So how is that possible?[

WUprop is not a good place for the number of WU's going out at any project. It only tells about the number of WU's the partcipants of WUprop have been getting, and extremely few of WCG participants (or participants of any BOINC project) are connected to WUprop.

More accurate places to look, is at the URL for the individual WCG project. Even though these URL's on WCG is not totally accurate now, because of the ongoing problems here, they are much more accurate than WUprop, when it comes to the number of WU's going out to the different WCG projects.

For the currently active projects here, use these URL's:
OpenPandemics - COVID-19 History
Africa Rainfall Project History
Help Stop TB History
Mapping Cancer Markers History

Just compare the WUProp data for Mapping Cancer Markers. WUProp says Mapping Cancer Markers,10186 Workunits the last 24 hours, and the internal WCG URL for Mapping Cancer Markers, for October 22, says 575,300 Results returned. It's the same kind of discrepancy if you look at the data for the other WCG projects.

So forget about WUProp when it comes to telling about number of WU's/day for any BOINC project. It only counts WU's for people connected to WUProp, and thats's clearly not many at all. It's much better to find the internal URL's on the BOINC projects you participate in. They will show data for all participants, and not only data for the few who participate in WUProp.

My queue is empty again. I've been running a short queue so as to share the few WUs we get. I can see from the stats (thanks Grumpy Swede for the links - I hadn't noticed that those pages had started working again) that there are plenty of WUs, but I'm not asking at the right time, or people are slurping them all up and hording.

I think that if possible instead of filling up the hopper and having all these errors and then having it run dry, that it might be better to release a smaller amount at random intervals. It would give any stuck downloads a chance to go though and finish. It would also allow the limited WUs in the hopper to last longer.

There could also be a limit on how many WUs a user/computer could have in a day. To help spread out the WUs. I know this would make some people howl as they want their big custom systems to have all the WUs, but some computers are empty while WUs are waiting in your queue. This shouldn't be an issue once they get things working again at full speed (hopefully full speed is better than this).

I think if they could get the ARP project moving that it is close enough to being finished that it would reduce the load on the system over all.

I'm trying to have patience, but it is cold again and I can run the system all day, and I'd really like to help out WCG over any other Boinc project.

Yesterday I noticed that the statistics for my country were running behind the statistics on my Overview page. I was hoping that the situation would improve today, but it didn't. As for me, there is a huge discrepancy in the member statistics (runtime, points, results) between Overview and the statistics presented by country. In Overview I have:
235:126:11:25:55 runtime, 2,583,359 results, 1,056,742,065 points,
on the geography pages for the Netherlands I have only:
235:062:09:21:32 runtime, 2,582,179 results, 1,052,473,525 points.

Personally, I am missing 64 days of runtime here.

I am thinking that the unavailability of the website also impacted the availability of the database, so that some data didn't get updated. Yesterday (Saturday) at 11:00 UTC the website went offline.

How are you going to have this repaired?

@Greg_BE

There is a prompt in the profile, up near the top of the options, that asks to use CPU for research (or something like that).

Not sure if answering NO will prevent the system from requesting non-GPU tasks. I usually leave that as a YES and select all options for GPU - the system is able to send me the appropriate GPU packets if any are available for my platform.

I know how frustrating it is to want to process WU but not get any (or as many) as I hope for.

I am at work at the moment and my computer resources is limited to my iPhone.
