I noticed that the last 2 days, I get wu's that are only being distributed to two computers instead of the usually 4.

What's the deal? When will the 2 other wu's be distributed? Or is the result of 2 wu's sufficient to grant credits?

Now I've been away for some days, so it is possible I missed something. But I can't find anything related to this topic in the News-section.

Regards,

While the scheduler was being moved to a different machine, the setiboincdata dns record had to be updated across all of the Internet. During the transition the feeder's were alternating which results they were allowed to send out. You can think of it as evens on one server and odds on the other.

As traffic died off from the old server it could no longer assign work as fast as the new server.

Now that the scheduler is all on one machine again, all the results that haven't been sent out, will be sent out.

Thanks for the information, Rom!

Probably this explains why do I keep receiving the following, Rom?
