It does look like there's something wrong. I shot up to 243 pages of PV.

Re: At the risk of asking the obvious, is the validation server overloaded?

Is there some sort of nightly maintenance happening?
The validations seem to have come to a halt around 01:16.

Re: At the risk of asking the obvious, is the validation server overloaded?

The two validators are keeping up. The long pending validation lists are due to wait times for wingman.

We would like to reduce the 7 day return window except that with the end of CFSW and near end of HCMD2, this is our only 'short' project. If we were to reduce the 7 day return window, there will be more users who cannot return any results within the allowed timeframe.

Even thought we want to keep them short, we are going to start putting multiple images into workunits. We are up to 1.3 million results per day and I will get very nervous as we approach 1.5 million results per day. Since we are working on Linux and Mac GPU now and we expect them to contribute a similar boost as Windows, we need to ensure we don't overwhelm the database. Unfortunately, this means pushing the CPU average time out to ~3 hours or so as we put two images into the workunits.

In the longer run we are also looking at ways to handle differently sized workunits within the same application. The goal here would be to put 3-4 images in a file for GPU processing and only 1 for CPU users. However there are some challenges involved in that so that will be awhile before we can implement.

Time to get nervous, biggrin

10/24/2012 381:310:04:47:48 675,237,363 1,504,065

of which the HCC part was yesterday

10/24/2012 46:326:05:45:24 235,249,486 1,036,354 (Yes the first single day single science more than a million)

but for the load distribution pushed pauses [issuing tasks and receiving result files is more important than validation], still see ** fairly prompt to immediate validations on the ZR sciences or whenever a wingman is present [inclusive the CPU based HCC tasks].

** When hitting update to clear a stag of Ready to Report and then mosey over to the Result Status page.

Re: At the risk of asking the obvious, is the validation server overloaded?

I did have to add a 3rd validator for Help Conquer Cancer so now it is keeping up. About 3 hours before end of day yesterday it had fallen about 50,000 workunits behind but the 3rd validator caught it up quickly.

We have in fact crossed the 1.5 million where I begin to get nervous. However things are holding up well so far. We are working on the changes to have 2 images per workunit for this project. That will reduce the results per day by about 400,000 and put us back in our comfort range.
