Rickjb: When I went to the profiles I am using via the device manager, I have the following set for both systems:
Connect to network about every 0.3 days
Cache 10.0 extra days of work
Am I misinterpreting something about how these values should be set?
Are there any other consideration for increasing tha amount of work that gets downloaded?

Thanks, Dave

Considering that the deadline of several WCG projects is 9 days, the 10 days buffer setting is not advisable unless running RICE only which has a 12 day return requirement.

BOINC will always work to get tasks completed 24 hours before deadline. So having 10 days will make the client surely run in Panic mode, High Priority.

Overdue work is currently not automatically canceled, thus you could end up completing work that does not give credit if deemed "Too Late".

Overall, considering the very high uptime, such buffering is not needed to always have WCG work on hand. Travelling laptops, e.g. only able to upload once per week even would not be able to complete all the buffered work, thus 3-4 days is probably the most practical amount one should cache.

Do we have a guesstimated time frame on when CEP will start sending out new WUs? I know the team is working on it now...I was just curious.

Well, considering that this project temporarily ran out of WU's on the 23rd of Feb, it's certainly taking some time to 'drain away the stragglers...'

As yesterday (3rd of March), we still had these statistics come through...
Total Run Time (y:d:h:m:s) 0:058:22:17:24
Points Generated 125,800
Results Returned 109

I get judged as being harsh sometimes and have even been accused a know-it-all, but some of you are making it just too easy.

Don't you think that the Scientists and Technicians are working as hard as they can to get the problems fixed? Don't you think that they want their project(s) running fast, soon and reliably? Don't you think they wanted CEP back up in a week rather than a month or more? Don't you think that every cruncher is anxious to get CEP back up?

There are a lot of people who have vastly more invested in CEP that any of the crunchers. If you feel the need to complain about a project or criticize what other people are doing to fix a project, how about telling us what you are actually doing to fix the problems.

There have been many crunchers that did a lot to help fix the CEP problem(s) by reporting their results and observations. Now we just have to wait, and hopefully we all wait quietly, holding back any critical thoughts.

ps: Passed 10 years run time yesterday
