Why do I loose points in the last time? On april the 17th to the 18th and 26th to 27th.

I guess it's possible the server could be telling the client to abort unstarted work units that are past their deadline. But according to Google Gemini:

Yes, the BOINC Manager can and does automatically abort work units that it determines cannot be finished before their deadline, particularly if they are significantly past due or stalled.

I finally understand. The system is sending me a mix of tasks, including some that are re-sends because they timed out *on other people's systems* . Those re-sends have shorter deadlines.

This is not the case that tasks are timing out *on my system* .

I think a 31 second project update frequency is too often. I recommend something in the order of 2 minutes or 3 minutes. I have a NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti the fastest turnaround of task is over 3 minutes.

A 121 second project update rate is what WCG (World Community Grid) uses.

Seems like a longer update rate from clients would lower the server (and client) loads, lower network traffic, etc would be better.

Yes. I have to delete all such certificates in the popoup not just myphone to get it to work. Browsers only show the certificate selection UI when they have valid candidate client certificates to offer.

After seeing that behavior I read up on why this happens.

The issue is caused by IIS configured to send a TLS CertificateRequest before the handshake.
Once a connection has been established for the first time for a browser, IIS doesn't reissue that request. Also if the browser has no client certificates to offer, it doesn't launch the popup and sends back that it has no certificate to provide.

Its likely that under SSL Settings in IIS, client certificate requests are set to "Accept". This is because clicking cancel gives you access to the website and deleting all client certificates also works. If it was set to "Require" it would block access entirely. Most websites would set this to Ignore, unless they have a valid reason to request a client cert, which is usually on corporate intranets with special authentication requirements. That's the most likely suspect causing the issue, but there could in theory be something else causing the server to issue the CertificateRequest

In fact, participants don't need certificates, and there's no need to know about them.

I am aware about my website & how to access it. I do not see how this has any relevance with the Boinc project in question. Thank you for your concern though

Because its easier to blame you then admit the Gerasim site/project is still not up to proper working order.

I thought this bound was set conservatively, but I could revisit it. Either way, I don't think the parameter can be changed in the current set of WUs, but I can increase it in the next batch.

GeForceGT730
This card was released 12 years ago.
It has only 384 CUDA cores.

Is it possible your benchmarks think your GPU is much faster than it really is? The benchmarks are used to convert the FLOPS bound into a time bound, and 1138 sec sounds too fast for your card. Maybe you could rerun benchmarks, or find a way to spoof them to make your GPU look slower.

I wouldn't worry about overall credit as long as it is fixed going forward as you mentioned.

You're one of the most communicative and responsive Admins of Projects around

That does sound like a problem. I do know that the WUs for the new batch should take longer, so the credits should be higher. I might have inverted the scale factor.

I am currently on vacation, so I won't be able to fix this until I return in 2 days.

So my 4070 ti, which takes 3, 4 minutes per task, runs about the same number of tasks per hour?

RTX 4080 Super  10min 17sec, 3 at a time = 420 per day.
RTX 4070TI Super 7min 56sec, 2 at a time = 363 per day.
RTX 2060 Super  11min 26sec, 1 at a time = 126 per day.
