[Asteroids@home] The work distribution issue has been resolved.

The work distribution issue has been resolved.

Due to the unusually high load during the BOINC Formula event, the server-side work feeder cache was being exhausted too quickly. This caused some clients to receive “no tasks available” messages even though work was available in the database.

The feeder and scheduler configuration has been adjusted, and the server is now sending work normally again.

Thank you for your patience and happy crunching!

Hi all,

Heads up: The Minecraft@Home infrastructure will be down for maintenance tomorrow, Saturday (May 23rd) starting at ~ 8:30 AM UTC, for some hardware and software updates.

Downtime will last for a few hours. I can't give an exact ETA, but I'll do my best to get everything back up and running as fast as I can.

Cheers,
Philipp
