LHC@home

I have noticed that the Project's total credit column in the Boinc Mgr, is not updating even if connection succeeded, unless you are given a new unit to process.

I am using a P4 - 2.66 GHz with 512 kbRAM and WXP sp 2. When B Manager contacts LHC, the following happens:
14/03/2005 8:29:01|LHC@home|Sending request to scheduler: http://lhcathome-sched1.cern.ch/scheduler/cgi
14/03/2005 8:29:02|LHC@home|Scheduler RPC to http://lhcathome-sched1.cern.ch/scheduler/cgi succeeded
14/03/2005 8:29:02|LHC@home|Message from server: No work available
14/03/2005 8:29:02|LHC@home|No work from project
14/03/2005 8:29:02|LHC@home|Deferring communication with project for 3 hours, 51 minutes, and 52 seconds

Actually the contact has been ok, but the project update does not function, as the total credit stays at the figure of last time when a unit was received. Now I am shown with 2,715.94 credits, but in my account page, it has been 3 days now, which is showing 2,792.83
In other projects, it works automatically and even if no units are received, the total credit of the account is updated instantaneously. Can something be done to modify this?

I've seen that as well. I don't think it's a real problem, just annoying.

i believe that boinc manager updates seperatly for this project. im pretty sure that seti also does this. its the ones that have to dl work. they dl then requery to get the credits from the last one.

what i'd like to know is how eah dls the wus. or does the box actually get like fifty and it just doesnt show them and the due date is from when the last wu got sent in or somthing

EAH sends "one big file" (about 11.8 MB), what includes all off your future WU's. Everytime the CC is requesting for more work, it "liberates" datas from this "work-data-file" for the new WU's.
