RE: My DCF is growing

Quote:

My DCF is growing steadily with each WU crunched until the ETA shown in boincmgr has no basic with reality.

I do a pair of WU's in 2:10, which for my system needs a DCF of .45. Coming home from work today I saw the ETAs at 3:45, while the completed nonuploaded WUs were sitting at 2hrs. I stoped boincmgr and edited the DCF down from .7 to .45 to get the ETAs back in line, but they've already crept back to 2:45 while the actual WUS are still finishing in 2:10.

I'm having he same problem here myself on 2 systems that were updated to 5.8x. Started out at 2:30 per WU and now its up to 3:45 with completed WU's sitting at 2:30+/-

Hope it doesn't affect my getting work eventually, but so far my cache has stayed about the same. I'm set at .5 on days

I upgraded to 5.8.9 last

I upgraded to 5.8.9 last night, and it does look as if the fix has been included and is working. Estimated time to completion for WUs cached in the queue is slowly decreasing towards the actual crunch times.
