Have a 2 to 3 day cache set for Boinc. Noticed the cached WU's start with
about a 2 days supply but drops down to just one WU one before the cache is
built back up to 2 days worth. Is anyone else seeing this? Is there an
explanation or is it just a Boinc start up issue, not enough units
available? Seems like the number of cached units should remain relatively
steady at whatever limits have been set. Didn't use a cache for classic so
don't have any comparitive info. TIA
Not sure if it's the same problem, but...
My caches are filling with small numbers of units, with 26-28 hour
completion times (before they run), which are actually only taking 4-5
hours at most to process.
Both my machines have run the benchmarks in the last day or so, so
maybe something at Berkeley has gone awry?
The units seem to complete and return OK, but who knows, with lots of
the stats turned off.
If you are getting a similar set of units, 2 units would take you over
the 2-day minimum you have set.
