I've found that everage WU size is 4-5 Mb. It's too much for modem
----------------------------------------Sometimes, WU's gets processed before next WU downloaded. And processor just stand idle. first time, I've decided that it's a Rosetta application, but the same happened 5 times one after another. Is it a real size of workunit for BOINC-based Rosetta?

It is about average size, I see that you are using BOINC. As you can see by my sig there are many different projects which you can attach. If you want a quick WU I would suggest Sztaki, on my onld P III a WU took about one hour whilst the most is climate which on my P5 machine is going to ake about 1500 hrs CPU time. I would suggest that you look for another project so the machine is not running on empty.

Hello ooDAV,
All that I know is that Viktors once posted that BOINC does not compress the files that it sends, whereas the UD Windows files are compressed. The FightAIDS@Home work units are very small. If I were on dialup, that would be my preferred project. mycrofth |

I'll start to think about other projects when I'll move more workstations to BOINC. mycrofth The FightAIDS@Home work units are very small. OK. Let's wait for Windows BOINC FAAH version |

WCG does not support Teamstats for BOINC. Credits are counted for useres and hosts but not for teams. Many BOINC-Teams lost interest for this project because of this situation.
Will the BOINC-teamstats ever be available? "...Perhaps in the future ..., however, for now we will not have the team file available" is the answer you will get from WCG - if you ask. Well, I will be back in a year or two and have a look again - perhaps. |

WCG is a newcomer in the BOINC arena and is working very hard to get "up to speed" with all the things around the BOINC agent.
----------------------------------------WCG is also working very hard to bring on new projects like the recently added FAAH. So it is not a matter of WCG slighting one project or another or one agent or another or for that matter one language or another. There are just a great many things on the work slate and by the very nature of development; some get worked on now and some a bit later. I would hope that potential contributors not be put off by this rapidly decreasing immaturity but rather see the cause that we are working for as worth tolerating the temporary inconveniencies. |
