Thanks Stick,

Yes - the beta problem seems to fix that problem.
Now, hopefully it processes correctly.

I've been using the Beta (with no problems) for about 2 months now. And, I had been having processing problems with 4.79 (after upgrading to BOINC 4.45 from 4.19). It's supposedly little slower though (maybe 10%). But, since most of my WU's were crashing with 4.79, the speed didn't matter to me. Good luck!

Hi, Stick!

If I remember correctly, the 0.18 beta exacts the 10% time increase only on AMDs; Mobasoft's Intel family (and yours) should see little or no increase in crunchtime - something less than 2%.

Michael,

When I changed to the Beta, I was not concerned with the time issue (and now it's too late to look at any of my 4.79 results); but, if you look at the new 0.18 results from Mobasoft, it appears the Beta is closer to 20% slower for him.

Stick

P.S. - When you get a chance, please look over the problem JP is having at Message boards : Problems and Bug Reports : master file fetch failed. If my last suggestion doesn't help, I am about out of ideas.

Stick,

Have you taken a look at Mobasoft's most recent result, host 423627, result 2381031? Looks as it the previous result was a fluke.

I've been following JP's thread, and you're already in territory that's beyond my knowledge frontier. 'Fraid that one's out of my rookie range, sorry. :-(

Your friend,

Michael

Looks I am the one with the "decaf coffee" problem here.
