Hopefully we'll get a few more files loaded before the weekend. Has anyone heard on news on why the Replicas has been down for several weeks now? Definitely. We're going to need more files if we are to make it through the weekend. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) ID: 1948861 ·

Since it appears all your other systems are OK, and it only occurred on that one system, then the problem is with that particular system. I'd check the date & time on that system- if it was out by several weeks or more, then was set to the correct date, then the WUs would have been past their due back date as far as that system was concerned. EDIT- one of your systems does have 7 WUs that did actually time out, not returned by deadline. Grant Darwin NT ID: 1948891 ·

It will be interesting to see whether the results per hour increase for the wow event ID: 1948931 ·

It's got to be higher because there currently are a lot of "noisy" work units.

It's got to be higher because there currently are a lot of "noisy" work units. I wondered Keith if there was "noisy" work around thanks for the heads up. I ran 10 work units that ran with the stock app for around 6 minutes each normally tasks run for about 7 minutes on my 970. I don't think any of these bombed out because of noise ID: 1948935 ·

Oh good, I was afraid it was just my rigs. I have been seeing a significant number of Blc13 and Blc04 tasks that are taking 50% longer than normal. I thought I had a problem ...

Just had a look through my results list, and there are a few noisy WUs there- 1min 30s to 2min and then exiting due to -9 result_overflow, 30 spikes. Grant Darwin NT ID: 1948948 ·

Judging by the deadlines the system has assigned them, the blc02 and blc04 tasks with AR of 0.025 and above are expected to run slowly. ID: 1948959 ·

Seeing some 3:45 BLC13 tasks. That is a long task on the special app for 1070. If I had a task run at that speed on my 970 I would consider it to be fast. Unfortunately Keith I cannot run the app you are talking about as I run windows 10. I am aware there are many speed advantages to Linux but I am not making the switch. Either the "noisy" work has passed all the server just does not want to give it to me. I see currently the return rate is over 120,000 ID: 1948965 ·
