I have noticed my "To Completion" time has skyrocketed, apparently I have 6 WUs that will each take 26hrs to complete.

No wonder Berkeley are proud to advertise the fact that the servers are matching demand....because the demand is WRONG!

Of course the servers can cope when my "cache" is equal to nearly over a weeks worth....when in reality it is a days worth or less.

I think this is very sly of Berkeley to have done this.

There are some more posts with this topic.

As far as I heard - Berkeley will fix this problem during the next days...

HAHA, you say boinc is sly but u are lazy, as srmurphy said there are many posts. Plus this is because they have added a debuging program recently.
Good luck

The other problem is now I also dont have any work units to work this evening because BOINC said I had enough work for 36 hrs when I had about 7 hrs worth of work so now my computer is sitting idle. And no I dont want to subscribe to the Predictor project -- I joined SETI - I might join Astropulse when it become available. Since this completion "situation" has been around for a few days I had hope that by now it would of been resolved - guess not... so for the guys at Berkely -- ADD ANOTHER SPLITTER!!! and grab some Comp Sci geeks and have them help fix your problems!!
