HCC - Time to fight against cancer again

[Sparky]

Automatic? I had to select it, it was unchecked when I checked it.

Here's one running. Not a ram hog at all, not like firefox

You probably did so early, They have been working on this all day. The last post by the WCG CA said it is automatic and was when I looked....because I did not check it and it was checked

I only looked to see about the requirements and noticed it.

@ 4x4, how much virtual memory does it use??

[brot]

those things seem to be calculated with the rosetta app, some of us already have exp with that one

Here ya go. Damn, I thought I had that column selected.

I just put all on my account on Cancer. I left the ones on the Clan to run all but weather

THANKS,
looks like it will be an easy project to run, just long work units.

I couldn't run the first cancer project because of ram issues.

Long? Hah, IMO any of the WCG units are short - F@H units are the long buggers, 24 hours + for some of them

How do you only choose the cancer project?

Got to WCG page and click on my projects. Uncheck all but the Cancer one and leave "if nothing is available run other projects" so your pc's will not sit idle when there is no work.

Looks like boinc has overestimated these a little, I'm over 68% finished in just under 2 hours.

EDIT: Just finished in 2 hrs 48 min.

I had a few the took about 2 1/2 to 2 3/4 hours on my Q6600 on XP64.

Hmm, might have to switch my main computer over to just crunch the cancer work units. Just lost my grandmother to cancer in the spring and the research institutions listed are the clinics that tried to treat her.

Thanks bud.

Looks like these hcc workunits are as long as the faah ones. Both workunits i completed finished in about 3,5h

well i just noticed it today. glad that they are back. another good cause to crunch for!

*whistles* How about compared to my firefox? I just have have a few tabs open... a few dozen... err probably much closer to a dozen dozen(a gross). I really should go through them and close a bunch...

Well, it does look like it's running pretty easy on ram compared to the other projects, you could probably even get by with only a gig of ram for a quad with these workunits.

Just an FYI for those of you crunching HCC with Linux:

We have identified a problem with Linux that appears to affect about 8% of the runtime returned for the project (from Linux machines - Windows is running very nicely). We are still allowing work to go out on Linux because 92% of the runtime is completing correctly. We are running a debug version of the app in development attempting to catch additional information about the issue so that we can address it. If we don't get the information that we need in development, then we will be putting it into beta to run on more computers.

To the general members using Linux. If you are completing work for the project correctly, then please continue to run it. If you are getting errors on Linux, then you consider temporarily disabling the project. We are aggressively looking at this problem now and hope to have it resolved soon.
