I have a feeling they are doing stress tests to see what the databases can handle when adding a new telescope to the mix. |

Here's an interesting WU. 3 different applications, 3 different results. 02ja11aa.12226.328091.8.12.206 Grant Darwin NT |

Here's an interesting WU. It will be interesting to see if any of those three end up being invalid. Linux laptop: record uptime: 1511d 20h 19m (ended due to the power brick giving-up) |

Here's an interesting WU. Looking at the results tables in each stderr.txt, I would guess the _0, on the cuda42 app, will be invalid, due to the large number of signals found that the others did not. If either of the other two results is validated, the _0 will not pass the 50% match test for "weakly similar" validation, Donald Infernal Optimist / Submariner, retired |

Here's an interesting WU. And the verdict is: _0 is invalid, 1,2,3 are valid. Linux laptop: record uptime: 1511d 20h 19m (ended due to the power brick giving-up) |

And here's a real waste of time and electricity. http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=1954343880 The saddest part is it appears to be re-sending again! Shouldn't there be a check in the programming to segregate WUs that have 3 consecutive invalidations much less 7? Again, such a waste. "Sour Grapes make a bitter Whine." <(0)> |

And here's a real waste of time and electricity. That wu is from time when splitter code was altered, and got wrong Yes, it's waste of our time and electricity. But S@H staff do have more important jobs to do than write new program (and waste their time) to find out those bad wu's. We just have to wait until wu reaches 10 resends, after that it is marked as invalid. |

And here's a real waste of time and electricity. Actually, there is a check. It's set at 10. max # of error/total/success tasks 5, 10, 5 These days, that may be a bit too liberal. I've been taking a quick scan through and aborting anything 4 and higher. By now, I think most are cycled through. Here's hoping... Had an even weirder one the other day. Not sure if it was a a result of the splitter error, or something else, but it was estimated at a quarter million hours to complete!! Sheesh. Caught it six plus hours into work, with less than 1/1000th of a percent complete. Nuked that sucker in a hurry, for sure ... |

Did someone forget to bring the Beta Scheduler online after today's outrage?... all the other functions seem to be online, from just B4 I wrote this... . Hello, from Albany, CA!... |

The thing we tried last week (science database updates in advance of Green Bank data splitting) that didn't quite work? Well, we're doing it again this week, this time with hopefully more success. The beta project and other science database related stuff is offline until this is finished. We may likely run out of workunits, but we shall see... - Matt -- BOINC/SETI@home network/web/science/development person -- "Any idiot can have a good idea.

All splitters of-line so only the odd resend coming out. And about an hour or two ago reporting stalled, and the pile of "ready to reports" is growing.... All is not happy in SETIServerLand Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe? |

All splitters of-line so only the odd resend coming out. There's still 95k results received in the last hour. Time for a cup of tea. A person who won't read has no advantage over one who can't read. (Mark Twain) |

Well, it's a blue day. Two of my three machines have work units. One ran out sometime last night. :-( Guess it's time to visit the Einstein site and see if they have any WUs available. |

Well, only bright side is that those bad wu's are flushed out much faster, just aborted 10 of those and 4 got out of system. Of course 6 of them were resent to new host, but at least they are not waiting about 6 hours (RTS 1M cache) to be resend. EDIT: And MB splitters are online. |

One of my machines just got 36 New tasks. They appear normal, no short run time estimates like the bad batch from last time. Hopefully all will be well. |
