Ok I'm finally getting ATLAS WUs again (thanks for the assistance) But have noticed something strange The WUs are coming with an 8 day due date, but SOME are randomly being cancelled by the server and re-issued after 3 1/2 days , but not all that have been received on the same date/time are cancelled No loss, since none of them had actually started processing, but why is this happening? |

So no one has an explanation for this bullshit? The ATLAS server knows (or should know) that I am returning 3-4 WUs a day, but sends me 12-15 every other day' Then cancels them before the due date |

I don't know the answer to you question but I see this happening also. |

So no one has an explanation for this bullshit? Do you have "Save work for more than x.x days" or "Save work for xx days too" in Boinc-Preference active? |

Looking at the workunit seems like someone else returned a successful result so yours was cancelled, did it actually run though? As the others said maybe you have a big work buffer, it should go down over time once it work out the task rate properly |

Nope WU sent to me only with an 8 day due date Cancelled by the server after 3 1/2 days and sent to another cruncher I've got a work buffer of 1.5 days /.5 days No other project has a problem with this |

mittlere Taskdauer 3.65 Tage shown for Atlas on your Computer. This is very long for a Atlas-Task. Normally is a duration of 4-6 hours. |

mittlere Taskdauer 3.65 Tage shown for Atlas on your Computer. That value (3.65 days) includes the time tasks are waiting to start on the computer, not just the crunching time. |

If it never ran then it didn't waste any time on your computer. It wasted some bandwidth I have 0.5/0.01 day buffer for LHC seems fine for me as it very rare that I have no internet connection. It can take a while for the BOINC work buffer to get its self sorted out, so it will get less crazy over time. |
