Is there a way to not get 9 day F@H task?

I got this little beast on my R9 280 and well, I dont fold 24/7 and only fold/boinc a bit each day, is there a way to stop this kind of projects coming through? Its a tad too long. Or is it bad calculation? I cant remember running F@H on this computer for ages.

That 9d estimate is wrong. You have to wait a few % to complete before it get's accurate. You'll soon see that time going down to.

how long has the job been running?

My gtx970 often gets jobs that show 7 days at first and then come down to 10 hours or so.

Don't worry, everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) that plays with F@H eventually gets that little jump scare.

Can't you abort WU to get new ones (and get banned in the process)?

You can abort a WU that is very large (in file size) while its downloading by simply killing the task.

You can also limit the (file-)size of the WUs with some slot options but that doesn't work properly.

The problem is, that the file size not really correlates to the duration of that WU.

I have had WUs that were 80mb and took 3 hours on my 970 and others were 25mb and took way longer.

Exactly - you can do this. Shortly though you'll stop getting QRB's which will impact your score more than anything. And if continued, yes, your IP will be banned.
