Odd, just downloaded more files to process and suddenly it's doing three files at once again. Frustrating but at least there's progress, at least enough to move on to other priorities. Thanks for taking the time to try and help!

I'm running into something similar. For the past 2 months, I know I'm slow to react on this one, my computer has gone from processing four files at once to slowly doing one. I was processing over 2,500 a day to now only 400. I've checked and rechecked everything and everything looks the same in my settings. Any idea's?

I think part of the issue may be that some of the files being processed are so large that it takes several days to complete. While it is running nothing more will download. When it is done it may happen during the three day down time and so can not upload and then download more files. So saying get a 10 day supply does not work in this less than perfect world. This is what has happened to me several times at least and maybe to others. It might be helpful if the software could see that X percent of the job is done and download according to work time remaining rather than the total processing time on our computers.

Yikes! Well, I'll donate the $25 bucks everyone has been talking about. That may at least buy some water for the camel while we wait.

A month ago I started up again after a 5 year absence and am having a problem with downloading work. It was doing fine before the server went down but now, even after my computer being on for 12 hours, there are no new projects. This is what is says:

Requesting 17280 seconds of new work
Scheduler RPC succeeded [server version 509]
Deferring communications for 11 sec
Reason: requested by project
Deffering communication for 28 min 22 sec
Reason: no work from project

Can anybody help?
