And yes, after it WU were downloaded faster than ever. But now speed of download WU is low again. Is there another slow switch? ;-( ID: 1108691 ·

The fastest of your "computing elements" (NVIDIA GeForce GT 240M) need minimum of 30 minutes to finish one task.   - ALF - "Find out what you don't do well ..... then don't do it!" :)   ID: 1108729 ·

Really? What about Astropulse' WU of 8 MB? I'm really sad to look to process of its downloading. High speed seems to me more comfortable, even though low speed is enough... ID: 1108799 ·

If I (occasionally) look at the task downloads I see speed of 5-50 KB/s (on 12 Mbit/s DSL) What speed do you see?   - ALF - "Find out what you don't do well ..... then don't do it!" :)   ID: 1109104 ·

If I (occasionally) look at the task downloads I see speed of 5-50 KB/s (on 12 Mbit/s DSL) What speed do you see? It depend. On 10 Mbps DSL from 0 to 20 KB/s. Often, when speed is low to zero, it stopped at all and "will be started after 5:00:00". I would like to say that after Matt have said about replaced switch, the speed was increased about 50-100 KB/s, but now decreased again. ID: 1109156 ·
