Post: Well, i`ve had a change of heart, now running 2 computers 24/7, with a 3 day cache, given the chances of running out of W/U`s is often a given problem, i want to be sure my computers are not running idle until new work units are ready. |

Post: My single computer now only runs work for Asteroids at home, if the project goes down through lack of work units, or some other problem, then my computer is idle until such time that the project is up and running again, I run my computer 24/7, and I only have a buffer set for 0.75 days worth of work units. On average my computer has no more than 44 W/Us ready for crunching at any given time. I agree with the posters about some that hoard W/Us in case the project goes down, but a total waste of time if such numbers of W/Us get timed out, if people are hoarding that amount of W/U`s, then its no surprise to me that the project keeps running out of W/Us so quickly. |

Post: Basically Credits are simply Kudos for your participation in this or other projects, worth absolutely nothing in real terms, lol. The main aim of this and other projects is for you to GIVE your spare computer/android device time in the cause of science, we do it to aid the projects in the search for answers in science. |

Post: Are there some bad work units out there,Just had a work unit complete in 1 minute 47 seconds. and several others since last night that have completed far too quickly, anyone else having that problem??????? Just want to be sure its not my computer at fault.Most w/u seem ok but have had several that show invalid error reports.So far 5 marked invalid error, and still 4 pending that will almost certainly show invalid due to such short complete times. |

Post: Now it seems all the work downloads end up permanent HTTP errors. Can't get any work at least for one host, even after trying "update" for several times. looking at the status page, it showing only 3 tasks to be sent out, as a result, i`m not getting any new W/U`s at the moment, i dare say new W/U`s will be added at some point and soon as possible. regards, Tom |

Post: I see ~ 20% download errors in my statistics and also crunched but never validated wu's due to too many errors. +1 on Mikey`s points, i`m in full agreement with his thoughts.This is the only project my computers crunch data for,and i have learned over time, that things will get sorted at some point, so patience is the answer, either that ,or as mikey suggests, crunch data for another project until things are back to normal. best regards, Tom. |

Post: Thomas, i think this should have been reported in the problems and bug report section, however your not alone with the download errors, i currently have around 400 download errors, not sure if Kyong is aware of the problem at the moment, but as soon as he learns about it,then i guess the problem will get sorted, as far as i`m aware, Kyong has commitment problems due to moving to his new home and a new job, but as said, i`m sure it will get sorted as soon as he`s able. best regards, Tom. |

Post: Just noticed on the server page, that there`s only around 50.000 W/U`s left and ready to send,hoping then, that more W/U`s will soon be added, i only run this single project on my computers and hate to see them idle, lol. regards, Tom. |

Post: Probably just have to wait for the servers to catch up,But, i noticed 15 of the 21 W/U`s completed were uploaded today, leaving 6 still awaiting upload, so far they have not done so, plus, i have no new W/U`s downloaded at the time of writing this, i guess it will sort it self out in due course,at least i hope so. regards, Tom. |
