I'm hoping this project will see some action with the start of the academic year in October. Zupa, can you confirm? :)

By the way zupa, if you would need some help with translating stuff like the science page from Polish to English, I can help :)

That makes me so happy! I suspended all other projects and thrown everything I've got at them!

So... any hopes of getting new tasks?

Hi!

I am no longer getting any calculation errors, yay! But around 20-30% of my tasks fail with "download failed". Can it be a problem on my side?

EDIT: Probably not, such tasks fail for everyone: http://150.254.66.104/gaiaathome/workunit.php?wuid=9753

Still no luck, every task I try fails in a computation error a few minutes in.

Hi, I'm trying to understand why the previous data needed 3h calculations and the current input data counts so quickly. Because a certain calculation time is assumed, the result file takes on a monstrous size. I have reduced the calculation time to 5 min, increased the allowed size of the result file.
I am very surprised by this situation and apologise for the problem. It was a new packet of data as usual, and here such a surprise. A review of the results will show if the calculations are correct, but there is nothing to indicate that they are wrong, just that you are counting incredibly fast this time.


In that 16% I haven't seen a change in calculation speed, based on how fast it was going, the estimated task time would be around 1.5-2h, so not really a change from the previous batches. At least for me.

Disk usage limit exceeded</message>


Huh, interesting, seems Gaia broke my 10GB limit for BOINC files. I removed all limits and let's see what happens now.

EDIT:

Even with no limits, tasks failed around 15% mark, and Gaia was then using about 18GB of disk space (!). I'll suspend crunching new tasks until more is known.

Got today morning a batch of Gaia_3 tasks, sadly all failed at 16% :(

I'm patiently waiting for this project to restart and I will give my machines to it the moment it comes back online. I'm really rooting for G@H, as it's coming from my University. I hope 2023 will be a great year for Gaia. Admins, if you need any help, let me know.

Hi!

This project is especially interesting to me as I'm an alumni of UAM and I am glad to help my people :) And so I wanted to ask what's happening with the numbers that we are crunching? Any cool scientific projects, PHDs that we are pushing forward? Just a very general update will suffice. Thanks!
