When can we expect an updated scoreboard ?

Pre-caching wu before races isn't something new, this was very common back in the SETI@home "classic"-races. With the high probability the servers would go down during any race, waiting too long before trying to upload could lead to few or no returned results for the race.

BTW, projects having server-problems during races wasn't just a thing of the past, as the last BOINC Pentathlon showed, AFAIK all projects, including WCG, had problems during the Pentathlon.

While in some races only work downloaded and returned during the race will be counted, for this to work the project must support this option, since it's impossible to verify if someone has downloaded work beforehand or not. While atleast Primegrid does support this option during their monthly races, I'm not sure if this is the case for WCG. If it is, it must be a choise selected while setting-up the challenge.


In any case, thanks to SETI.Germany for holding this birthday challenge.

Due to MCM being paused, was a little late to enable FAAH, and apparently none of my computers has ran FAAH/VINA before.

Donning the shades, a normal Saturday morning has recently been in the 165-180 range. This is today's 12 hour rush:

207:112:03:10:24 298,711,371 851,735

My PV dropped from 330 hours to 240, and those were not BETA results :D

(seems the team of the land bringing the world Ferrari, Maserati, Ducati and Pizze was at 3 when I looked... did not even know they were in ;)

It is always a challenge for the techs because of the big load, coming up to the servers on our challenges, because most of the big teams are changing their priority on this project.

I'll do my best to keep the grid informed about those events, so that they are able to do things, that are possible, for not let us take the grid down, because of the rising server load. :)
