This WU has been running for over 3 days + on a 6 core machine using 4 cores.
Nobody has completed this. So, should I continue running this?
https://yafu.myfirewall.org/yafu/workunit.php?wuid=665233

As long as the factor.log in the slot directory changes at least every hour, the workunit makes progress and should be continued.

Hmm...
The last entry of factor.log was 2 days ago....

08/25/16 07:03:15 v1.34.5 @ CONTRA, nfs: commencing lattice sieving with 4 threads

So, abort?

If possible, restart boinc and check if it continues.

Restarted BIONIC, now it is showing elapsed time as 1 day+ instead of 3 days+!
The latest entry of factor.log:

08/27/16 09:44:55 v1.34.5 @ CONTRA, nfs: previous data file found - commencing search for last special-q

This WU hit my machine and doesn't seem to make any progress anymore ... here is the factor.log file :

The log stops at 16.. Try to stop Boinc and check if the wu continues and the log is written again. The wu should continue from where it is. If not abort the wu.

It resumed from checkpoint (I guess) ... let's see if it can go to the end this time ...

The WU stalled again almost immediately after BOINC restart, so something is wrong with it, you can pull it off distribution ... :(

I canceled this workunit.

I was computing this composite on my Linux system without Boinc without problems.
