Re: are my results late?

Yes, they are late but there is a grace period under which you can return the completed results and still receive credit.

If they've already started, let them finish. The manager is designed to handle nearly any scenario and it will deal with this one as well. Just let it do its thing and it will abort some automatically, report others (slightly) late and request more work once it thinks it can handle the amount it has currently.

Re: are my results late?

That's a lot of WUs. How many days do you have set in your cache?

And yes, they're probably already late. Is that machine on 24x7? how many cores, 3?

Re: are my results late?

You just have loaded too much work.

Temporary solution: Set No New Work and allow 4 cores crunching.
For future: Lower your buffer setting!

Since you're using the not by WCG recommended BOINC version 6.12.34, I dare wink to suggest to upgrade to BOINC 7.0.25 (no way back with work in progress).
Why: In that version tasks in 'high priority' will be crunched in deadline order.

Tasks not started before the deadline will be aborted after the deadline is reached.
