	2 to 32nd power? (For results) I'm not a scientist, but wouldn't 2 billion results be 2 to the 9th power? 2 + 9 zero's after it. (Typo I think!) ____________

	2 + 9 zero's after it is 2 times 10 to the 9th power. 2 to the 31st power minus 1 is 2147483647 (the largest signed number to be stored in 32 bits), a bit more than 2 billion ;-) Gruß, Gundolf

	We will be sorry to see you go Amen to that. rasc, have you tried posting your issue in the Questions and Answers section? There are often knowledgeable SETI users who could possibly help you resolve your problem. I've gotten good help that's helped me significantly improve my crunching stats. I'm getting tasks daily and whatever problem you're having may be unique to your system. ____________

	Fed up with SETI and lack of available data to crunch -0 always an issue these days ! how you can say that ?, my manager always have like 200 SETI tasks ahead to do. note that they are 99% cuda fermi .... but my GTX-480 always working

I still get work even with a 3 days cache, infact 1 day, but work comes in, gets crunched and is sent back. I not complaining, cause everything, workflow, network traffic(can take some time), works isn't getting worse, then a (few) month(s) back, has become more consistent, BOINC 6.12.34, does have it's advantages (Can take a while to DLoad, but 3 hosts always have SETI@home work, even with BOINC 6.12.34 ;^)). The only difference, nowadays, we are processing more in 1 year, then in the 3 (or more?) years before, due to speed-up in, as well CPUs and the (extended) use of GPUs.... And building up a cache??? What is send, gets computed and is returned. ____________ Knight Who Says Ni N!, OUT numbered.................

	I'm lucky to get a 1-day supply most of the time; what secret proxy do you use to ensure a steady connection? Direct connect is not reliable on this end.

	Hi First go back to 6.10.xx (i use 6.10.60 you could downlodad in the Boinc page) Be shure you intall the old version correctly (for me i need to run the install 2 times on each host) After that use: http://www.freeproxylists.net Look for a proxy close from your place with a high response/transfer ratio. As i see you have several host, i sugest you try diferent proxies one for each host an looks what one is the best and use it. If anyone of the proxies kick you out, return to the list and choose another. Thakes some time to find the best proxy but its works. ____________

	I'm lucky to get a 1-day supply most of the time; what secret proxy do you use to ensure a steady connection? Direct connect is not reliable on this end. i have a 40 Mbit cable connection (i can download up to a 4.0m/sec) a very very good connection. my Boinc version is : 6.12.34 (x86) in my Preferences Calculations ?? ( sorry i m french and it s written in french ) i have : Computer is connected to the Internet about every Leave blank or 0 if always connected. BOINC will try to maintain at least this much work (max 10 days). => 1 day Maintain enough work for an additionnal : => 3 days ---------- i always have tons of tons of work to crunch, but ya, it s mostly cuda_fermi, like at 99% but i remember a time, like maybe 2,3,4,5,6 months ago ?? , i had to check the transfert tab, select all, and spam often '' retry '' until everything has been downloaded :p
