Just got 5 WAH2 tasks, all exited within 25 seconds with this error message:

<stderr_txt>
Signal 11 received, exiting...
10:54:27 (4520): called boinc_finish(193)
Regional Worker:: CPDN process is not running, exiting, bRetVal = 1, checkPID=5188, selfPID=5188, iMonCtr=2
Controller:: CPDN process is not running, exiting, bRetVal = 1, checkPID=5188, selfPID=1904, iMonCtr=1
Model crash detected, will try to restart...
Leaving CPDN_Main::Monitor...
10:54:31 (1904): called boinc_finish(0)

Can somebody help me by telling me what is wrong here?

I wonder if it is related to the current latest post on this thread http://climateapps2.oerc.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/forum_thread.php?id=8176

These tasks need quite a lot more memory and you just have 1GB/core on that machine. Might be worth going to BOINC settings and only using half your cores?

Thanks Dave, for the suggestion. :)

Right now, with 9 CPDN tasks running (4 WAH2 and 5 PNW) memory use is 6 Gb, with another 6Gb as cache.

Unless I have a failing memory controller, Windows should be able to keep every task fed with sufficient working space.

Windows Task Manager is not very detailed, so maybe I should look for a better tool to find out how much my memory load really is.

I use Sysinternals Process Explorer.

The Sysinternals suite started off as a third party freeware product. Microsoft bought it up 9 years ago and at least one of the original developers is still involved in its development.
