Just noticed this message: 2/15/2009 11:26:03 PM|SETI@home|Message from server: (reached daily quota of 200 results) Is that from reporting or from fetching? Searched the forum but did not find any references to it. -s |

Just noticed this message: Fetching. You can report as many as you have completed, but the servers won't send you more than your quota. Linux laptop: record uptime: 1511d 20h 19m (ended due to the power brick giving-up) |

Just noticed this message: Last fall, when I fired up Q-Baby, I briefly had the same problem. Eventually the servers and BOINC realized that an Intel 2.4 GHz Quad goes through a lot more wu’s than my old 2 core, AMD 1.6 GHz. LOL. So long as you have work in the cache, don’t worry about it.

I had results in the queue so I thought it was from a reporting standpoint. I see those have been reported just fine. The error itself is sort of an odd wording with "results" in it. Looks like it should read "200 work units" instead. -s |

I had results in the queue so I thought it was from a reporting standpoint. I see those have been reported just fine. As I recall from last fall it used the same phrase as you are seeing, “200 results†or some-such. I think that it is a hold-over from the bad-old-days when people were reporting thousands of results in order to inflate their credit count. So long as you have a full cache of wus to crunch and everything is reporting fine, no worries. Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas. Albert Einstein |

Just noticed this message: Each computer's download limit is 100 work units per day, per core. In your case looks like the computer has 2 cores so the daily limit is 200 for that computer. At midnight Berkeley time the limit is cleared and you will be allowed to download more work until either your cache is full or you reach the daily limit again. Boinc....Boinc....Boinc....Boinc.... |
