It would be nice if there were intermediate save points in the next version of the application. Thks

They don't have checkpoints in Gaia so I'm not hopeful on this one |

At least the WUs don't take long so you don't loose much work on restart. Hopefully they will have checkpoints if they become longer. |

In reply to TLD's message of 27 Oct 2025: At least the WUs don't take long so you don't loose much work on restart. So , restarting jobs after ~3,5 hours x WU (near 90-100 % to completed) ... for me it's a waste of time , waste of resources and energy lost Restarting one or more WU's after 1h or more elapsed time working it's a pitty. a checkpoint every 20-30 minutes would be a good compromise |

Hello Spacious team, Once again posting here and advocating for the adding of checkpoints, because of the lack of it its literally impossible for me to crunch this project as I have to stop task execution every so often |

As this is an EU funded project, by not having checkpoints, it does not comply with the Energy Efficiency Directive (EU/2023/1791) by wasting energy. |
