT: Each unit is using 1 thread and requires nearly 10 days to complete (and lot of disk space), so nearly all results I return are out of date. This Science United account is not linked to LHC@home, I cannot connect to their forum to say them to increase the time allowed by a factor of 2. I am on Linux Gentoo with a Ryzen 3700X and 32GB memory, so if I can't complete works in time, who can? Thanks to pass the message to LHC@home. |

I consistently see this with ATLAS. |

An Atlas task takes about 3 hours and 14 minutes on 2 CPUs of my HP Pavilion desktop with a i5 CPU and 12 GB RAM. Tullio |

I have to add a +1 here:  I think I'll abort them. Maybe this sends a message to the server... EDIT: It looks like time is poorly calculated, two of them just finished, and one has already been uploaded. I have to check if they counted as unsuccessful jobs:  PS: The time needed for the other one, has even increased EDIT2:  King of unsuccessful jobs 99 fails vs 34 succeeded |
