Not getting many tasks

I crunch all projects (except CEP2) and get very few CFCW tasks sent to me. Reasons?

Re: Not getting many tasks

I'm guessing here, but I suspect the reason is because it's still new, so that means that the badge hunters are concentrating on it. WCG tries to share out the work each day between all the active projects - if there are a lot of people doing only this project they'll get most of that allocation, so people who're doing all projects will mostly get WUs from other projects.

They'll move on eventually, and the load will even out again.

Re: Not getting many tasks

I don't think that's true. I have my project preferences (check yours) set to CEP2 and CCW and I get pretty much 100% CCW.

Re: Not getting many tasks

Don't quote me on this, but I think I saw somewhere, sometime, that C4CW has a lower priority on the "hopper".

Anyway take a look at this thread.

Re: Not getting many tasks

Re: Not getting many tasks

I think what happened is tied into the other active post on this forum. several crunchers were reporting all of their tasks were erroring out of no where. I think the techs pulled the project off completely at one point and even now they don't have it back up to the same priority it was once at.

I'm referring to this post

Re: Not getting many tasks

Here are the counts of workunits distributed by project yesterday:

         23 2010-10-25 Beta - The Clean Energy Project - Phase 2 
84497 2010-10-25 Computing for Clean Water
81061 2010-10-25 FightAIDS@Home
198152 2010-10-25 Help Conquer Cancer
117738 2010-10-25 Help Cure Muscular Dystrophy - Phase 2
71553 2010-10-25 Help Fight Childhood Cancer
87304 2010-10-25 Human Proteome Folding - Phase 2
4791 2010-10-25 The Clean Energy Project - Phase 2


The various distributions have a lot to do with the runtime each workunit takes. I.e. Help Conquer Cancer workunits average 2.6 hours while Computing for Clean water average 4.2 hours.

We are currently running Computing for Clean Water at lower than its fair weight due to some back end issues transferring completed results to them. We are working through those and will return it to full weight when those are resolved.

Are you still not receiving work for this project?

Re: Not getting many tasks

At the moment I'm getting a message that the project is down for maintenance.
