Anybody else have a number of valid results get purged recently? Alinator, If I understand correctly, it's normal for completed, validated workunits to be purged from anyones results list. This doesn't seem to be a continuous process, but, every now and then, all the results are sorted out, and the database tidied up. Ken Phillips BOINC question? Look here "The beginning is the most important part of the work." - Plato |

Anybody else have a number of valid results get purged recently? OK. I was just wondering, since I'm relatively new with using BOINC and have been manually keeping track of data for now and all of a sudden my piddly 100 or so results got severely culled while other users with vastly far more haven't. I guess the Sun's just haven't gotten around to everyone's yet! :-) Alinator |

Lots of my results have been deleted recently, and before as well. You're not alone. :) |

Yeah, but now I've got a personal database project. Like I needed something else new to do! :-) Try BoincLogX from here which will keep track of all your processed workunit information, and while you're there I highly recommend SETI MapView which will plot their positions on a very nice starmap and highlight the interesting signals for you. Just because it's Boinc doesn't mean it can't be as fun as Classic. :) Dig |

Yeah, but now I've got a personal database project. Like I needed something else new to do! :-) Cool!!! Thanks for the link. I did Classic awhile back, then got busy with other things and sort of drifted away. Caught wind about BOINC 8 or 9 months ago and took a look, but decided I didn't have the time to spend then getting to know it enough to use correctly. Have spent the lions share of my free time the last month getting to know it and easing my personal equipment online with it (hopefully without spoffing the projects or myself too badly)! Personally I like BOINC better, mostly because I do computers not because they are easy, but because they are hard (to get the max out of)! :-) Alinator |
