I have MindModeling running on a desktop (Win10 64-bit) and a laptop (Win8.1 64-bit) right now. On both, the tasks will get to either 51.98%, 27%, or 2% after about 10 seconds. Then, they stay at that percentage without changing. The status still says they're running, but the time remaining either stays at ~20-30 minutes or keeps increasing the longer the task runs. This remained true until I suspended the tasks after ~4 hours. I've never needed to run a MindModeling task longer than about 35 minutes before. It seems like there is an infinite loop somewhere in the program being run.

What's even more strange is that when I manually update the project in the BOINC Manager, the event log shows it reporting completed tasks, but my system continues to run the same tasks without starting new ones and still shows the progress as unchanged.

Does anyone know what's going on or how to fix it?

If you haven't done so yet, best report this on the Mindmodeling forums. It's their applications that you have the problem with, so chances are that there's someone over there who knows how to fix it, or if this is normal or not.

Sounds like they're missing a boinc_finish() process.
