Thank you littlegreenmanfrommars for posting this a while ago: "Best advice in such a situation is to turn off network activity for a while. (BOINC tool menu > select Network activity suspended)." - i have wanted to know what to do in this situation since i joined. Competition is so intense; am happy to just slow down a little for the server's sake. keep telescopic listening devices aimed at the Zenith of the Horizon |

The way it actually works is one bad task = -1 quota, one good task = 2x current quota. I think it should be more along the lines of +2 and not 2x. That would greatly help the "damage control" efforts that the quota tries to do anyway. Sounds good to me, block errant clients quickly, then restore quota as they once more prove themselves stable. ![]() |

... a temporary stop to AP downloads, until the cause of the anomaly can be investigated and corrected. Once the runaway download train is brought under control, uploads will look after themselves. As far as I can tell, they have Coral Cache turned on for the AP v5 as this link still works. The problem is a lot of the antivirus apps mark the redirect as suspect and do not allow the download to happen. Of course then then we get the task errors because there is no app to process the work. ![]() |
