Just thought - a suggestion ....

You have a well tuned setup that will eat the MW cache. If there are server issues for example, and they take longer than 15mins, you are toast with no WUs. Frustrating when you wake up to look at a machine thats been empty for hours still running server imposed back off.

Try the BOINC Project backup facility. To use that, set the resource share of the backup project to Zero. What will then happen is the BOINC Client will detect that MW has zero WUs, and auto switch to your backup project (the one you set to zero resource share). It will supply WUs one by one from the backup project as a resource slot is available. Once it detects MW is back in business, it will switch back and you get full load MW again.

To do it, you will need to update your Client from current 6.10.60 (I suggest 6.12.22, its a Beta version but its fine for 99.99% of uses), then go to BOINCStats, open Host machines, click on yours, and set your backup project(I suggest PrimeGrid as its also low memory project, or use Collatz if you keep your memory at 1300) to zero. Update client by using the "sync with BAM" option in Client main menu, and you are good to go.

The facility does work, so if there are issues, you have a config problem somewhere.

There shouldnt be a queue problem then .... the buffer length you set is compared against the total number of WUs held in your Client from Projects who are not suspended. The fact that they are waiting to be crunched because of date pre-emption from the running project, can get forgotten. So if the total time (as shown in the Client, never mind it maybe a wrong time) of WU's queued is less than the Buffer you should get more - well you will ...:)

Project limits can overide BAM settings, but not to the extent you are showing. (Collatz limit is 150 WUs per machine, and MW is 12 WUs per GPU)

There have been a few problems recently at MW servers, but thats over with, right now supply is fine.

Are you having a queue problem with other projects?

Whats the buffer set for (and the "time between connection buffer" - two separate figures) ?

lol i get no buffer at all it seems, dont use bam and trying to use lower memory clocks does not work lol cat and msi fight a ton 1 card downclocks 2 dont 2 down clock 1 wont. So i just left them at the 3dclocks i use i didnt see much in temp differnce if any when i did get them to downclock.

Assuming you are water cooled .... probably wont see much temp difference as most gets taken away by water cooling, but you will use less power.

I can see your stats on BOINCStats, a fair chunk, so you must have been running WU queues before ??

If you dont use the BAM Client, what are you using to manage Project WUs?
