Anyone getting FGRP4 tasks?

A few days ago my computer was able to download FGRP4 tasks and crunch them fine. Then I needed to stop Albert temporarily from loading more work.

A little later I set it back to load more work, but it just doesn't seem to download anything anymore. I look at the Albert server status and there seems to be still over 2000 tasks ready to send.

I have tried to update, restart, change computer "location" and adjust the project setting back and forth. Nothing helps. No more work. I have adjusted BOINC to keep work for at least 7 days and for example now it has work only for about 3 days (one other project). Still Albert hasn't wanted to download any new tasks since Saturday.

Here's what the BOINC log says:

Requesting new tasks for CPU and NVIDIA GPU

Scheduler request completed: got 0 new tasks

No tasks sent

I'm I beeing punished for setting the project temporarily on pause? :D

(Just a Joke... )

So... There are a few factors some come into play here:

• We're testing BOINC's new credit and runtime estimation system here
• We reduced FGRP's task deadline to 3 days (might have happened during your absence)
• You "stopped" participating

The result of all that is that the scheduler "thinks" that your host (only one of them requested work during the past month) is too slow.

One thing that's important here: how exactly did you "stop" the project? Did you "suspend" the project (or runnings tasks) or did you set it to "no new tasks"? It depends on the exact action whether your host might indeed be too slow or the scheduler made an incorrect judgement...

Since you used "no new tasks" your computer should still be in good shape (in terms of our records of it). Suspending tasks for longer durations would have skewed it's performance numbers which are used to determine whether a host can finish a task in time. In your case all should be fine and the "too slow" judgement might actually be correct then.
