I'm trying to download a CEP task & keep getting this message - I never got it before today & am NOT getting it on my other machine!

Hi Mark
----------------------------------------There is a detailed explanation of why this happens somewhere in the FAQs!! The quick way to avoid it is to alter Number of workunits per host for The Clean Energy Project - Phase 2? on whatever Device profile you are using, to something other than 1. [edit] SekeRob's response to a previous occurence of this problem: This is not necessarily measured because of WCG, but the slowest project your computer has communicated with. My laptop runs the 'small' SN2S exclusively [small files give high transmission overhead] and is measured by BOINC as having 20KB up and 208KB down, enough to receive the single CEP2, which has that default setting if only 1 task is allowed! Permit 2 or more in your device profile, Read The Friendly Manual, and the BW limit is ignored! Then for all WCG cares you can run a 2400bit modem, and wait a day or 2 to receive 1 new Specific topics in the CEP2 forum. edit: bolded the important bit for those above and below this post. ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by jonnieb-uk at Dec 9, 2013 12:21:52 AM] |
