It will not fix design flaw IMHO. BOINC main design (and BOINC devs always insisted on that) - to allow automatic operation. Such "way for user" would be workaround, but not proper fix. BOINC should not kill task that makes progress. Period. The single point when such task can be killed - when it besides deadline already. Then kill and recompute estimate to avoid work allocation, if needed. If any BOINC estimates tell that task too slow - adapt estimates. If task completion progress ticks - DON'T KILL task. That's quite simple. _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
