Hi, I have this WU, which is 9 days over its deadline. I've been waiting on it patiently and avoided killing it but I now see that is says it's "Timed out - no response". What's going on here? This WU has been hogging my machine for the last week. What should I do with it? Thanks. |

I check the running WU as follows: - Open file factor.log from folder Boinc\slots\nn - check if new lines are generated at regular intervals - check taskmanager, details, if programs active with filename like: gnfs-lasieve4I13e.exe. The Boinc Function "Show Graphic" show you the type of sequence. If it is a Open End then it take a long time to find the next number. When the job is finished I check the factordb.com for the new result. Sample of factor.log: ... 04/27/16 14:24:30 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing nfs on c126: 521622676708542983109237724110101200655768213087042334643072769232764085149608182975748703464227023791340020676553772627767323 04/27/16 14:24:30 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing poly selection with 4 threads 04/27/16 14:24:30 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: setting deadline of 8047 seconds 04/27/16 16:37:08 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: completed 32 ranges of size 250 in 7958.5150 seconds 04/27/16 16:37:08 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: best poly = # norm 5.506486e-012 alpha -7.112219 e 1.450e-010 rroots 3 04/27/16 16:37:08 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 16:53:09 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 17:09:19 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, **************************** 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, Starting factorization of 521622676708542983109237724110101200655768213087042334643072769232764085149608182975748703464227023791340020676553772627767323 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, using pretesting plan: normal 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, no tune info: using qs/gnfs crossover of 95 digits 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, **************************** 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: previous data file found - commencing search for last special-q 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: parsing special-q from .dat file 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing nfs on c126: 521622676708542983109237724110101200655768213087042334643072769232764085149608182975748703464227023791340020676553772627767323 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: resuming with filtering 04/27/16 17:37:45 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 17:53:33 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 18:08:40 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 18:24:16 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 18:40:11 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 18:56:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 19:12:18 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, **************************** 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, Starting factorization of 521622676708542983109237724110101200655768213087042334643072769232764085149608182975748703464227023791340020676553772627767323 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, using pretesting plan: normal 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, no tune info: using qs/gnfs crossover of 95 digits 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, **************************** 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: previous data file found - commencing search for last special-q 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: parsing special-q from .dat file 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing nfs on c126: 521622676708542983109237724110101200655768213087042334643072769232764085149608182975748703464227023791340020676553772627767323 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: resuming with filtering 04/27/16 19:26:06 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 19:42:07 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads 04/27/16 19:58:36 v1.34.5 @ CRUNCHER, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads.... |
