    Kewl welcome to the team HJ. The challenge is to pass me by. Once you've done that, I'll stop belittleling you and you can go for the top

      It's running SETI not Climate Prediction. I've been on the SETI team.

          Can't days or weeks of work be lost if a machine crashes or has to be reformatted for Climate Prediction?

            Uhm, credits? no. Work? Yes, if a model crashes then you will not be able to finish it I guess. But you will have uploaded intermediate results as you upload each 1/72nd step of a model. Even if a model is not finished, the uploaded data is still valuable to them, or so I read in the forum. I guess this holds especially true for completed phases (=24 tricks).

              And it's really the model or BOINC that must crash one way or the other. In case of a reformat, a backup and resotre of the BOINC files should do (and I am so certain of that that I am holdojg of upgrading to boinc 4.13 until a model is done).

                  Have you upgraded to 4.13 ? How? Any benefits/downsides (speedwise) ?
