couldn't find an "examples" folder on one of my Windows boxes in either the program directory or the data directories. The version I run under Linux doesn't have an "examples" folder either.

You have to be running BoincTasks. This is where I found it on my BT host.

~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/eFMer/BoincTasks$

I think you are saying create a file called "file_config.xml" or "config.xml"? Put it in the Linux exe directory for Boinc. Restart Boinc.

<config>
	<refresh>
		<auto>	4000	</auto>
	</refresh>
</config>

. . OK, you are running Boinc Tasks right, not just Boinc Manager?

? ?

That was the issue. Looked in wrong app. I don't think I am running BTasks.

If you didn't install BoincTasks yourself then you don't have it. ;-)

Cheers.

You can do the same thing with boinccmd. No need for 3rd party software.

I've noticed the different ratio of MB to GreenBank (blc) data too . I think it partially has to do with this file, 18dc09aa, being stuck. It is taking around 8 of the 11 channels in progress and nothing is coming out. Those 8 channels aren't doing anything. So there are only 3 channels working on splitting MB data.

And a month later it's still there.

WU deleters are backing up again, splitter output has fallen, again. Along with the Ready-to-send buffer, again.
Hope they can get the new download upload server sorted before the WoW event and it sorts out the issues impacting splitter output, or it could end up being a non event.
It's not a good sign having them struggling under even normal loads.

Edit- corrected server type (Keith beat me to it).

As far as I have heard there will be no new download server coming. It is the upload server they are updating to a new server with solid state drives.

it should help with all these issues. Bruno is upload server, but also file deleter, and also splitter_throttle_sah
So I think it should help to update this machine.

Deleters falling behind again, splitter output impacted again.
No effect on Ready-to-send buffer at this stage.

Not many WUs waiting on deletion, but the splitters continue to struggle.

I just checked and at 520 they were doing 50/sec

It's not the peaks that matter, it's the average. Those very brief peaks just aren't offsetting the lows, and how long they stay low.
Hence the less than half full Ready-to-send buffer.
(When things are going well, the peaks can be over 70/s, sustained bursts of 60/s).

It’s never going to survive the WOW contest

I sure hope they can fix these issues before WOW. We have been lucky in that there hasn't been much down time lately, but there have been many close calls, or warning signals.

We might need a new panic thread if they don't strengthen the system before then.
