Given the new limits I backed myself down to 0.25 day + 0.25 additional. Looks like it will probably settle the Linux boxes at about 150/2150 (CPU/GPU) and 130/1500 and 75/250 for the Win box. Really needed to back that off, as with 2000 and 3000+ respectively on the linux at 0.50 day + 0.50 additional, boinctasks was starting to see timeouts dealing with the sheer number of tasks. |

I suddenly got 900 wu i progress. No metioning of it here. Only me? No ghosts as far as I can tell. |

This was discussed in panic mode thread. Looks like 200 work units for your chip and 400 work units for each GPU you have. |

A definitive statement has been posted on GitHub: Eric Korpela wrote: I was the one who increased the limits. I based it on database I/O ratesTasks 'out in the field' (not sure if that exactly matches 'in process') is still rising slowly, and has reached 6.93 million: it will be interesting to see how that changes as the new working week starts around the world. |

'Results in the field' has now passed 7 million. |

Apologies for all the system e-mails you may have received from post moves into this thread... For anyone running a "spoofed" client, you will of course now get 300x the number of "spoofed" GPUs which may be an overload so may want to reduce the "spoof" number appropriately, ie to one-third what it currently is. The hard limit of 10K platform tasks remains, so I was seeing just under 10,200 tasks (10K GPU + 200 CPU) on my largest host (which incidentally isn't overdoing it; this is about a day's worth.) All of the others I had to reduce appropriately as noted. |

I UL a new spoofed build with a 30000 WU Buffer. Remember use such big cachê only If you realy have a Very fast system. And If you use think about use te mutex to make the lag small as posible. |

Looks like the GPU limit has been lowered again.

Think you are correct. I am not getting a 1:1 replacement for work turned in. Any tasks I get are just replacing cpu tasks turned in. The gpu task caches are falling. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |

Apologies for all the system e-mails you may have received from post moves into this thread... +1 No apology needed. You were doing what a moderator does. Bringing order out of a chaotic new topic. THANK YOU! Tom A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association). |

Yup, looks like they lowered it to 300 per GPU |

More confirmation via GitHub: Eric Korpela wrote: I've dropped the GPU limit to 300 to keep us below 7M. We'll run it there |

More confirmation via GitHub: What kind of "7M" does he mean? |

7M = 7 million = 7,000,000. Results out in the field. Seti@Home classic workunits: 29,492 CPU time: 134,419 hours |

What he means is the "results out in the field" and 7M means 7 million. ;-)More confirmation via GitHub: Cheers. |

I wonder if Eric has increased the limits again because we are currently running at 7.27 million.No changes, it's still 200 for CPU and 300 for GPU's. Cheers. |

The infrequent crunchers or ones that only contact the project every ten days are getting filled up at the new cache levels. Seti@Home classic workunits:20,676 CPU time:74,226 hours A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association) |
