The saga of dropped connections continues. 

The bandwidth to the Berkeley SSL seems to have fallen about 25% :-((

When the SETI-BOINC servers were brought back on line yesterday
(Wednesday) the bandwidth seemed to be running at a capped 40 Mbps.
Looking at the bandwidth now (0700 UTC) this seems to have dropped,
about 6 hours ago, to a consistent 30 Mbps now.

This is likely to make the dropped connections, and completed results
uploading, worse. At least there seems to be a slow return to the number
of work units reported in BOINC Manager as "ready to run".


Berkeley turned the Classic servers off for a while, to allow the Boinc/Seti 
server to handle the surge.
