Is this a problem? What can be done in this case? I've got >1000 pending creds and my RAC didn't move since this time.

That is what I have in my log from my dual-machine:

00:51 Sending Request+Downloads
xx:xx Finished+Uploads
02:49 Quota exceeded
xx:xx Finished+Uploads
07:58 Ready with all WUs

-> No WUs for the rest of the day, 16 hours free :-/

Wir betreiben LHC aus Spaß und Interesse an der Wissenschaft.
Wir haben es bei über 560 Teams ohne Anstrengungen auf Platz 70 geschafft und steigen noch auf.
Warum ein 1-Personen-"Team" gründen wie so viele und auf Platz 560 landen? =)

Wenn wir so auf 20 Mitglieder kommen, dann würden wir uns auch noch etwas mehr auf LHC konzentrieren, also z.B. eine Webseite erstellen.

> Can you give an estimate on how many workunits your dual-CPU machine can process in a day?

I use a dual Athlon MP 2800+ with 1GB Ram since Monday for LHC (100%) and it computed 280 results within that time. => 280/3 days = 93 WUs per day

But every day this PC reached the quota (~16 times per day), so there is the possibility to compute more WUs.

> Isn't deadlines, benchmarks and estimated cpu time used to prevent this?
I think that's right: On the first day my client downloaded about 90 WUs after benchmarking.
Other machines download less than that: I use a 600MHz machine too and that only fetches 10 WUs.

I think that the quota can be doubled without problems.

Another solution: doesn't the scheduler know how much WUs were sent and received? So when there are zero left, it can send more.

The Webpage shows that (over the day) less than 80 connections are established, yesterday as lhc had the overload there were over 150 connections. Isn't that a sign to cancel the daily quota? =)

Every page has another date so every page shows different stats:
home - seems to be up to date
home/computers - other recent avg time (but maybe this is intended)
teamsite - 1 hour delay
top teams - several hours delay, each subsite (1-20, 21-40, ...) has a different delay: Place 20 with Recent Avg 0.31, then next page: place 21 with 1.66

I guess/hope this will be fixed =)

Hmm, after 3 hours crunching there is no work because of "daily quota"...
Is this really neccessary? There are >5000 WUs ready but my PC can't do anything.

@yak: I have downloaded the 4.09 linux-client (binary) that can be downloaded from the lhc-page. The second PC uses a nightly 4.13-snapshot from the boinc.berkeley-page. I compiled it.

Post:
Is it randomized? Is it because of a "good" profile? Is it because of Credits?
How can someone become user of the day (and what's so special about it)?
I did not find an answer for that questions on the lhc@home site (maybe I'm blind *g*)...
