Something strange happend now.

All tasks in BM stoped counting in progres meter including 1 docking task and 1 wu-prop task.
1 SETI beta was at 92% when the "clock" stoped.
And the task was completed when the "clock" started to count again.
And a new task was at 9%.

Windows Gui worked and SIV showed that all 3 GPU's was running.
A bit strange.....Might be BM 7.0.60, I dunno.

ideas anyone??


Hapend again after 20mins. All BM counters stoped for about 1min and then resumed. Win GUI works and SIV reports activity on all cpu and gpu's.

Ideas anyone??

I've been seeing that, on and off, for two years at least. I put it down to the new Windows laptop I bought then, rather than any particular version of BOINC.

Well, it was new to me. Only hapend when runing seti Mb ati tasks with a low period iteration number. about 5.

But that was when new tasks where started tasks made BM counters freeze.
What I experienced here is more random. Not "connected" to task routines.

running 7.0.62 now.

I have an explanation for the BM pauses.

When setting -sbs to 128 or 256 i get BM counters pauses and after about a min they do resume.

running Seti Beta mb ATI tasks
using an empty cmdline.txt which equals -sbs 64 gives no pauses.

problem about the pauses equals stressed PCIE bus in my case.
