Hi SystemViper, some of our upload/download servers are affected by the networking issue and thus file transfers may be throttled when server resources are not available to handle them.

I agree. The networking problem is the main thing now, It get loads of units IF I can download them. Constant transient http error....

Re: Work Units building up in

Same here, I am almost out of crunchable WUs and my cores are sitting idle. Meanwhile, by the time downloads restart the pending WUs will be outdated.

Re: Work Units building up in

Are the number of WU being downloaded a part of the problem? In the past I might see around x2 (one extra set)6 of WUs download for each CPU I've permitted to run. So 20 WUs for 10 CPUs for example. Now I'm seeing ~x7?

Re: Work Units building up in

On my side it is more a problem of getting the downloads to complete.

Large files tend to download without any issue, small files you have to hit retry anywhere from 10 to 100 times before it completes. Especially sub 1kb files.


But in general transfers time out a lot.

Re: Work Units building up in

This is a real problem and it is difficult for me to manually manage the downloads on my 4 computers.

But it is stated on this thread that they are working hard to correct the problem and that a solution should arrive shortly.

Re: Work Units building up in

hi, you can do this to force downloading :

the really dirty way is creating a crontask with
"/usr/bin/boinccmd --network_available" every 10sec
(no need to run it as root)

and by user ca05065
For Windows users the command is:
"C:\Program Files\boinc\boinccmd" --network_available
The quotes are required because of the space between Program and Files.
