BOINC got a nice message: me too! I wonder if my errored work contributed to this? I reported 11 "computation errors". They didn't all happen consecutively, one after the other, but the new "credit" code doesn't know that, since they weren't reported until just now. Martin |

I don't think so, as far as we know, errored work only screws up the broken quota system. This would appear to possibly be another roadblock thrown at us.

I've been graced with 9 603's that I've not had for a while - for yonks it's been all Cuda on my little 8800 GTS, and a lot of those flunked out with errors. Now I've got another 12 603's trying to drop in. I'm happy :) |

Unless it is just a bad Boinc message...time will tell.BOINC got a nice message: Sadly this looks like an enforced limit (hopefully only temporarily in place to try and limit the spike caused by everyone trying to fill up at once after the downtime). Once I cleared my uploads I was able to download 20 tasks (all CUDA so far), every time I complete a task I can download a new one. The new limit looks to be 20 tasks per PC. I wonder if this limit is calculated depending on the number of CPU cores and GPUs a PC has or if its the same for everyone regardless of processing power. Edited for clarity :) |

Well.... Both my top rigs are looking for work, and both are getting the in progress limit message. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

Ooh, what a surprise....no jobs available. D'oh! Don't take life too seriously, as you'll never come out of it alive! |

Now I've got another 12 603's trying to drop in. I'm happy :) Have you tried running the re-branding tool to keep both CPU & GPU happy? version 1.9 Works for me! |

I'll have a look - though I'll be brave and wait 12 hours or so until things settle down a bit (It is, after all, the weekend :) ) |

I'm impressed the uploads went so smoothly. On my work PCs I had about 100+ to upload and they are all done. My idle box got 20 WUs. Took quite a while to download even one of them, but I finally have work for this PC. |

If you read it literally, "Message from server: This computer", means the Server has reached a limit on how many tasks it can run... Wishful thinking, right....sigh... Martin |

If you read it literally, "Message from server: This computer", means the Server has reached a limit on how many tasks it can run... Right. See http://boinc.berkeley.edu/trac/wiki/ProjectOptions#Joblimits for the settings the project has available. It's not obvious just what they've set, but I judge by the reports it's likely a temporary limit to avoid server crashes. [Crossing fingers] Joe |

Joe, See my post 5pm and someone flipped the switch. Work has started flowing again and mine seems to be coming in hot and heavy! PROUD MEMBER OF Team Starfire World BOINC |

If you read it literally, "Message from server: This computer", means the Server has reached a limit on how many tasks it can run... And so cause I use the 2.3 dlls, And cause I generated 6 -12 errors out of thousands of good results over the last 7 days, I'm being denied any and all downloads? So I'm a faulty host, This is stupid... The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |

Nice thought, but no dice. Just for grins, I did a rollback to 6.6.38 on my rig which has no GPU work. Whatever mechanism is in place for determining work in progress was not affected. Still got the in progress limit. "Freedom is just Chaos, with better lighting." Alan Dean Foster |

If you read it literally, "Message from server: This computer", means the Server has reached a limit on how many tasks it can run... I'm running 6.6.36. @Joe...Thanks. Martin ps I think the mental anguish of having hundreds of thousands of results ready to send (per stats page), and not being able to get any of them, or only getting one or two at a time (none downloaded here, yet) is as much of an issue as anything else going on here lately... |
