Hi everybody.

Checking my messages this morning, I noticed that that my work unit sulphur_haxi_100807318_0 (which was completed about 75%) seems to have restarted from the begining.

Strangely, \"progress\" turned back to 0%, but CPU time stayed to 1272:27:35 and \"to completion\" time jumped from about 350 hours (as far as I can remenber) to 1558:34:06.

Strangely again, after looking closely to 2 loops, this work unit seems effectively to be crunched from start, but \"progress\" is sticked to 0% and no longer increases.

A little help ?

... Well, at 11:18 GMT, everything is now ok...
Progress is 77,37% and completion time 372:24.

Didn\'t understand everything... but it works.
Crunching is a school of patience and confidence...

Any idea of what happened ?

Sometimes soon after restarting, progress shows 0% (while everything is loading from disk). Not sure if that was the problem or not.

I would recommend backing up the boinc directory though, very useful if a crash does happen (make sure you copy it when boinc has been exited).
