Hi, Looks like nothing for seti has downloaded since the 8th of June. Climate is chugging along & Rosetta is up & downloading every day. Seti's flatlined on the statistics graph. Suggestions? Thanks |

Hi, Looking at your completed WUs, you last downloaded work on the 16th and completed that WU on the 17th. Here What's your ratio between your projects? kev kev X2 4400+,4200+ @2.75GHz, XP1800+ @1.65GHz, P4 @1.6GHz |

Hi, Use BOINC View to see what your Long term Debts are for the various projects. BOINC WIKI |

Hi, Hi, I have Climate at 50% seti at 25% & Rosetta at 25% & a dual processor to allow climate to run 24/7 on one core while rosetta & seti alternate on the other core. Looked for "Boinc view" and didn't see that nor do I know what "Long term debts" refers to. I've left the internet connected since early this afternoon (mid evening now) and new rosettas have downloaded but nothing seti. |

Hi, Long term debt controlls which project is downloaded from if more work is needed. If the long term debt is too negative (negative means that the project has need more CPU time that it is alloted) then the project will be denied work fetches until such a time as the other projects have used the time that the very negative LTD project has borrowed from them. The trigger point is -scheduling time (-switch projects every X minutes). If the project has an LTD lower than this it is a guarantee that it has borrowed extra CPU time. If a host is attaching to the internet after being disconnected for a while, projects are asked for work in LTD order - highest LTD first. (Yes, LTD and STD are backwards - think of them as a balance instead). You can get BOINC View here. It has a couple of columns to display long term and short term debts - note that you have to turn these columns on by right clicking on the columns bar in the projects tab. BOINC WIKI |

Hi, I downloaded boincview but am not finding it intuitive and it's not something I'm likely to want to spend my limited free time exploring. Think I'll pass on using it and will let boinc run as it will. Hopefully boinc will start downloading seti again. I do thank you for your suggestions. |

If all you want to do is see your LTD and STD just get BoincDV. It's a small program that allows the viewing and resetting if wanted, of debt numbers. Make sure to look at the included readme file for instructions. Boinc V7.2.42 Win7 i5 3.33G 4GB, GTX470 |

Thanks, I ran this and got the following: PRJ: ROSETTA@HO STD: -13209.572917 LTD: -81314.091256 RSRC: 100 ------------------------------- PRJ: CLIMATEPRE STD: 13209.572917 LTD: 513998.449525 RSRC: 200 ------------------------------- PRJ: SETI@HOME STD: 0.000000 LTD: -432684.358269 RSRC: 100 ------------------------------- Looks like the 50% climate, 25% seti & 25% rosetta are balanced. I still haven't seen anything from seti. I've been running seti for 6 years now & like to know it's running in the background. Guess there's nothing for me to do but ignore it & assume BOINC'll download new units & go back to work at some future time. Thanks again for the time. |

If all you want to do is see your LTD and STD just get BoincDV. It's a small program that allows the viewing and resetting if wanted, of debt numbers. I am going to assume that at the moment you are running a CPDN result. S@H and Rosetta have borrowed some time from CPDN and as a result, CPDN is being allowed to get some CPU time. With the standard settings, any LTD that is lower than -3600 is not allowed to download more work. In your case, both Rosetta and S@H have LTDs that are lower than this. They will download work again, but it is going to be awhile - Rosetta owes about a day of CPU time, and S@H owes about 10 days of CPU time. You can change the proportions of CPU time that each projects gets by changing the resource share for each project. BOINC WIKI |
