on yoyo@home project https://www.rechenkraft.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=16645

I have the same error, so I ask if there is a limit on the WUs number that can be reported all at a time ??
In my case I had about 700 WUs to report

Or there is other limit ??

Not in general, but you can set your own limit in the client configuration file (cc_config.xml) if you are having problems or for testing.

<max_tasks_reported>N</max_tasks_reported>
Report at most N tasks per scheduler RPC. Try N=1000 if your computer has lots of tasks to report and is having trouble completing a scheduler RPC.
(I'd suggest fewer)

There can be problems if you are trying to report a large number of tasks after an outage. Such problems are more commonly caused by the size of the request file, or the length of time it takes to process it, rather than the sheer number of tasks reported. Another tip: if the server is being really sluggish, set 'no new tasks' for the time being - the server has less to do if it isn't looking for new tasks at the same time as processing the old ones.

Excuse me
but my cc_config tells

<max_tasks_reported>0</max_tasks_reported>

I think that there is no limit (usually 0 means no limit)
or is best to set a bigger number

Yes, '0' is a placeholder for "no limit" in that case.

I'd leave it like that, and only set an actual limit - and a much lower one - if the server continues to have problems processing a large number at once.
