Stopped getting bigadv WUs. Is it me?

Post by cmh » Thu Oct 27, 2011 2:30 pm

I recently set up my Windows folding box for bigadv, and initially got six or seven bigadv WUs in a row. Now for the last couple days, I haven't gotten any. Is this normal? Do I need to change anything? My PPD is in a swoon. Thanks!

Chris

it's not just you. I have been getting nothing but standard work units for the last number of days. I'm not really sure that I have gotten a big advance work unit yet. I think it really STINKS since I just dumped $500 into a new 2600 K. and mother board setup for folding.

Well, such is life.

Yeah, I've been seeing the same thing too. It happens sometimes. I'll check around and see if I can find anything.

Ah, looks like they're shifting some servers around. Hopefully back to normal soon.

Just picked up a 6900, with no meddling on my part. Never mind. I'll try not to be so needy.

Looks like it is going to take about 2 weeks until things to settle back to normal based on that forum link.

Yeah, I've got 2 machines doing smp jobs now, only one bigadv. Although they're still hanging in, my 2600k linux box is doing a 7506 WU at 37.8k ppd now, so that's cool, my total ppd is around 109k ppd, but if I get 3 smp jobs, it'll drop for sure. Ugh.
