Okey Dokey...

Patience is necessary to be a successful BOINCer....

But I got in trouble last week and couldn't upload my WU which prevented me from starting a new one, so I just wanted to be sure...

Thanks. You guys are all super....

Actually, BOINC thrives on neglect. If you ignore it, it will basically do fine.

too recent under is 10 minutes
if you click update it will defer communication for this time ,if you update before it gets to zero it will generate the too recent message though it will update other things rac and report finished units

There is a 10 minute 4 second back off, to prevent users from continually hitting the update button. you have to wait or it will stop you. It's there to lessen the load on the servers.

You're right. A lot of them were the TOO RECENT message. But how many seconds is too recent? 439 was even too recent. I had just reset my prefs to 5 days to pick up extra and did an update. Guess I was not very patient with the RETRY.....

Learn something new every minute here at the BOINC!!

Message 289161 - Posted: 25 Apr 2006, 12:54:04 UTC - in response to Message 289151.  

I am already getting a NO WORK FROM PROJECT message.

I just did several RETRY's....

You guys can't have sucked them all up already ;-) ??

D



just wonder what "no work message" it was
if it was the "last request too recent one"
just that my logs have shown a pretty steady stream of work down to my various clients with no glitches that i can find

I love this magical message board. Everytime I post here, my problem is solved.

Thanks, boss!

From the server status page, as viewable from the main page:

Results ready to send 594,484 4h
Current result creation rate 16.06/sec 2m

so as of 4 hours since last update (1210UTC), they had 594,484 results ready to send, and as of 2 minutes since last update (1210UTC) they were making results at a rate of 16/second. Not sure why they would be out of work, unless, as you suggest, people are "stocking up"

1700-1800 UTC, 3-4 hours or so, expect a backlog for many hours after that
