Hi, I am running Rosetta@Home on two computers, one 2016 MacBook Pro, and one PC Laptop purchased and set up last year. My Macbook has been downloading and running tasks successfully, however, my PC has never downloaded any Rosetta@Home or Ralph@home tasks. I am not sure why this is, or how to fix it, and would appreciate any support that could be offered.

According to Rosetta’s records the pc has processed 65 WUs over the time it’s been connected so we need to find out what has changed since it did so.

First place to look is the computer preferences page, especially the sections that deal with suspending activity and memory allocation. Could you list the values you have set?

And the Mac hasn't done any Rosetta work for a long time either.

I'm wondering what the Resource share is? And the BOINC Manager on each system- make sure Rosetta is not suspended.


EDIT- and the WCG grid RAC is very low for having 2 systems doing work.
How many hours a day are they on? When they are on, how many hours of that time is BOINC work possible? (are they set to suspend BOINC work when the system is in use or non-BOINC CPU usage is greater xxx%?). How large is the cache setting?

I'm thinking they're not getting any work because there is no chance if it being returned in time to make the deadline.
