it is a holiday tomorrow, so cut us some slack, if it's later than tomorrow morning :) Since I am retired every day is a holiday. |

So we're back from maintenance, but unless I'm mistaken the splitters have not yet been turned up?? Thanks ... |

it is a holiday tomorrow, so cut us some slack, if it's later than tomorrow morning :) In the US, Veteran's day is a federal holiday and always has been. http://www.archives.gov/news/federal-holidays.html or https://www.opm.gov/policy-data-oversight/snow-dismissal-procedures/federal-holidays/ |

it is a holiday tomorrow, so cut us some slack, if it's later than tomorrow morning :) Right, which means only government employees get it off. The rest of us, including most veterans, get nada. All holidays, and all veterans, are not created equal. |

Time to accept APs only even though there are no RTS APs. Most of the MBs I am receiving at the moment are the problem resends from Nov 4. |

As Matt said we would run out of work and we did. With advance notice this is not a cause for panic. |

Therefore, I conclude, once again, that I am clear of these WUs... They have run their course on my machines... Unfortunately your conclusion is wrong. Those WUs are still around, and it will take a couple of months for all of them to clear out of the system. However the initial rush of them has cleared, and most people will only get one or 2 over the next few days (I've cleared out 4 so far today), then maybe one or 2 a week towards the end of the month, then maybe one or 2 for all of Dec. By January there will still be the odd one floating around, and you'd have to be very unlucky to end up with one. Grant Darwin NT |

Therefore, I conclude, once again, that I am clear of these WUs... They have run their course on my machines... Agreed. Each time one is aborted (I just threw back another 75 a few minutes ago) or finished with a fail, it will resend if it has not maxed out. Everything I aborted came to me after today's outage. Between the outage and whenever the splitters come back on line, everything is resends, and a high proportion of those will be the bad ones ... [edit] After posting this, I went back and checked. Got 6 more resends on 2 machines. 5 of 6 were baddies ... [/edit] |

Oh, YES IT IS. My error in syntax, Veterans Day is not a NATIONAL Holiday, although it should be. Banks, Post Offices, Wall Street, City, County, State AND Federal Offices should be closed to honor those who make those activities possible. "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

Same here. All the WUs I got after the outage are re-sends. I've only dumped stuff down to _4, but its still over 25 WUs aborted. A _2 or _3 is not that unusual, so I've kept them, knowing that they could all be bad! The only snag is, I'm now only allowed 5 WUs per day, now! Nothing quite like 'punishing' the innocent. Don't take life too seriously, as you'll never come out of it alive! |

Oh, YES IT IS. I do not know where you are living in the US, but the US Post Offices are closed today and all Federal Reserve Banks are also. And it is a National Holiday. Whether a individual business observes it or not depends on their corporate philosophy, as with Christmas and Thanksgiving (also National Holidays). Side note: as a Veteran I will having a free lunch at Applebee's today. SETI@home classic workunits 4,019 SETI@home classic CPU time 34,348 hours |

someone should give the splitters a kick - I see 0 for "results ready to send" but the "result creation rate" is only 1.8 per second... which won't satisfy current requests, let alone build up a queue... . Hello, from Albany, CA!... |

While you were there, did you happen to notice that all the splitters were disabled? As already quoted in this thread, Splits (Nov 10 2015) BUT ALSO we needed to update some fields in the current science database schema to also make the database itself telescope agnostic. Just a few "alter table" commands to lengthen the tape name fields beyond 20 characters. We thought these alters would take a few hours (and completed before the end of today's Tuesday outage). Now it looks like it might take a day. We can't split/assimilate any new work until the alters are finished. Oh well. We're going to run out of work tonight, but should have fresh work sometime tomorrow morning. It is a holiday tomorrow, so cut us some slack, if it's later than tomorrow morning :). |

Therefore, I conclude, once again, that I am clear of these WUs... They have run their course on my machines... Let's see good side, now when splitters are off-line, those Bad WU's are gone much faster. Those are not waiting 600.000 WU RTS -cache before sent again. |

Let's see good side, now when splitters are off-line, those Bad WU's are gone much faster. Those are not waiting 600.000 WU RTS -cache before sent again. That's for sure. My boxes only managed to download 11 tasks overnight, all resends, and 9 of them were malignant. After I aborted and reported them this morning, it only took 4 seconds or less to resend each of them to the next victim. |

those Bad WU's are gone much faster. Not when they keep coming back again and again and again......ad infinitum. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/results.php?userid=9686778&offset=0&show_names=0&state=5&appid= Is there no way to purge these useless efforts? "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

those Bad WU's are gone much faster. Nope, they are send 10 times. Then they are marked "Too many total results" and won't be sent again. Now when RTS -cache is zero, they are sent immediately to next host. But when RTS is over 600.000, those units are waiting, maybe 5 hours to be send again. |

And splitters are online again. |
