IIRC, I only had one -1 last week while I was trying the x32h build but that might have been before I tried it. This time I haven't seen any yet. I'm still running out that mess I got myself into on the 16th so it is the same batch of WUs. I don't like taking 5 hours to complete a GPU WU but it beats erroring out after that length of time. (They usually hit me when I wasn't looking so I don't know how much time was wasted on them before.)

This one showed me with CPU time of 00:06:31 and an elapsed time of 05:14:51. I think these are the ones that used to give me the -1 errors when they hung like that. I don't know if it's something you did in the new X32f but if so I'm grateful. So far I haven't had one -1 error this time.

I looked it up in my tasks list and my wingman had completed it on his CPU. From what I could tell it took him about 3000 seconds longer than others he had completed but I didn't check the angle ranges on the rest of his work.. Will be interesting to see for sure if I get credit for it when we come back from the outage. I blamed me playing my Solitaire game but now I'm wondering if it might be something in the WUs.

I think it might be a good idea if you'd capture that WU and the result file, pack them in a .zip or .7z, whatever, and attach here. Include the <result> section extracted from client_state.xml if you're willing to take the time to find it. Most likely the extra CPU and Elapsed time are from something which can't be found by rerunning the task, but Gaussian fitting is very data dependent and there's a lot of that for those lower midrange ARs. We might as well take advantage of the outage situation keeping BOINC from immediately deleting everything interesting...

Ok, let's see if I did this right.Let me know if you need anything else.

Edit:  So much for the first try, hopefully this one will work.

Josef W. Segur:
Unfamiliar tools sometimes can be difficult, and I may not have been clear what I wanted. The actual WU and the result file are in the project directory with filenames 21ap10ag.22479.6202.5.10.29 and 21ap10ag.22479.6202.5.10.29_0 . Maybe create a temporary folder/directory someplace and copy those files to it. If you highlight both then right click on the pair, then the 7-Zip submenu will offer the option to create an archive with the folder name and either a .zip or .7z extension, and will by default save the created archive in the same folder. I do have the good data you extracted from client_state.xml, but you could have it saved in the same folder and highlight all three files to make the archive a full set.
