, even now that there are apparently OPNG WUs send out again. Ralf I've been getting OPNG WUs for several weeks now. Am I the only one? And the OPNG WUs, with their large number that are send out at once and each with 5 relatively tiny(ish) files, have been pointed the fingers at as being one of the possible sources of the download problems we are all experience...

From my side, it appears that the WCG network issues have now been resolved. There have been no connectivity problems or hangs within the past 24 hours or so, including the GPU tasks. Uploads and downloads have been smooth.

I don't know how typical my systems are, but I'm getting my usual quota of OPNG; what I'm not getting is any new ARP1 work (and not even a retry in the last day or so). Let's see what happens if/when we get both at the same time again...:-)Cheers - Al. |

Let's see what happens if/when we get both at the same time again...:-)Cheers - Al. The download issue appeared just when there was a surge of ARP1-tasks released. Also, their download speed was abominable, causing download problems for all other tasks, too, all over the grid. Which is to say, without those surges there were also download issues most of the time (and never any upload issues, let's not forget to be on the positive side  ) until all ARP1-tasks ran out.The current situation is that ARP1-tasks are downloading now in about 20 seconds. Really? Yes, really. (Last week they took 12½ minutes to more than an hour.) 29-Sep-2022 08:48:03 [World Community Grid] Scheduler request completed: got 1 new tasks UPDATE: Just received 2 ARP1-tasks downloading concurrently in 26 seconds.

That's good news. I came here to say two things:
1) I've seen some batches of OPNG arrive this morning, with no apparent problems downloading. That suggests the connection issues have been resolved. 2) I've also run a few ARP1 tasks. The problem there - in addition to the initial connection problems - has been an extremely slow download speed, holding the connection open for much longer than it should be needed. If that's been cured as well, then we're good to go. |

Downloads are going smoothly here, too. Even ARP and OPNG, which always were troubleslome, are flowing in high speeds here.

While ARP1 downloaded roughly 2 days ago peaked at 15 MB/s while many of the large files was around 8 - 9 MB/s, the downloads roughly 19 hours ago was down to 1 - 2.5 MB/s again. Still, it's a huge improvement from the 50 KB/s - 100 KB/s.
----------------------------------------Also, it seems ARP1 validator have finally managed to catch-up, after being over 1 week backlogged for many days. Since surprisingly enough managed to fill-up computers with Rosetta@home work, it's 19 hours since last asked for WCG-work, meaning no idea whatever WCG is currently dishing-out.

Haven't paid attention to ARP1, but for the last 3 days I get MCM1, OPN1 as well as OPNG WUs just fine, not a single issue...  Ralf  |
