Is it safe to assume (I hate to use that word), how about speculate, that means after our current WU's are crunch, additional WU's won't be downloaded for XX amount of time until the backlog is more current? |

I've just edited my previous post to validator backlog. Just let BOINC download when it can. For future reference try setting your cache to at least 2 days. General preferences, Connect to network about every (determines size of work cache; maximum 10 days). (Mine is currently 2.5 days). Sir Arthur C Clarke 1917-2008 |

Personally, I would just let BOINC plow along like you normally have it set. We've had fairly hefty validator backlogs in the past and they've cleared without issues. The last I heard Bruno was handling the majority of uploads, so I'm not too concerned about work getting lost as was last week early on. Also I noticed on the Scarecrow graphs the total number awaiting validation dropped slightly with everything running now, so maybe they've got it straightened out and we've turned the coner on the backlog.

LOL, yeah this time it looks like gas prices. Up quick, down slow! :-) 1 US Gallon = 3,785 litre, or? In Germany: 1 litre = 1,27 € (95 Octane) Then we must pay in Germany for 1 Gallon= 4,81 € or 6,4221 US$ How much you must pay in the USA? ;-) Friendly greetings! |

Backlog is decreasing slowly: I thought I had alot of backlog at ~2,600, nothing compared to you, you're a crunching machine. |

Backlog is decreasing slowly: That is the server backlog, not mine. :-) I usually crunch about 5-6 WUs a day with 3 PCs. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/hosts_user.php?userid=8562926 Sir Arthur C Clarke 1917-2008 |

Yep, but at leat it seems to be staying at around 33,000 and I have had some come thru, but it is definitely running slow. |
