Re: Unable to get wu for 3 hours fixed by restart

Because pausing and restarting the folding reinitialize the request system.
When your client requests a WU and doesn't get one, it asks again, but after a increasing interval, so that the server, which is certainly already very busy if it cannot give you a WU right away, doesn't get hammered by constant requests.

Also. This message makes no sense.....

"13:03:19:WU01:FS00:0xa7:Reducing thread count from 29 to 28 to avoid domain decomposition by a prime number > 3"

In which way is 29 related to ANY other prime number higher then 3?
28 on the other hand can be factorised by 4 x 7 where 7 is a prime number >3

Thank you ajm.
So the longer time you have been unable to get a work unit the more unlikely you are to ever get one.
Does this going on forever with longer an longer time span between the requests for new wu's?

I suppose so. It might reset at some point, I don't know.
As for the message, its best sense here is that the system will prefer a number of cores (threads) divisible by 2 and/or 3. A prime number (like 29), is a risky choice.

Thank you ajm, I stand corrected, 29 is in it self a prime number.
"the system will prefer a number of cores divisible by 2 and/or 3", I'l keep that in mind.
