Yes, seems something is often getting stuck and catching up later, now my Xperia has 25.97 hours last day, which is not possible for a single core device. Never seen this so far. Perhaps they should get back to the 6 hours WUs, with them everything worked fine. "If it ain't broken, don't fix it" seems to apply here too.


It could also be how the new volunteers are allocated, if someone is doing this and somedays just can't for whatever reason, but things do work out in the end all it means is a slightly delayed new badge or new color on an existing badge.

Personally I don't mind a non linear progression of my stats as long as in the end I do get what I'm supposed to get. This is also ALOT better than not having wuprop at all!!

I doubt someone is sitting there and adding the hours to our stats by hand, this is done by software on the server and this obviously isn't runnig properly since the introduction of the shorter WUs (what's the point of them?).

Hard to verify currently, but probably we get what we are supposed to get, but not sure.

I agree but my thought was maybe a volunteer is now in-charge of running that script and it's not being done every hour or 5 minutes or whatever but instead every day or so as they get the time to ensure it runs and completely finishes without any errors.

I have a problem on my calculations too on my:

GPUGRID ACEMD 4: molecular dynamics simulations for GPUs 47.62 47.62

I crunch them but the hours aren't changing, I've had the same numbers for several days in a row now, BOTH the Total hours and Todays hours are exactly the same. Normally if you don't crunch something the hours return to zero after a few days, depending on how it was when you stopped, but these hours are not decreasing BUT neither is the Total hours INCREASING!!!

I'm pretty sure this was fixed/renamed recently, and is showing total hours since that fix, which stopped the app showing in red. I don't know what else might be happening with it though.

It was. Then I posted I was at like half the normal hours and there was a back of tasks.

What are looking at to see that? When I look at my Tasks I see this:
State: All (1312) · In progress (18) · Validation pending (1) · Validation inconclusive (0) · Valid (1293) · Invalid (0) · Error (0)

Are you saying that you have 25988 Pending? Or Inconclusive? Or something else?

He's looking at the projects Server Status page
On that page, right hand side of screen look at Stats table labeled Tasks by application / FOURTH Column labeled Not analysed
Currently it's at 0. If this number start growing, then there is a backlog.

Thanks I've never even looked at that page before!!

I like this part of the page though:
Users #
With credit 9053
With recent credit 1025
Registered in past 24 hours 0
Computers #
With credit 168368
With recent credit 5918
Registered in past 24 hours 11
Current GigaFLOPS 784.68

1025 current active users WITH almost 6000 pc's and 11 new pc's, some of those 'new' pc's could be me bringing mine back into the fold as I start to get all my pc's up and running again. Most of mine have been off-line for over a year so I'm guessing they qualify as 'new' ones.

They qualify as new if you deleted BOINC data folder on them so they got a new host CPID. It doesn't matter how long they have been turned off as long as the server can recognize them, even detaching and reattaching usually doesn't trigger a new project host ID if the CPID didn't change.

Not sure why its this one app but the last 24 hours aren't being removed. I haven't had one of these tasks since the 30th of April.

Now 48037.

It shows 0 sometimes but I think that is a false reading as no hours added since Saturday afternoon.

My home page stats hours https://wuprop.boinc-af.org/home.php are still showing task hours from several days ago counting as "last day hours", but the "last 24 hours hosts" hours page are correct.

I wonder if there is a check box or something not always being checked once the file is processed
