Mine still hasn't changed from the other day though I'm no longer actively crunching MilkyWay at the moment
Validation pending (4) · Validation inconclusive (917)

Seems to have stopped validating again, my Simulation backlog has been at the same number for days now.

I think you'll find that if you look at the oldest and newest items in the Pending Validation category you'll be losing some at the old end and getting some new ones that balance it out...

The server is still handing out tasks for work units that first went out around 11th/12th April, and a proportion of those didn't return a result before Tom's "purge"... Those will [unfortunately] require a second opinion and that goes on the back of the queue again ;-(

I haven't had a single N-Body PV item clear yet, but I only started doing N-Body just before the "purge" so my oldest PV entries are dated 18th April... I reckon those will start to disappear in about another week (and it is likely to take another fortnight or so to actually clear the entire backlog...)

Thanks for that…curiously enough I had 5 validated today dating from 11th April. Things are happening as you say , very slowly.

Mine are now at Validation pending (4) · Validation inconclusive (913), so yes but VERY VERY slowly!!!

I was at Validation pending (4) · Validation inconclusive (917)
on the 31st of May, so 4 days ago now.

N-Body's, so far seeing completions and new tasks.
5 Jun 2022, 1:59:02 UTC 5 Jun 2022, 4:30:15 UTC Completed and validated Runtime(s): 1,499.61 Milkyway@home N-Body Simulation v1.82 (mt)

Looks like the N-Body jobs kicked in around 11pm June 3rd. The image is from June 4th.

Think we have got to the point where the disk failed, lots of my Nbody are reruns of error on download from 24th March…end of the tunnel in sight maybe ?

I now doing Separation tasks only and my tasks stats are:
In progress (188) · Validation pending (4) · Validation inconclusive (694)

A week ago that last number was in the low 900's and from NBody tasks so yes I too think things are looking much better

Some of the work units I have just validate are #2 , made on 15th March , only 2.1 million left .

Yes moving along nicely 908 to 631 to 131 today... If you don't watch the water it will boil.

Mine too are coming on down very nicely:
In progress (188) · Validation pending (4) · Validation inconclusive (514)

Unfortunately though that 'in progress' number will only go down when they expire as the hard drive they were on no long exists :-((

Under 100 left on my backlog ….nearly there.

When n body settles out, what will it hover around? About 100,000 in the unsent? I can't remember....

I believe the "cushion" for N-body is 1,000 units... (The cushion for Separation is 10,000, as can be observed at present.)

It's great to see things settling out again!

OK, makes sense, since it's all cpu work and no fancy schamnsy high speed gpus.

The last Million…..my backlog is 35.

You are doing much better than I am: Validation pending (4) · Validation inconclusive (411), it is half what it used to be though!!
