If I can only have 4 units cashe per core how does this computer have so many ???

That Opteron looks like a 4 way server using 6 core Opteron CPUs. So, BM tells the project that there are 24 cores (6 cores per CPU and 4 CPUs present). That means it can download 6 Milkyway work units per core, or a total of 24 x 6 = 144 WUs.

Is that a lot?

Seems to me it is the same as for me, with a quad core limit of 24 WUs.

If you look at his task list he has over 3000 I stopped looking at over 800 all showing in process.

The 4 valid units took 40-43000 seconds. Also has tons of errors, most seem to have timed out.

Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected the expected?
If it makes sense, DON'T do it.

If that's the case then his cache will time out.

my point is how did he download so many he should only have 100 or 120 at most how did he get so many tasks if I can only get 4 per core ????

My only thought is he was doing something with Boinc such as messing with an opti app or having pc problems and they wouldn't run and it ended up creating lots of ghost wus.
