Arr, This here be a boarding party

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!* :D
 
Seems like there's no new WUs available ATM?

I'm idling on two cores :(
 
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.

Sabotage, I reckon! :( :p At least my GPU client's still going...
 
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. ;)

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. :)
 
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.
 
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.
