Latest 'official' projection, from a post already x-linked 2 posts up:
----------------------------------------Greetings again, I have received more information about the batches coming down the pipeline. We are still estimated to run the 5463 batches, no update to that number. But we are about to hit more of the flexible work units that everyone was used to earlier in the year. This means that batches will begin to have the 100k work units. This will of course slow down and push the estimate back. We also have 200 batches that will be run towards the end only on PC as they will be monsters. From that information alone, my personal estimate is that we will have work for the rest of the year and into 2017. Also, since the % complete is based off of time instead of actual batches, when the estimate starts getting longer out in the future, the percentage complete will decrease. So please do not be alarmed when that happens. If you want to know why we used time instead of batch counts for % complete, that is due to the amount of data in the database that gets archived/purged over time. The start date of the project as well as estimated end date are two fields in a single table. Thanks, -Uplinger [Apr 7, 2016 4:42:07 PM] So after all the shake, rattle and Rick Astley rolling [aka Rick Roll], it's back to 2017 for an ETOC [Edit 1 times, last edit by SekeRob* at Apr 8, 2016 2:44:57 PM] |

'Into 2017' is vague. So is the research page.

enels,
Yes, the into 2017 is very vague, it is only an estimate. Things can change between now and then. We could see a huge spike in registrations, additional projects could be boarded, other projects may end freeing up runtime. I'm sorry if I can not give you a better estimate, but too many variables. Thanks, -Uplinger |

...too many variables. ... and I thought I wouldn't see multiple variable equations after collage... just goes to show you !   CJSL Crunching like a math equation... |

Just wondering how close we can get to 100% before the next drop.(*)
---------------------------------------- Freddy Fender was wondering that, too. OET1's percentage complete is still increasing at 91%, while FAH2 drops from 3 to 2% and CEP2 drops from yesterday's 46 to 45%.(*)Note: at the start of this year we have seen a drop for OET1 (from about 75% to 17%), too.

Depends on how many of the current units are there. We're currently close to batch #3000, doing ~100 batches per day.

How does the feeder work? It seems lately i have not been getting many OET projects, rather MCM & FAH2. Those two also seem to be getting the most amount of contributions based on the community page. I would think since i am singed up for all of the medical projects that i would be getting the projects with the least amount of contributions, to make up the load.

The weight in the feeder has too many technical reasons, which is why there are the Device Profiles and My Contribution > My Projects preference settings, with which you can steer your personal donations, all based on momentary availability of this or that project work units. In the case of OET, the general feeder priority is set to well below normal **. Daily / Weekly / Longer term balances you may review on the charts in the link below. For Daily visit QuickLook , for weekly / monthly and longer The Dashboard and the many other ways of slicing and dicing the historical data.
** If there are 6 projects, each would ideally get 1/6th of 100. What each actually numerical weight is I do not know, other than uplinger writing in that the newest HST1 only has a share of 1 (of 100), the lowest. |

Thanks, -Uplinger Look guys at WCG, you gave us %, but they vaguely do some good...'cause between them & SekeRobs charts & my Excel/paper calculations - we get ECD that don't make sense! Even now, as I'm writing you this - WCG on Research page says that ECD for OET is May 2016...you're telling us it's 2017, like my calcs & SekeRob charts also tells us! My suggestion is: 1. correct ECD on Research page for OET! 2. make visible ECD for ALL projects...it will go sooner & later, depending of the projects on WCG...we know that! But it's just the BEST thing I can think of, so that people don't bother you with questions...& I'll won't bother with numbers, 'cause computer will do it instead of me... thanks, L |
