But not that good as intermittent ![]() During yesterdays beta distribution: On a quad core I had been running CEP2 as my only project, I set number of workunits per host at 1. Then I increased the cache and hit update. I got the following message: 10/6/2014 10:19:35 AM | World Community Grid | Not requesting tasks: don't need (job cache full). I don't think this is going to work as a way to gorge on betas. |

The Beta batch has probably ran out - I have not received any neither. But today it worked fine for me

I ended up with 52 of them today, but not through any special effort.

How many cores does 996 gflops represent? Posting the trick exactly is of course making the chance lots smaller to fetch the initial and the repair. It would disturb the anyhow sloped playing field even more. Whilst, though you can not specify, beta has a overarching feeder priority, so when there at the right time to ask for work, you'd get them, whether special settings or not. Provided there's room in the buffer, for if there is not you get 'don't need'.

Intermittent projects still worked better than your method (of which I can fairly certainly guess) simply due to more work units finishing. With a high buffer, those short units report immediately and therefore trigger more work requests.
