1) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : Leap in host credit score? (Message 38323) Posted 18 Nov 2009 by WilhelmGGW Post: Six days ago, I attached this CPDN project to the BOINC (v6.4.5) I\'ve had running for some time with three other projects: World Community Grid, MalariaControl.net, and Rosetta@home. This on an Intel Pentium dual core system running Ubuntu 9.10. Under the BOINC Statistics tab -- viewing Host Average/ All Projects, so that I get an overview of comparative credits output of the projects I\'m running -- the new CPDN shows a huge, nearly straight-line catapult over the other projects. This in just six days of work/reporting. All four of my active projects are set to share equally in computer resources -- 25% each. The other three projects have leveled off to average daily credit of 160-200, and their credits have not appreciably decreased in the past 6 reporting days. But CPDN has catapulted to almost 400! And the \"average\" keeps vaulting higher! (At the same time, I installed CPDN on a Windows machine I have, and the average reported credits there are much more gradually increasing, as I\'ve seen happen when I\'ve added other projects all along.) How do you explain this anomaly on the Ubuntu machine? Is CPDN that much more productive on this platform? Or is there a flaw in its credit reporting? Wow! Please explain.
2) Questions and Answers : Unix/Linux : Stalled Upload (Message 35966) Posted 19 Jan 2009 by WilhelmGGW Post: Can you tell me what\'s happening here? Is this normal? Is this work unit\'s service lost forever? Is there something I can do to make this work as it should, and as it has in the past? On my Linux/Ubuntu machine, I completed a work unit several days ago. It keeps trying to upload several times a day, and keeps coming back with messages like the following.
