Thanks SystemViper Hi SystemViper, some of our upload/download servers are affected by the networking issue and thus file transfers may be throttled when server resources are not available to handle them. |

Any updated prognosis reports on the resolution of the networking issues? I agree. The networking problem is the main thing now, It get loads of units IF I can download them. Constant transient http error....

Same here, I am almost out of crunchable WUs and my cores are sitting idle. Meanwhile, by the time downloads restart the pending WUs will be outdated.

Are the number of WU being downloaded a part of the problem? In the past I might see around x2 (one extra set)6 of WUs download for each CPU I've permitted to run. So 20 WUs for 10 CPUs for example. Now I'm seeing ~x7?

On my side it is more a problem of getting the downloads to complete.
Large files tend to download without any issue, small files you have to hit retry anywhere from 10 to 100 times before it completes. Especially sub 1kb files.  But in general transfers time out a lot.   |

This is a real problem and it is difficult for me to manually manage the downloads on my 4 computers.
----------------------------------------But it is stated on this thread that they are working hard to correct the problem and that a solution should arrive shortly. https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread_thread,44273 [Edit 1 times, last edit by Doublec at Aug 27, 2022 11:52:52 AM] |

hi, you can do this to force downloading :
----------------------------------------the really dirty way is creating a crontask with "/usr/bin/boinccmd --network_available" every 10sec (no need to run it as root) and by user ca05065 For Windows users the command is: "C:\Program Files\boinc\boinccmd" --network_available The quotes are required because of the space between Program and Files.
My GPU compute WUs as fast as I'm crushing bubble wrap.
