Well AP splitting is almost finished so get ready for a steady flow of MB work soon.

Cheers.

Wow. Over 10 hours later and no one is wailing over the APs running out.

Well if we could burn thought the MB faster then more AP would get loaded quicker, yes?

As I see it they load way too much data at once, but the real culprit is really the credit flaw.

They probably loaded more data in one go than usual this week, because so many of the staff were out of state in Arizona for the "Search for Life Beyond the Solar System" conference.

Let's see what happens next week before we point the finger.

One thing I must say in regards to data throughput they must have quite a lot stored close to the servers because I have not seen any data travelling over the out connection at speeds in a triple numbers for a number of weeks now.

I just set these three hosts to NNT, so a couple more days to clear out the CPU/AP tasks and they'll be turned off for the summer.

I had to open a window the other day. One GPU was running at 85C but I hit an all time high RAC with the AP feast. There is no way I can afford to run that cruncher without a "polar vortex" banging on the door.

I never let summer stop me.

Cheers.

I never let summer stop me.

I'm not going to stop but have to slow way down; it costs me over 200USD a month to crunch. I can justify it as it heats the computer lab (north facing porch) but in the summer the rates go up along with the temperature. It would cost 500USD a month to cool the lab to 50F and crunch.

Temperature inside here is generally in the mid to high 30°'s (celcius). During the dry season it drops to the low 30°'s, high 20°'s. After market CPU cooler & all fans running pretty much flat out are enough to keep things running.
Power bill is around $600-$1,000 per quarter. Due to power increases, cuts, blackouts, more increases I've still no idea what a usual quarterly cost would be, probably around $650, but that's just a wild guess.

Heerree's Shorty!

Seems as though the Shorties are getting the best of the splitters.
Just ~400 more MB channels before we get any APs. Oh joy.
:-)

why the huge jump in the cricket graph with no AP being sent out??

The answer is in the post just before yours. Looks like a shorty storm. Hope you have your wellies on.

It's just spiked up to 683.09 Mbits/sec

Whatever it is, it's more than shorties - and it isn't AP either. Other speculations would be making old data available to other researchers at other universities, or a local copy of Eric's speech video going viral.....

The jump from 100Mb to 300Mb could have been from shorties, but after looking at the haveland stats for the turn around rate it appears perhaps not.

Well...last time was a false alarm. However, this time it appears something is broke...or about to break.

Yep, can't connect with the scheduling server here.

Cheers.

The Server status page is stuck mode also

Slow, but still hanging in there, it would seem.

Looks like the Server status page is unstuck now. Yaaaay

I connected and reported my completions, but got no tasks. Then two timeouts, then a connect that got some tasks. Current request is hanging and headed for a timeout.

Yes it is a bit sporadic right now.
