stats whacked or did I mess something up

Post by aphonos » Thu Jul 10, 2003 9:21 pm

Are the stats servers goofy?

Or when I changed the command line on a few of my windows F@H clients to include -local -advmethods- forceasm, did I mess up how I get credit for the work?

folding.stanford.edu returned me server error. Bummer. And just when I should be back in yellow again.

Watching the folding stats is too addictive. Probably should be regulated and come with warning labels :-)

hear, hear! i check stats more than a dozen times a day :shock:

aphonos, i think its just the servers messed up, both stanford's and the colory one (i get a team 31574 doesn't exist error). only way those switches affect your credits is probably by making your score higher,faster :P

In a big way. On the 9th they went for a ball of chalk: I have been under-credited 70 points and at various stages [H], OC:Au and others vanished. And this morning they are in kit-form again it seems.

Yeah- it's comming back "Team 31574 doesn't exist in our database!"

So sad - I just know I must have broke the 1K barrier by now!

The extremeoverclocking page is back! Still wacky, but it's back!

I'm at 998.77 for the week. Argh! So close to yellow...

Seems that the stats are still missing submissions of WUs from the last day or so. A stats page without accurate data is just a bunch of pretty html.

It looks like the total WU is correct, except that since the site couldn't pull data every 3 hours for the past 1/2 day or so, some of the WUs for users got lumped together into the same time slot. And that the past 24 hour production for team stats page only includes points since the Stanford server recovered.

Without knowing more implementation details I don't want to be too harsh on the developer. But it would seem that errors in obtaining new data are not handled gracefully.

On the bright side, we're actually outproducing the Knights right now! Image

Missing points/units

Post by dukla2000 » Sat Jul 12, 2003 5:37 am

Anyone who thinks Stanford have lost their points should make a post in this threadat the Stanford/folding forums. It hasn't helped me yet but seems to be where claims are accumulating.

Update - that thread is being monitored and acted on (with feedback) by PandeGroup. I got my missing points credited, so had a blinder of a day yesterday. :D

Looking at SPCR daily work we have dropped from over 6000/day to +-4000/day since 9 July when the servers played up in a big way - if you have any records to justify a claim for uncredited WUs get on over to Stanford.

But how did you determine which WU's were counted and which not?

When I'm in town I run a log on a scrap of paper. Probably started out as a 'stats junkie' obsession, now I keep the habit as my laptops are not always on my LAN (which has internet), but need to be when they finish a WU. So the scrap reminds me when to shuffle laptops.

Also gives me a short-term forecast so I can crank the MHz (and fans) if it looks like you are gaining too fast. :D

Anyone have suggestions/links for those of us without a self-generated hard copy log? :wink: :) I think I can figure out how to search through the log files on the PC to find out what was submitted. Is there a way to find out if I was credited for a WU?

Historically (more than 24 hours back) I don't know a way.

The stats at Stanford only have a total, although in the extreme they do have a unit count by project but there is no time based log against those units. In the last weeks 'excitement' it seems to me that some WU were getting returned OK (according to the client) and were not showing on either the WU counter nor total. Others were triggering the WU count but still not clocking the total. All of which makes historic reconciliation hard/impossible!

The stats at extremeoverclockingdo have a unit/time record, but only for the past 24 hours. And Statsmanhas even less individual user time info (than extreme) and also seems to lag even more than extreme. I use the total @ Stanford and the 'last 24 hrs production' at extreme to tick units off my scrap of paper.

Don't know is there are any other stats sites that may be useful?
