I've been seeing a lot of WU's Aborted by the Project, I haven't noticed any but i hope these WU's are not being Aborted once their started. I know some Projects will do this and I don't run them because of it.

The Orbit Project was good for that, aborting WU's after you had 100 hr's on them already without giving any credit for the work done already. I hope that's not the case here too ... ???

This may have two explanations:

We have manually aborted some WUs no longer needed to let space for the new ones. If we have aborted running WUs and those did grant no credit it was by mistake as we targeted any that didn't started yet. Sorry for that if that has been the case.

The second explanation is due to the usage of the BOINC settings "target_nresults" and "quorum" refering to the number of results per WU. When a certain quorum of results is reached the server automatically cancels those already sent. That is why the number of aborted by project WUs has recently increased.

Any other question please ask.

Thanks,
ignasi

The "pYIpYV1" batch was corrupt and cancelled by the server.
