Posted 12 Dec 2018 by UBT - Timbo Post: The only thing we can do is change the specs at NFS@Home preferences which I've already notified the admin to do so. A year on and the NFS@Home Preferences section on the website still says this: lasieved - app for RSALS subproject, uses less than 0.5 GB memory: I guess the admin is just too busy ensuring there is some available disk space ;-) regards Tim |

Memory issues

Posted 19 Sep 2016 by UBT - Timbo Post: Hi, I have only "allowed" the following tasks to run on one of my PC's (on Win XP): lasieved - app for RSALS subproject, uses less than 0.5 GB memory: yes lasievee - work nearly always available, uses up to 0.5 GB memory: yes And yet I find that lasievee_1.08_windows_intelx86.exe is using 1,104,512K of RAM. lasieved_1.08_windows_intelx86.exe is much better behaved using only 384,144k of RAM. Anyone know why lasievee is operating "outside" it's quoted memory requirements? regards Tim |

Can't join a team :-(
(Message 1230)
Posted 1 Jan 2014 by UBT - Timbo Post: Hi Greg, Thanks for your reply. I think the issue is with the BOINC code - as now that I have credits, I was able to join a team. Before I had the credits, even though I was logged in, when I went to any teams page (in order to join it) at top right it had "log in".....so, clearly, before you have a specific number of credits, I would suggest that the BOINC server code doesn't recognise you as being logged in and hence the "Join this team" option, isn't available. Now I have credits on this project, I've been able to join a team and all seems good. FYI: I had the same issue with CAS@home and now I have credits on their project, so I've been able to join a team there as well. Maybe there is a threshold that you have to attain, before you can join a team? (But if that's the case, how come some people have zero credits and yet are members of a team ??) regards Tim |

Posted 31 Dec 2013 by UBT - Timbo Post: Hi all, I just joined this project and I find that when I log in and after I search for a team to join, it doesn't show the "Join team" option.... What is more puzzling is that to the right of the screen it shows the "log in" function, even though I am already logged in !! It's not a credit issue, as I now have credit and still cannot join a team :-( I guess this really is an admin issue....so can someone flag this up please? regards from UK :-) Tim Founder, UK BOINC Team PS I have this EXACT same problem with the CAS@home project - see here: http://casathome.ihep.ac.cn/forum_thread.php?id=247 |
