Still no AP's. Withdrawal symptoms setting in. Only cure for now, is to work longer days.

LOL

Most of my machines are living off of resends. Which at the current cache & rate of resends they will take another week to run out.

I notice the "Send message" button under user names (or their avatar if they have one); unfortunately it's rather large & overlaps those items directly above & below it making things look a bit messy.

I've observed some changes in the stylesheet over the past few hours - possibly due to that.

Apologies if this sounds like a question with a obvious answer. When the file deleteters are at work do they continually delete or do they delete X number of results every X number of minutes.

If they're working, they'd delete things as they occured- effectively continually deleting.

Thanks Grant. Maybe they will have a chance to catch up during the outage tomorrow. In total there are over 3 million results ready for deleting

No where that I can see, all the deleter backlogs are presently at 0. Nothing waiting to be deleted.

They keep about 2 days worth in the db so that users can see their results for awhile before they are deleted.

Message 1639714 - Posted: 10 Feb 2015, 11:21:06 UTC

Let me try to better-explain this.

Two results are reported. Validator compares them and picks a canonical result (typically the first one reported, not necessarily the _0 task).

Once validated, the WU moves on to assimilation. Once assimilation happens (the data in the results are entered into the science database), the WU file itself, and the result files that got returned are no longer needed, so they move on to the file deleter.

File deleter runs pretty much once it is told it has something that needs deletion, much like validation runs once there are two results to compare.

"results/WUs waiting for purge" is what we see on our tasks pages until they get deleted. That has a 24-hour delay starting from when that data was assimilated. Once DB purge happens, us end-users can't see anything about those WUs/tasks anymore (the staff can, if they do the right queries in the right places and so forth, but there's never any need to, so they don't).


As far as I know, the data we see on the task pages here on the website comes from the BOINC database. Basically, that's just a DB that keeps track of users, hosts, WUs and tasks that are in-play, and it also does keep track of who participated (hostID) on what WUs, so that eventually when the contents of the science DBs are analyzed, if something interesting is found, they know who to contact to give credit to for crunching the WU that found the result.

Regarding the huge backlog of purging for MB.. I don't know what the issue is on that one, but generally when there's a large backlog like that, it is gone after the outage (sometimes, tasks that were assimilated less than 24 hours ago are purged during the maintenance, other times, only the ones older than 24 hours when the purge was manually run). We'll see what happens in about.. 10-12 hours from now.

I was seeing this yesterday & then again this morning. The reply & quote buttons were also out of place for me. Maybe they are done poking around with things & they will remain constant now.

No such luck, my send message button is now jacked up(overlapping)....

Hopefully today's "down" will cure some major ills.

And as soon as I refresh the problem goes away........Hmmmmmmmmmm

I was noticing the large Send Message button earlier. After posting in News and then walking away from the computer for a bit, I came back and hit refresh to see if there were any new posts since mine. I have not seen the large button since then, BUT I was not specifically observing for it.

As for your electrical consumption, don't be completely surprised if they report it to the cops on suspicion that you're growing marijuana.
