Looks like FreeHal has ramped up work generation, we have a handful of members doing the project. I don't have it figured out, maybe someone can chime in. But the project lets you run up to 25 wu's a t a time, they use about 5MB of memory apiece and no cpu resources. I saw briefly 14 instances of FreeHal on this C2D laptop alongside two other projects with typical wu load of 50% cpu apiece. It's like free credit!

So here's a request for StatsNstones to pick up the stats for FreeHal-  http://boinc.freehal.org/projects/freehal_at_home/stats/ and also DrugDiscovery- http://boinc.drugdiscoveryathome.com/stats/ 

Thanks, Gary, for all your efforts keeping up StatsNStones, and TSWB's site, it's much appreciated!

Free credit is free credit!  I signed up fro FreeHal.  I can only seem to download one work unit at a time.  I am getting an error "FreeHAL@home    Message from server: Project is temporarily shut down for maintenance" so that may have something to do with it.   Can't really complain about free credit though, so I will just wait to see what happens with it.

6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: We can't do it like this. In May, we had between 10000 and 30000 work units which were crunched at the same time.
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: Now, we have are almost 200,000. And the project server is not able to handle this.
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: Okay, you can say I failed as a manager. And you are right.
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: Now I decided to stop distributing work units for today to give server a chance.
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: Then, we have to find a solution. There are two possibilities:
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: 1.) We could lower the count of max work units at the same time to ~5 to ~10.
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: => less output, less credits, less server ressources
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: 2.) Or we need more server ressources, that would mean
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: either more donations or someone who donates a mirror, but i has to one with much bandwidth.
6/6/2009 3:42:25 PM    FreeHAL@home    Message from server: I ask you to discuss in your teams.

Looks like the credit ho's have swamped the project. I'd like to weigh in on FreeHal's decision making with TSWB's opinion.

I'm in favor of dropping the amount of wu's allowed to a reasonable number, as he suggests. What say everyone else?

I'd think that since he's overwhelmed with to much work being forced in to existence then its probably a good idea to limit the work pr user or PC

less wu's is alright with me

i agree, dropping the amount if wu's is the best since i have no money for donation or a mirror...

Is there any problem about the 16 years?, legally?
