http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/hosts_user.php?userid=7800916 looks very suspicious out to me, at least host http://setiweb.ssl.berkeley.edu/show_host_detail.php?hostid=392869. Downloaded 1604 WUs and the 1604th deadline was 1st of December! Happy crunching |

But that's not the really interesting part... with all those WU's, and the oldest sent date of 29 Nov 2004 (received date being 1 Dec 2004), I find it interesting that host 392869 was "Created 8 Dec 2004 12:48:31 UTC". The computer received and returned results well over a week before it was created. Now that's FAST, I gotta get several of those computers, number #1, here I come! Seems we may have a violation of the maximum download amounts here, too, unless host 392869 has been reset many, many times, on several days. Boinc@hellas has nine-hundred (900) WU's downloaded (18 times the 50 WU per day maximum) at various times on 2 Dec 2004 (due various times on 16 Dec 2004). He also seems to have something like four-hundred-thirteen (413) WU's downloaded at various times on 3 Dec 2004 (due various times on 17 Dec 2004), eighty-eight (88) WU's downloaded at various times on 6 Dec 2004 (due at various times on 20 Dec 2004), one-hundred and four (124) WU's downloaded at various times on 7 Dec 2004 (due various times on 21 Dec 2004), for that same host, host 392869. No wonder the rest of us can't get credits for the work we have done. I suspect the best part (most?, all?) of some 1525 WU's will not be returned on time, therefore delaying results to other users by yet another two weeks. I doubt any single-CPU computer, especially not a GenuineIntel 731MHz Pentium, will do 900 Results a day. Cheers, Stephen <P>"I want to go dancing on the moon, I want to frolic in zero gravity!....", and now, I might be able to go someday!

> huh....the avatar of you , tha's doggy right ! > The weasel (Mustela vulgaris) is a carnivorous mammal of the family Mustelidae. It feeds mainly on voles, rats and mice. The colour is a deep brown above and white below, and the body is snake-like allowing the animal to worm its way through dense undergrowth and into the holes of its prey. Timon is a Cartoon Character from the Lion King.... I change my Avatar bout once a week just for fun and suit my many moods... Timmy |

Are you guys saying Timon is a Meerkat, and Timmy is a weasel?

Hi guys. I'm one of the pc owners of boinc@hellas. the pc you're reffering to are 4 identical systems, merged into one. (I wondered too why the hell a 730 MHz Celeron had more average than my systems...) So i guess that there will be no delay to the results (no more than it should be, anywhay). and sorry for any misunderstandigs and inconviniencies. Overseer (Systems:Powerhouse,Phoenix) |
