I just got a bunch of work, and all of mine are as normal as they should be. Roughly 4 hours per unit, but running the optimized apps, so it'll be a little lower. But no weird times here. Running BOINC version 6.10.18, don't know if that has anything to do with it. Never got any weird messages either about the app_info.xml. Maybe I'm special??? LMAO!

I think It's cause You're running 6.10.18 and not something later, I'm running 6.10.56.

on 6.10.56 with still less work than requested, my machines are not requesting more. At least the computation times are normalizing.. again.

no messages about limits.. no strange messages. Just not asking.

Mine started getting work @ Midnight after the last outage, Now I have 411 WU's for the moment, BV 1.42 says I have about 58.50 days worth of work and BT 0.60 says I have 105.75 days, Neither is believable of course. A little more than half(or about 227) are for the 2 gpus on the 295 and the rest(or about 184) are for the QX6700 B1 cpu...

I only have less then 10% of what i should have in my queue, I'm way under fed. It looks like it just isn't worth it any longer!


It's definitely not only you who can't fill cache because these invalid time estimations. Try to cool down one more time ;) and wait some time, this should be healed with time as servers should get impression of what true speed of your host is (their prev knowledge of this speed was effectively wiped with last changes).
So just try to make as much units as you can in this situation and observe how estimation times gradualy decrease back to normal ones....
And look this thread for additional referencies:
