The last five days have been flat.  My computer seems to keep on processing, but it seems there have been no updates since 6/8/21.  My stats have remained flat.  Is there a problem or just backed up?

Where are you looking at your stats? My stats have been updating normally here on this site and in BoincStats as well.

All my CPU GW tasks have been

All my CPU GW tasks have been sitting in my pending que also for the past 5 days.

I checked another members computer and his CPU GW tasks were being validated.

The server status page looks okay, so I thought just be patient and the backlog would break, but you are seeing the same.  Not sure what is going on.

Just take a look at the

Just take a look at the server status page.  The O2MD1 CPU app shows ~150K pending whilst the FGRP5 CPU app shows only about a quarter of that number.  There are more tasks 'in play' for FGRP5 so you might expect there to be more pendings for that search - all other things being equal.

There are a couple of possible reasons for the high pendings with O2MD1.  Either the staff are deliberately delaying validation (unlikely) or there aren't enough computers doing O2MD1 for Locality Scheduling to allocate hosts to all the different frequency ranges being analysed at the moment (more likely).

For anybody sufficiently concerned about this, you could check for yourself by just looking to see if there is a second computer allocated to those tasks that you see as 'pending'.  If there isn't, then that would explain the high pendings.  If there is, blame your quorum partners :-).

There is nothing to suggest there is an actual 'problem' at the moment.

Cheers,
Gary.
