My WU has some strange peculiarities.
Runtime for now: 8d, 1h - but for the second time the progress drops from over 92 % back to 87%.
Can I do something or should I abort this WU? Or wait until the WU failes?

Usually, when the percentage goes backwards like that, something has gotten stuck. Have you rebooted that computer since the behavior began? It typically gives it a kick back to normal. The percentage may change a lot after you do that, but that's fine, just let it run for a few hours to make sure the value is increasing consistently again.
If that doesn't fix it, I'd just abort it and move to the next one.

Most probably an error has been detected during calculations and test has been restarted from last known-good point.
Just wait until it completes.
This does not necessary means that your hardware is faulty. On some tests, LLR program takes preventive action when precision of calculations does not look good (even if results are still valid).

Yes, after the first "stuck" I rebooted the computer. But it reappeared. | |
