Post: I know it sounds crazy but maybe its my processor working ultra fast who knows? I watched the 2 work units start and within 45 seconds they both had finished and uploaded to the servers. I was amazed because they had a finish date of 04 March and I was curious to see how fast they would process. I've allocated LHC 100% of the Resource Share for now because I was anxious to catch work units. There is no work available to download anymore so perhaps I got test units? They registered in the BOINC client because under BOINC Statistics tab it now says 0.40 for LHC@Home whereas it was plain old zero before. |

Post: If you blink you might miss them by the way. Both WU's took exactly 45 seconds each to finish and upload. Now the servers say it's too soon to ask for more work. |

Post: I put no new work long ago, so my BOINC client is not asking in vain. As you can see, I still hang on to it in the hope something happens. The trouble is, unlike some, I never got any work units in the first place so am still at a staggering 0. Meanwhile I signed on to a few others. |

I'll reattach to the project when and if that happens. No point in having Boinc constantly polling for work when nothing is even being considered. |

Post: ...but I\\\'m still unsure whether or not to give up on this.Sadly enough that is the only available information. Whether to give up or not is up to your discretion. You have the same information that some use to blindly believe in this project and that others use to discard this project as failed. Thanks, that's what I thought. I think it's time I found another project. |

Post: Well I'm no clearer having read that thread. While it's nice that someone went to so much trouble to explain things, I think that basically we are up the creek without a paddle. Maybe I missed something, but I'm still unsure whether or not to give up on this. |

Post: I know this sounds like the kid in the back of the car in various TV commercials, but are we there yet? I read that the LHC is back up and running but will LHC@Home ever get work units or is it now a lost cause? |

Post: Hi folks, new here. I realise that LHC was down for a long time due to technical problems at launch but how is it doing right now? I guess I joined LHC@home at the wrong time as I still haven't received any work units. EDIT: I just noticed a few posts regarding this elsewhere, so I guess it's just a question of waiting for the project to get started. Thanks. |
