upload speed is still going down. With my latest upload about 1 hour ago, the speed was only about one third compared to what it normally is.

Further, I just noticed on the server status page that the program "db_purge" is listed in red as "not started".
Could this mean that within short time from now, uploads will no longer be possible (like it was the case one week ago) ?

'db_purge' is only, as the name suggests, a database function: the records of old, completed, tasks may hang around a bit longer. But they're only text, and won't make much difference.

The important one (as far as disk space is concerned) is 'gpugrid_file_deleter', and that's shown as running.

Richard, thx for the explanations :-)

Since this morning, I have noticed a markedly reduced speed with which finished WUs are being uploaded to the server.

Same thing was true about a week ago short time before no uploads were possible because of "no disk-space available" (at GPUGRID servers).

What I realize today is that the upload speed is back to normal :-)
