How can I see the progress (percentage done etc.) running a comand line client (Mac, Linux)?
This information is kept in the file client_state.xml in the fraction_done tag.There are third party tools that read it. If you want to have a quick look, open a Terminal, cd to the boinc directory and grep for fraction done: cd BOINC; grep fraction_done client_state.xml You may put this in a loop for watching it continously: cd BOINC ; sh -c ‘while grep fraction_done client_state.xml ; do sleep 10 ; done The value shown is the fraction of the work done, so a value of 0.34 means 34% done.
