Posted 4 Apr 2023 by arcturus So what's the situation? Can we expect a limited amount of new work from this point on? Or are we left to guess what's to become? |

OUT of tasks
(Message 2857)
Posted 29 Aug 2022 by arcturus If you guess was correct then the number of available work units would grow over time but it remains fairly stable in normal circumstances so I guess your guess is incorrect :-) No I was correct. The demand imposed by added participants exceeded the project's production, plain and simple. With the contest over the demand has once again fallen below the work units produced. This bounce back in available work units is now stabilizing. |

Posted 28 Aug 2022 by arcturus Thanks for doing this. Should help a bit, but I noticed today that '[SG] LouisCyphre' hasn't submitted work since Oct 2015. Somehow the code needs further revision to select from a pool of currently active volunteers. I'm thinking 6 months. I'm not a coder but perhaps someone here could suggest a code revision. |

OUT of tasks
(Message 2851)
Posted 28 Aug 2022 by arcturus Where a project has a fixed limit of 600 tasks every 14 minutes and the existing volunteers process 600 tasks every 14 minutes how are you providing short term help? This is my confusion. Because the existing volunteer pool isn't consuming the full 600 in 14 minutes is my guess as there's usually no shortage. This 'excess' is quickly eaten up with a challenge as we've seen. If the number of volunteers grow, unless the project distributes more work, clearly there's a diminishing benefit to allowing challenges. |

Posted 6 Aug 2022 by arcturus User '[C@B] ljfc2001' profiled August 6 - stuck with it for 4 months, not seen since April 2017. It's a sure bet he'll never know he was acknowledged. |

Posted 5 Aug 2022 by arcturus User 'eLPeCKo' profiled August 5 as the user of the day on the main page hasn't returned work since April 2017. To put into perspective the flagship phones included the Galaxy S8 .. LG V20 .. OnePlus 3T. Kind of embarrassing profiling someone who hasn't returned a unit in over 5 years. |

Posted 31 Jul 2022 by arcturus I noticed one of my machines had no work and the server status shows Zero work to send. Can we have more work please. Even when work unit generation is reduced there's usually enough to handle the demand. It now appears the work unit generation has temporarily stopped. |

Completed, marked as invalid cases
(Message 2692)
Posted 4 Jun 2022 by arcturus Approximately 5% of all my submitted WU's are coming back as invalid with checkpoints all over the spectrum. The same hosts running another project come back at virtually 0% invalid. All hosts run around 12 hrs/today. Is this checkpoint bug somehow being aggravated by shutting my hosts down and is this failure rate consistent with other hosts operating part time? |
