Is there something awry with this wu?
cheers.

Is there something awry with this wu?

The project team have said that the 2952 series is very chaotic with much more extreme runtime variability than other series. It seems that your task has a very chaotic parameter set. As long as the task doesn't hit the runtime limit for your system it should complete normally.

They cancelled the first batch of this series a couple of weeks ago (one of my cancelled tasks was at around 80% and had been running for 142 hours on my C2Q Q6600 @ 2.40GHz XP system), ran some checks on the parameter combinations and issued a new batch last week.

My C2D T7300 @ 2.00GHz Vista system has had runtimes ranging from 1 hour to almost 38 hours for the current batch of 2952 tasks and one user has reported a task running for 101 hours. The project team are investigating the parameter combinations for the current batch. I'd guess this is likely to be an iterative process, with a significant reduction in the number of upper end runtimes each time.
