Also, (some?, many?, most?) ARP1-tasks that need another wingman seem to take hours to be waiting to be sent to one of the other voulnteers; I've seen several examples, like those mentioned by Grumpy Swede: ARP1_0015421_138_2 took 9 hours, ARP1_0012995_138_2 10 hours (while ARP1_0012995_138_3 only took 1 hour).
----------------------------------------Anyway, I've received 9 resends during the night, which isn't that bad after a good night's sleep  Adri PS Two more arrived one minute ago.   (Downloaded both together in just 30 seconds.)PPS If you want to try a new weekend puzzle, see here.  [Edit 2 times, last edit by adriverhoef at May 13, 2023 8:47:58 AM] |

Mark,
I can confirm your observation: All resends from today had been finally validated within an hour. All older resends still "Pending Validation". |

adri, Grumpy Swede
Just a thought on 12995. Might the discrepancy relate to how long the different copies took to download? Only explanation that I can come up with. Mike |

I also have 6 work units that I returned on 8, 9, 10 and 11 May pending validation. For each of these units, both _0 and _1 were returned within the deadline, and at the latest on the 11th.

This one validated pretty quick. Only took about 20 minutes or so. The Windows 8.1, is my task:

Mark, MyrCu,I can confirm your observation: All resends from today had been finally validated within an hour. All older resends still "Pending Validation". Thank you. For me, almost all tasks returned between 15:00 UTC on May 12 and 19:30 UTC on May 13 have validated. But nothing since then and, as far as I can tell, little or no progress on the earlier stuff. Cheers, Mark |

adri, Grumpy Swede Just a thought on 12995. Might the discrepancy relate to how long the different copies took to download? Only explanation that I can come up with. Mike (All times in UTC.) Mike, I've observed the last 45 ARP1-tasks that were sent into my direction.  The numbers 44 and 45 (the oldest in this list) follow a normal pattern: a task that is not returned within its deadline is immediately being resent to another device (as _2, _3, etc.). I received number 44 at 2023-05-12T09:04:12 (where task _1 timed out at 2023-05-12T09:03:59): <44> ARP1_0010993_138_0 Linux openSU Error 2023-05-06T09:00:27 2023-05-07T15:09:59 Then it lasted till 2023-05-12T18:00:04 (9 hours later) before I got another one, 43, where the deadline expired 5 hours before the copy reached me (!): <43> ARP1_0017950_138_0 Linux Ubuntu Valid 2023-05-06T12:16:20 2023-05-09T06:39:42 Number 42 came in 8 hours after the expiration of the deadline for task _1: <42> ARP1_0019451_138_0 Linux Debian Valid 2023-05-06T13:41:18 2023-05-09T11:03:44 Number 41 took over 10 hours before it was resent: <41> ARP1_0021799_138_0 CentOS Linux No Reply 2023-05-06T14:43:24 2023-05-12T14:43:24 The latest task that I received, number 1 of this list — that was compiled when I started writing this post — arrived here at 9 o'clock in the morning: <1> ARP1_0005714_139_0 Linux Debian Error 2023-05-06T23:39:43 2023-05-12T23:40:43That is more than 33 hours after the deadline of task _0. Do you see what is happening here? In the meantime I've received another two ARP1-tasks  , I've numbered them -1 and -2:<-1> ARP1_0013580_139_0 Linux Ubuntu P. Valid. 2023-05-07T01:41:53 2023-05-10T09:14:16 <-2> ARP1_0013231_139_0 Linux Ubuntu P. Valid. 2023-05-07T01:41:53 2023-05-10T10:03:06 It looks like the resends are being distributed at a slower pace in the weekend, I think some sort of 'braking system' has been introduced and I believe it has been put in place by the techs last Friday, to relief the system from any download/upload problems, should they arise. Adri EDIT: I overlooked number 0  :<0> ARP1_0014398_139_0 Linux Ubuntu P. Valid. 2023-05-07T01:41:53 2023-05-10T11:07:26 [Edit 1 times, last edit by adriverhoef at May 14, 2023 1:02:49 PM] |

I think you are on to something Adriverhoef. I think there is a delay or slowing of ARP WUs being sent out. https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/contribution/workunit/301881105 This is my work unit that has a "waiting to be sent" status on it.

Your explanation is as good as any, but the error on your 44 seems to be an oddity - it waited 5 days before even being created! Or maybe it was but was delayed until its deadline. Mike |
