Checked the Tech News and didn't see anything unless I missed it.

Hmmm, I've been checking and AFAICT there has been a successful stat run for the last three says straight.

This jives with my BoincStat data so maybe it's just the site you've been visiting, unless you're talking about the new cross project summary at the bottom of the 'Your Account' page, which has been screwy for SAH reporting on my account for awhile now.

If you're referring to the fact that it isn't updated in near-real time, that's because the stat sites (such as BOINCStats.com) only get updated once a day.

OK, FWIW I have noticed some 'anomalies' recently over on BoincStats regarding update intervals, etc. for my ID from time to time when other users stats seemed to be working normally, but have always been temporary (ie corrected itself in a day or two).

I checked earlier today and mine still seem to be working properly, including the site cross project one here on SAH. A couple of others have seemed to be offline recently for upgrade/updates or some other problem, but other than that seem to be in sync for me as well.

Might be something to ask Willy about over on his fora.

Regarding that, Willy has made some changes to the way BoincStats works as well, which I assumed was to better distribute the load on his servers. But as I said before I have had six updates on schedule there now since the stat generator got fixed here.

We are having major load problems on the current webserver, causing stats loading to be interrupted and thus causing an incomplete update on the webserver while the database server has a complete update. When the DB server does another update, it sends updated stats to the webserver again, and (because that's some time after the daily and the load is lower) this time it succeeds updating. This causes "weird" stats in between those updates.

But, the good news is: I'm now very busy with the preparations for replacing the webserver, for which I leave to the DC in 45 minutes.
