Uhh, don't know where you read that the project was back to normal. It is not. Won't be until after tomorrow's outage/backup/recovery. (Fingers crossed.)Maybe, hopefully, if we're very, very lucky. It would still be nice if they sorted out what caused everything to slow down in the first place, was it the re-enabling of Resend lost tasks, or something else? Because while Anonymous Platform systems can't get work, systems running stock were still getting the odd Scheduler error or "Project has no tasks available", even with the extremely reduced server load, which was why I decided to just go back to Anonymous Platform and wait for a fix (along with the BOINC Manager deciding CUDA42 was best- 30min+ for something SoG was doing in 6min 30s or 9min depending on the hardware).

Only a waste of time for the whole thing here, Grant, because the SoG CUDA tasks might report a bit more on the server, than the corresponding CUDA50 tasks here. |

I don't know where you're getting the idea that returning to stock was a waste of time. I did it reasonably soon after the problem was identified and after a few attempts to get tasks and get back to crunching, all has gone as one would expect. There was a drop off in performance as the system had to go through the questionable decision which are the best apps. Once that was decided as being the "SETI@home v8 8.22 windows_intelx86 (opencl_nvidia_SoG)" for my GPU, I admit I aborted the remaining CUDA tasks and it has run the SoG app without breaks ever since. My cache is full and performance only down by ~15% as judged by RAC. And some of that might be because the computer has only grabbed one AP task in this period. This for Windows, obviously special sauce Linux performance is a different matter. |

Hope all will be fine and we could be back to run the anonymous apps after the outage. Back in a couple of hours to see what we could expect. Fingers crossed. |

All Linux hosts are here without a job. I have reset BOINC at my last Win computer. He got 70 tasks without any problems and now needs twice the time per WU. I think it is time to finally optimize the clients. For all operating systems! We hav'nt money to throw it out the window. Merry Christmas to all Setians! |

I only set one Windows host back to stock so I could watch what was happening. I've now reported the last stock tasks in anticipation of an early outage, and restored the host to normal. It'll be patiently waiting for anonymous platform work whenever we come back online. My one fast Linux 'special sauce' box has a full cache and should see out the outage (if it isn't excessively long). I'll restore that one before I leave for my own holiday break tomorrow, and it can recover by itself from there. |

Can't connect to server.Yeah, but at least it only takes 4 secs now and not a couple of minutes... How about stock hosts? Grant Darwin NT |

Just had a look at the server page. Transitioners are all down, Feeder is down. And the Scheduling server is Disabled... So we're not quite back yet. Grant Darwin NT |

Server status now showing almost all functions as Disabled. Looks like the restart after the outage is having it's own issues. Grant Darwin NT |

At least we're back to Server version 709 now +1 I am still crunching through a bunch of Linux stock GPU tasks so I will continue being NNT until I can re-start my AIO stuff. Tom A proud member of the OFA (Old Farts Association). |

Let`s wait a couple of hours for the system to stabilize and then we could think to power up our hungry hosts. Time for Christmas dinner, wines & spend some time with the family. |

Hence the statement "revert the database"... We have coinciding with the s@h server reversion... An astronomical real-world reversion: Reversed polarity sunspots! Enjoy! :-) Happy Festivities!!
