I'm not surprised things are not running at full speed, that is going to take some time. Seti@Home when it was active had weekly scheduled downtime for project/server maintenance, the recovery time was lengthy.

3) Message boards : News : Server Trouble (Message 72137) Posted 21 Mar 2022 by FurryGuy Post: Thank you, Mr. Donlon, for the BOINC Manager push notification regarding the status of the project. It makes the "no WU to crunch" withdrawals easier to deal with as we wait for MW@Home to start sending out work again.

We plan on being out for a couple hours at most. Best, Tom Regardless of the time zone referenced, thank you, Mr. Donlon, for letting us know what is going on behind the scene. The push notification in the Boinc Manager was a very nice gesture for letting us WU crunchers know hat is going on.
5) Message boards : News : Server Trouble (Message 72092) Posted 21 Mar 2022 by FurryGuy Post: We just got the repaired drive back, and we're installing it shortly. We are waiting to see if the server starts rebuilding automatically, or if we need to schedule downtime. While this is going on, I'm also trying to kick the DB and get things flowing again. Hopefully sometime soon we can have the server running normally again. Mr. Donlon, the only inconvenience for me is having WU fetch going on and offline. I know all we volunteers would like to at least have a bit of an status update notification from time to time, PLEASE! :)

MW@H is offline as far as crunching work is concerned.

There's plenty of tasks ready to send according to the project status, if the server programs were up and running.
8) Message boards : News : Server Trouble (Message 71953) Posted 14 Mar 2022 by FurryGuy Post: Thank you for keeping us "in the loop." It is frustrating to have the project's servers down, more so when we crunchers don't know what is happening.
9) Message boards : News : New Poll Regarding GPU Application of N-Body (Message 70992) Posted 21 Jul 2021 by FurryGuy Post: Not just yes for a GPU app for N-Body, but HELL YES!. Faster, slower, same time, is no big deal for me.
