Computation error after 8hours + of CPU usage is a bit harsh. Certainly if it happens to three tasks in a row. Is this something that is monitored by the boind team? Is there something I can do, or should not do?

I went out and aborted all the pre_helical_bundles jobs and suggest you do the same on windows

A rather silly thing to do, as they're the most common type at present. If you had looked at your Valid list, you would have seen that the vast majority of Valid Tasks are of the type you just aborted.
And the fact is you (usually) get Credit for Tasks that error out (although it is less than that for those that don't).

The failure rate for these Tasks is generally around 10%- that is 90% of them do complete OK (just checked my Task list, and the current failure rate for them is presently 6%, the highest i've noticed is around 15%). That has been the case for several months now.

Hi! Does anyone know why so many computation errors are happening? I had 4 work units stopping just a few minutes after the begining of their processing.

There is a problem with the _5nvx_ degrader Tasks- they all error out in a couple of minutes or less.
All the other degrader Tasks (well, almost all) process without issue.

Every 15 seconds my jobs terminate with "Computation error" in the status field. HELP! She used to run great but on April 18 2022 it quit processing jobs. i got her running again after installing boinc_7.16.11_windows_x86_64_vbox.exe and poking a hole in my Windows Defender Firewall for boinc.exe and boincmgr.exe.

Rebooted several times after power off shutdown after changes.
