What on earth is Pyinstaller? PyInstaller bundles a Python application and all its dependencies into a single package. The user can run the packaged app without installing a Python interpreter or any modules. PyInstaller supports Python 3.6 or newer, and correctly bundles the major Python packages such as numpy, PyQt, Django, wxPython, and others. |

I don't know, for example, if this project is active or abandoned |

Can us users use this to make Rosetta Python work better? Unfortunately not. We have no access to source code. |

Then I guess you have to get hold of the non-existant people at Rosetta and persuade them to use it!Can us users use this to make Rosetta Python work better?Unfortunately not. We have no access to source code. |

Hello. Any news on this one ? The PyInstaller developers released a new major version, the 5.0 with a lot of new features and bugfix. But the game is on the R@H's developers field. |

If they were to share the tools used to create the virtualbox, would anyone here be able to convert it to a non-VB task? I.e. do the work for them and send the method back? I expect they are all contracted to do specific work based on funding etc which this would fall outside of. |

Update on the AVX requirement as final confirmation, not that I think any were needed: I upgraded a 6th gen (Skylake) Pentium (no AVX) to an i5 (with AVX) and it now completes the VB tasks. |

I expect they are all contracted to do specific work based on funding etc which this would fall outside of. I successfully built earlier versions of Rosetta. I could work with you again to look at it. I saw two problems with the Python build. It demands 2.8gb of memory for each work unit and it compresses and saves 1gb+ of files to disk. I had to replace a SATA SSD with an M.2 to get enough write speed. I added memory and PrimoCache in write-back mode to reduce the write traffic to the disks. It cleared up my Rosetta problems with Python ... other than the not being able to run as many tasks. |

In LHC@home you can build "native" aoolications which don't use VirtualBox but only if you use Linux, not Windows. Tullio |

No news?? Crickets. I did not expect any response. dcdc has been quite responsive in the past, but the developers can't be bothered. The new Python application does more than take 3gb of memory per task. It also chews up your disk drives by checkpointing too frequently. Most of the problems and stalls are related to checkpointing. A checkpoint option on the preferences would help. cheers |

I'm nothing to do with the project - I just want to help where I can. |

In LHC@home you can build "native" aoolications which don't use VirtualBox but only if you use Linux, not Windows. The user must build it following an instruction liat. But its meant for the Debian Linux distro, whilel I use SuSE, so I haven'bt built it. I have no problem with VirtualBox in three BOINC projects. Tullio |
