	Limits are still 50 per logical CPU Core and 400 per GPU as far as I know. Your limit should be 1000 overall. If it's only asking for GPU work, and you are already at 800 for them, it will give you that message even if the CPU is under the limit. ____________

	Looks like things are getting a little dicey. Getting lots of servers may be down, etc. Graphs are taking dips. ____________ Dave

	Yeah, not a good way to start the new year. Traffic has dropped off- All recent requests for work have resulted in "Project has no tasks available" messages. ____________ Grant Darwin NT.

	Looks like the splitters have all run out of AP workunits. As a result, downloads are taking less bandwidth hence the dip in the cricket graph. Everything else OK though, plenty of MB WUs available and uploads and reporting still going through OK ____________

Nope- there was a problem for a few hours there where work wasn't being allocated when requested, but it appears to have sorted itself out for now. ____________ Grant Darwin NT.

I think that the problem was more with part of the connection going dickie again than the servers as as soon as I selected another proxy things cleared up real quickly. Cheers. ____________

I think that the problem was more with part of the connection going dickie again than the servers as as soon as I selected another proxy things cleared up real quickly. Co-incidence. If you look at the graphs you can see that both uploads & downloads went goofy. Also the connection you use has no effect on whether work is allocated or not. I had no problems with Scheduler requests or uploads, but i was unable to download anything because nothing was allocacted when requested- just "Project has no tasks available" messages. Those are system related mesages, not network. ____________ Grant Darwin NT.

I know that it went goofy but as I said before, as soon I changed back to using proxies the problems stopped for me even though the graphs stayed goofy for a few hours after that but during that time I was uploading, reporting and downloading as usual using proxies (I also use a different proxy for each rig).

Cheers. Every morning around 8 or 9, I see 3 hosts, all with a large DLoad qeue and some 8 hours, before a retry. But 1 push almost everytime is enough to download the qeue, at 10-35Kbit and some additional work. Almost Standard Procedure for 3 hosts, 2 CUDA/OpenCL* (GTX470&480) and 1 (CAL)ATI OpenCL, 2x5870GPUs;CPU is an I7-2600(stock;DDR3-1333) Also use a small cache, why big, you'll have a hardtime filling it, depending on which version of BOINC, 6.10.60 is more "consistent in getting work" and 6.12.34, if you let it run, does supply you enough work, although no cache is build. First In---> First Out,(FIFO) . The use of a Proxy, shouldn't be necessary, but can depend on a lot of reasons, why you have to use them. I still have a 'FIXED' IP adress and a 'SmartModemRouter', it operates with an embedded version of NUX/NIX. (As does my Digital TV STB, only uses different Coding/DECoding algoritmes)! Two problems, Banwidth and Telescope time, very expensive, so SETI@home "piggi-backs" and so changes position. Anotherthing, when looking at the date of the work Result 2239662802, is quite Up to Date. (A 'crunching farm' near Arecibo or a WLAN Transmitter to the Berkeley Lab!?). Here, it's already 3 1/2 hours 2012, wishing you the best of health, bright future, opportunities, luck........ ____________ Knight Who Says Ni N!, OUT numbered.................

	I've got no problems contacting the Scheduler, it just doesn't want to give me any work. "Project has no tasks available" is the usual response. ____________ Grant Darwin NT.

	Now that was a fast and furious outage. :-) Edit: Now all we need is for the scheduling server, and the scheduler process to come online. Well, and more APs being split of course...
