I'm starting to think that no machine (group of machines) should get more than one Beta until the Beta that has been processed is validated.
This would spread the betas out more equitably to the masses and afford more machines to get one.  |

Both were new Beta's, both on Linux.

And it would speed up things... I can't wait for the new project to begin I don't agree on that, if one machine with more cores would pick up only one Beta, it will slow down the process because it takes longer before all WU's are distributed. Every core has it's own process running. But anyhow, my feeling is that there is a sort of equality-distribution, because otherwise I would have more Beta's I think. But I can't proove that. |

The techs wrote some time ago to seek a wider distribution in order to expose the beta to more diverse hosts set. Anyway, I've asked in back room about current policy... how much maximum in one call and any specials. My beta client got 2 at the time though the buffer could have taken in a days worth.

The idea of people aborting everything in their queue just to have a chance to get beta jobs doesn't sound right to me.
Seems like dumping mass amounts of work just to try to get beta work would put a lot more stress on the servers. |

Although I did get some computers with more than 1 Beta, I averaged only 1 Beta per CPU core, which I realize is way above average.
On the other hand, you should realize how lucky we all are, even me, when the top crunching member could have absorbed every single one of the last beta WU and nobody would have crunched even 1 WU. Member Name: Results Returned: MakeCuresHappen 9,446 |

I had a restarting hiccup on my Beta WU on Vista machine. But then it went on and finished OK - Pending Validation.
