1) Message boards : BOINC client : Bug? - Shouldn't my climate prediction task be high priority? (Message 49913)
Posted 20 Jul 2013 by Cadeus
Post:

I have what I think is a bug. I have a climate prediction task that estimates it will complete 2 hours before he deadline. I have boinc set so that no new tasks will be downloaded from any of my connected projects.

There are many SZTAKI tasks to be done (about 15) and 2 climate prediction tasks.

the laptop has a quad core. I have to suspend all the SZTAKI tasks except two in order to let the climate prediction tasks run. 1 climate prediction task has 12 days left and about 4 weeks until dead line. This one is running at high priority. The 2nd climate prediction task will finish 2 hours before the dead line at the current pace and it is not running at high priority. This 2nd climate prediction task does report a dead line warning.

If I have more than 3 SZTAKI tasks running, the 2nd cllimate prediction task goes to "waiting to run" state.
I expect the 2nd climate prediction should be running at high priority.
Why isn't it?

Here is the beginning of my output. I just rebooted so it is small. ugh and poorly formatted. This was copied from BoincView.
