Hi!
Nice to have you back!

On my machines nanoHUB is running as before: Lots of valid tasks, some invalid tasks.
What I also want to mention is that your server is still keeping all those old tasks in the database, so having a look at my tasks is taking several dozen seconds before the first page comes up. I still think it might be a good idea to get those older results out of it and push them somewhere else.

Good morning.
Each time I want to have a look at my results, I notice that the old ones are still being there. That is after having waited for a significantly long period of time.
I think you should take the old ones out of the database after a reasonable short time to lessen the strain on the server.
It's not a big problem if some few people want to have a look at their results simultaneously, but in case anyone should do a bigger race on nanoHUB (this might happen next year in a Boinc Pentathlon or Formula Boinc sprint) and lots of people want to access their results, while others want to have a look at their stats, you might run into trouble.
In the past, races have often shown that some projects' servers weren't powerful enough to handle high amounts of traffic and/or requests.
Thanks for reading.

On this machine I have the same kind of problem.
Just aborted a bunch of tasks after seeing that not even a single one was successfully validated.
Please have a look into this.
Thanks a lot!

Hi.
The cosmology method worked fine on my windows box.
Will try it on my Linux box once I switch it on again (probably after my holiday).
Thanks again!

Hi.
Thanks a lot!
I'll try one or both methods.

Hi there.
I have five machines running vbox-projects. This project is the only one that gives the following message for two of the machines:
"Virtualbox (5.2.8) installed, CPU has hardware virtualization support but it is disabled". vbox version number is different on the other machine.
In fact, I enabled virtualization in the BIOS on both machines.
One of them is running Win7, one Debian. Machine id's are 1049 and 1060.

I'd be happy about any hints that might help me with this.

Hi.
I'm running an i5 with only vbox projects on two of its cores: Cosmology, LHC and NanoHUB.
While the others occupy both cores per work-unit, NanoHUB only uses one, thus running two work-units at a time.
Rotation with the other projects is just fine.

Don't observe the behavior on my other machines though.
