Re: [BOINC] Projects crunch extremely slow.

Hmm I've jumped ship on shitty microsoft and went to linux. Runs real well. Just got boinc running now and it seems wacky. It takes about 3minutes to get 1% on the WU but it says i'm 24 hours to completion which seems really odd. Ought to be more like 5-6 hours.

Maybe I just need to let a couple work through before "to completion" works properly.

Perhaps that's the same issue you are having?

Are you even sure you're going slowly? How slow is your work going?

When I first start it runs great, at full spend.
After about 5 min. system in task manager starts eating up to half the cpus, slowing down the program I'm running to a crawl.
Tried Process Exployer and Process Meter without luck to find what's eating up the cpu's.
Thanks for the reply.

You said that the system process in task manager is hogging CPU. In ProcessExplorer, right click the system process and select properties. Then check the thread tab and see what in the system process is taking the cpu.

Thanks TE.
I'll double check this in the evening when I get home from work.

Until you've gone through about a month's worth of WU's, your estimated completion times will always be high, as the project needs to adjust under Linux now.

When I first started under Ubuntu, 24+ hour estimates were common for me, and now my completion estimates are down to between 14+ and 16+ hours, on a P4 3.2ghz HT single core system. (This system is like 4 years old!!!)

Sit back, relax and enjoy the new OS and let BOINC get adjusted to the new diggs.

I followed your advice and found several instances of ntoskrnl.exe running. Several using high cpu.
I played with it and suspended several that were running without incidence.
At this time system is showing 0 cpu usage.
Hope it stays this way now.
TE and everyone else who responded, I thank you!
