Re: Getting a flood of tasks way beyond WU buffer preference

In my opinion it's a BOINC client bug, but David Anderson is not convinced.
It only happens when app_config is in use with max_concurrent on app-level.
Fetch work is always triggered during the last three minutes of any running task.
Be happy WCG has a request backoff of 121 seconds, else WCG would even request more often unneeded work.


I think you are absolutely correct. I had this happen as soon as I utilized max concurrent recently.
