They aint real pirates, they be just a bunch of lilly livered cross dressing sheep shaggers!

Finally I've got my machine setup for Rosetta - the F@H units weren't playing towards the end

*wheels out the cannons and prepares for WAR!*

FrostedNipple · 2 Aug 2008 at 15:23

I'm loading my cannon with cutlery, 100% Rosetta coming your way, seti on hold!!!

Mattus · 2 Aug 2008 at 15:38

Seems like there's no new WUs available ATM?

i'm getting the same!

TheTross · 2 Aug 2008 at 16:03

We may all need to use your cutlery at this rate FrostedNipple! Thankfully I have a fair few WUs cached, so I'm ok for the time being.

Mattus · 2 Aug 2008 at 16:34

Sabotage, I reckon!

At least my GPU client's still going...

Chasser · 2 Aug 2008 at 17:39

I've swung my four top producing rigs away from Seti and pointed at Rosetta (Oooooh Aaaaar) and can't get any work.

I suppose if we can't get work, those pesky pirates can't (although I bet they are not adding crunchers at the rate we are). Hope the existing stashes get us nearer to them until more work is available.

Goodspeed(TPF) · 2 Aug 2008 at 18:21

Keeping up to date.

AAArrrggghhh! Sabotage it be. Muahahahaha. No WUs fer you scalywags.

BTW. I'n checking here: http://boincstats.com/stats/team_stats.php?pr=rosetta&st=100&or=&co=
http://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/top_teams.php?sort_by=total_credit&offset=100

but it seems to be a bit behind. Is there a more up to the minute place I should be looking? THX.
Oh yeah, almost forgot.

AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!

Stan_Lite · 2 Aug 2008 at 18:47

Seems to be dishing out WUs now, I've just stocked up on some now with minutes to spare.

We shoulda paid the Boinc guys off with AMERICAN dollars as opposed ta these here chocolate covered cherries. Blast! :eek:

Berserker · 2 Aug 2008 at 19:05

It seems that there is work being produced, but not at full speed. Persist and you might get lucky.

Most of my systems have 24-48 hours cache so I'm OK for now at least.

Those pesky pirates might get a 48 hour reprieve, but they won't escape as it'll be hurting them just as much as us.

Yeggstry · 2 Aug 2008 at 19:28

Can you guys explain the cache/ WU system for BOINC? I've got 12 WUs currently queued up, 4 are completed, 4 in progress and 4 waiting. However, its been nearly 6 hours since it last contacted the servers to upload the WU. Is this normal, or should I set something up? I did the first 4 WUs I crunched manually using the update command.

Berserker · 2 Aug 2008 at 19:31

Normal. You can set BOINC preferences for how often it can (it doesn't have to) connect and how much cache to maintain in addition. I have mine set to connect every 0 days (i.e. when it wants to), and maintain a 2 day cache. The only exception to that is my work PCs which are set to only connect overnight.

Same here (well, mine's set to connect every 0.1 days) with a 2 day cache. I currently have 26 WUs cached plus the two it's working on atm.

Agreed. What you are experiencing is normal.
