Gerasim 'pending' build-up

[vaughan]

Gerasim site is very slow to respond today. I have many tasks waiting to report but I have to click to send updates multiple times until I can get them to move. Very time-consuming. I tried leaving them to pile up but the numbers got too large. I think Serval needs a bigger pipeline to the Internet.

Good afternoon.
2 AMDave:
Oh, this is Bok's "Loading Stats Data ..."..
I read in his blog that he bought in the spring of a new server.
I do not understand why everything is so slow. May be host-stats (large files) so slow down the response?

.. while checking out your project status.

Maybe Bok uses IP-address to get the status of the project ? But on the same IP-address may be a number of projects.
I believe that the use Boinc-RPC solve the problem.
At least 2 requests Gerasim-server provides the standard answers.
Server status: http://gerasim.boinc.ru/server_status.php?xml=1
Scheduler status: http://gerasim.boinc.ru/sched/gsm.sched

2 voughan:
Thanks for the support of the project.
I remember that you helped when Gerasim still only took the first steps.

- This is most likely a coincidence.
Saturday and Sunday - days, that I use to update the project. Last weekend I updated the Upload / Download server.
Several times I forbade upload and download tasks, Upload / Download server was working under a debugger ..
Please accept apologies for the inconvenience.

BTW:
By default, Boinc Manager reads/writes two files simultaneously.
Why not increase to eight?

Add into the file C:\ProgramData\Boinc\cc_config.xml the following lines:

<cc_config>
<options>
<max_file_xfers> 8 </ max_file_xfers>
<max_file_xfers_per_project> 8 </ max_file_xfers_per_project>
</ options>
</ cc_config>

(if file not exist - create it)

I think Serval needs a bigger pipeline to the Internet.

Now the speed of access to the Internet 10 MBit / sec and used for no more than 10%.
The high speed will result in additional costs, which is highly undesirable.
*****
Currently, all workunits have a quorum = 3( tasks per WU).
As you know, it's not the best option. To speed up the calculations, I offered to transfer some workunits on quorum = 2.
The proposal was rejected by the scientific director E. Vatutin.
But in the next set of workunits 2 / 3 will have a quorum = 2 and 1 / 3 of quorum = 3.
If all goes well, in future, all workunits will have a quorum = 2.
*****
About CHECKPOINT:
Chekpoints yet little curves. They occur every 15 minutes.
If the calculations were continued after chekpoint, granted credit will be based on the time period after the checkpoint.
That is, if the calculation took about 5 minutes after the checkpoint, the participant will receive a credit to 5 minutes of calculation.

The task will be calculated correctly, but the main income - to the project.

We can not promise to fix this in the near future, but we will try.
