What about doing something about these hosts? Imagine the bandwidth you'd save.

We trust the back-off mechanism of boinc...

Is it possible that something could be done to investigate the errors and change the applications so that they fail less?

That would be the ideal solution.

Nah, they can't be bothered. Same with news and updates about the project and science. Just keep crunching and hopefully donating plus pay you electric bill and keep up with the latest cards and we'll give you a whole bunch of meaningless credits. Having said that most BOINC projects are the same, a lot of take and very little give.

IDK if this is the same situation, but I know even on a contained supercomputer where nothing is overclocked, they have occasional errors... sometimes it's due to errors in the code, and sometimes it's due to unexpected situations in the science they are investigating. The first they try to prevent as much as possible because it hurts they're performance (just like it hurts our points) and they need more performance than we can give them, and the later just comes with the territory.

As a programmer I actually have to hand it to them. Programming applications like this is difficult enough. Pushing it across a distributive system just introduces more potential for difficulties.

It's part of a known problem, but we now need to check if the latest changes fixed the scheduler. We have ~100 WUs on the long and ~100 on the short queue, so please attempt an update. Do you still get no work?

Toni,

Finally i got one wu for my gtx480-machine. I will try the rest also now!
The normal download is two wu's for this machine.

Second change is NOT OK!
