Daren't go to pub. The only way i can get uploads and reports through is to sit here constantly hitting the retry button. Just to add insult to injury, I jave got a whole load of 12s megashorties that take 12s to abort and then 12 minutes to upload and another 12 minutes to report. Have to go now still got WU to report again and again and again....

Well the cricket graph has almost hit rock bottom, so the sensible decision is go down the pub and check when we get back.

EDIT guess what while I was typing this the report went through. Now I have 14 minutes free till the next shortie finishes. How many pints can I drink in 14 minutes?

Well it was fun while it lasted.

Pints in 14 minutes? That depends how many you get lined up first, some pubs I know you'd be lucky to get one in never mind drunk, others you could line a dozen or more up and still have time to order another dozen.
Don't bother punishing the re-try button, just retire to the pub, someone has flattened the crickets :-(

Got results gone past expiry now. I'd just like to be able to upload and report them. I have plenty of work on other projects.

Someone must have kicked the routers at HE very hard - yiiihhha
Just got 40 WUs and downloaded them in under 2 minutes, in spite of cricket nearly maxed out - and pinging the servers is as fast as never before (from my point of the world) :-) .

Only short time of happiness, ping on .13 and .16 lost in timeouts :-( - .18 and 20 are as fast as before :-) -

I've been getting a good amount of cpu but I don't think either of my computers have received any gpu since the last outtage. Is there not enough CUDA to go around or something else is wrong ?

Boinc will fill it's fastest device first, be it CPU or GPU, then once that cache is full it will fill the other, (it seems to be operating the other way round at the moment through)
You can try reducing your Cache setting until Boinc no longer asks for CPU work, once the HE link behaves itself you should get some GPU work,

cricket graph seems to be coming back to life. Whoever Jeff kicked, bribed or sweet talked to sort out the connection issues seems to have done the trick

Something(s) definately stuffed.
Outbound network traffic is barely peaking at 60Mb/s, for a while there it wasn't even peaking at 30Mb/s. This is with both of my machines not having reached the present limits. One of them actually ran out of work because the upload server was down at one stage, and the backoffs from that resulted in it backing off for over 4 hours. At the moment it's backed off for over 6 hours due to the problem with the Scheduler.
Most requests to the Scheduler result in "project has no tasks available", which is odd considering the very low level of network traffic. When it does connect, it gets 2-3 tasks (DCF of 1.2).
However at the present moment all attempts to contect the Scheduler result in failure.

2/10/2011 8:57:30 SETI@home Reporting 6 completed tasks, requesting new tasks for CPU and GPU

and repeat time & time again.

The same here yet all tracerts and pings get through to all 4 IP's.

Claggy,

I am not on HE, and I have not received any GPU work since the last outage. Are they not splitting any?

I am only set up to request GPU's...

I wonder if that means that there's a lot of VLAR's around, (VLAR's aren't sent to Nvidia GPU's)

So.. I keep hearing about this limit of 50/cpu... my single core machine has 99 in progress and the messages tab says nothing about a limit. Hm. Now it's 100, still no message. Either it's a glitch, or it's because a 10-day cache on this machine is somewhere between 90-110 MBs on average, at least with the weird estimates and most of them being shorties.
