Hi@all,

one little question about the usage of RAM:
in this moment, each of my two rosetta-threads uses OVER one GB of SWAP-space, and one of them uses over 700 MB of RAM ADDITIONAL to the swap-space.
IMHO is the Credits/Resource-Consumption ratio far away from a fair relation!
Or is rosetta only happy about my 2GB of RAM?

Ok, to sum it up: the usage of resources does NOT match the few credits which i get for the work.

PS: Sorry for my bad english

do the tasks that are taking up all the RAM begin with GP04?

On mine they all do begin with gp04 but not all of them take that much ram. Some only take 75mb or so others take 750+ mb so either there is some sort of a memory leak or some sort of other error.

I am getting the exact same thing. My first gp04 unit is taking 780 MB and the second is currently at 118 MB.

do the tasks that are taking up all the RAM begin with GP04?

I have two such tasks in queue, the first of which will begin processing in 3 or 4 hours. I will be sure to monitor them closely and report their behavior here.

from Rhiju in another thread:

"Hi Everybody:
Sorry for checking in a little late on this thread. I'm a bit puzzled that the FOLD_AND_DOCK_SUBSYSTEM workunits are taking up so much memory, but I've canceled all those jobs, and won't send any more out until we reduce the memory requirement! Apologies! Thanks for posting so quickly about the problem. It wasn't apparent on ralph.

Also: if you have one of these workunit in your queue, please feel free to cancel it rather than risk a system slowdown due to virtual memory problems."

Thx to all!
It's exactly what you've written: the gp04-run.
One of the two results got it'scredits now ... 9.something, that matches the used resources not really...
Till this problem is fixed, im crunching for some other projects ...

greets!

When you read that you will see that they were canceled so you will not get anymore of them. They can't do anything about what is on your system, so just abort them if they geve problems you will not get any more of them. You don't have to stop crunching for the program, just get new work.

I don't wish to add confusion to the mix, but none of the gp04 tasks in my queue have produced any unusual memory usage...

That is because the system of yours that ran them has 2 gig's of memory, most of us run one gig and many less than that. Your other system with less mamory did not do any of those yet, but I see it has one waiting to run.

Thanks for the detective work :D

That other system, the one with about .75G of RAM is running a gp04 WU right now. It's ticking along with 42% memory usage... go figure.

That system also has a 1M (well, almost) cache, so that may be part of the reason it isn't dipping so heavily into RAM.

Best Regards
