Euler625: Work Unit request change/improvement needed

#1 Ungelesener Beitrag von Jwb52z » 14.05.2010 19:40

When every work unit for this project is done in your queue, it shouldn't matter when you last requested work because if there's nothing in your queue your machine is wasting cycles. It should know that your queue is empty and automatically download no matter when the last request was made.

My understanding is that the "last request too recent: xx secs" setting is there to prevent the server form being overrun by too many requests to answer. We had that Problem with RNAWorld, where sometimes 5 WUs where done in about a minute (not any more now). That makes tons of results every minute for all users combined. The Server just could not handle that many results (write them to database, validate them, assimilate them, delete them). The Disk I/O was too high.

So, even though single clients can possibly run out of work with that setting, the server always stays functional.
