DDDT 5.10 stalled out @ 67.65% done and had to abort. Only one I have seen so far so just a heads up at this point.

You mean your iMac? Is the OS X client known for this? I have had a quad G5 and more recently a 2.66 Mac Pro going at work and so far no issues, other than the fact they can't be permanent crunchers :mad:

I have a G5 iMac and in my family we have a old 2x 450 G4 and a MacTel 1.8 iMac but they not local so I have to wait on a email for them to check if they are running or stalled out.
Yes OS X has a bug that we watch for and report to each other when one stalls out so we can all check ours.

Thanks for the heads up, Mystic.
Just an FYI: If you shutdown/restart the client it will pick up at the last checkpoint and complete without having to lose too much work/time.

I went as far as rebooting the iMac 2 times and it wouldn't budge. I do try before I abort but it was dead stalled. :shakes:

Hey I was rolling my eyes cuz that's NOT the attitude I have, hell I have made a living primarily off Macs going on 10 years now. :)
btw That Pro is only a dual dual-core 2.66 with a gig of RAM but it's chewing through the WUs pretty quick compared to my home rig

and that is why the :p: at the end. For net/work type stuff there is no beating them. Windowz is a console os for me. Just another 360 Dashboard to gaming fun :woot: course minus the BSOD's :D

My sentiments exactly. And of course they are still predominant in creative enterprises, for which I've always worked. Gaming got me really into PCs. Glad they did cuz PC hardware is fun :)
