Just got a couple of tasks from a brand new application. Let's see what the team will say about it.
It seems to run very fast, similar to the old v0.03 tests. Deadline is 4 days.

There must have been very few. I got none. My Boinc client has been getting so few in the last week that it tries seldom.

There were the usual 2x10.000 tasks but they were all taken within an hour. I missed it too, only got about 25 of them on one laptop.

Fresh batch of 2x10k tasks! Managed to grab a few hundred this time.
I checked the estimated computation size and it's almost exactly 1/30 of the v0.04/0.05 task computation sizes. Seems to check out in reality as well: my dedicated miniPC that usually takes 15-16 hours to crunch a v0.05 task is on track to finish these new ones in exactly 30 minutes.

The website only updates about once an hour. These tasks were all taken in a couple of minutes. I have the same settings as you and managed to get a few extra tasks with manual scheduler requests, but the last tasks dried up about 50 minutes ago (around 11:48 UTC).

Same here.
Up to now 80 valid wus and 0 error (on my Windows).
Well done!

Over 600 valid tasks split between Ryzen 7 and Intel Ultra (both on Win 11). Only 1 inconclusive.

Latest batch (Ks_4) just got released, computation size is 5x larger than previous batches. Runtime seems to be 5x longer as well.

I got a bit less of 20 tasks since yesterday on my intel iMac. They calculate average 4.5 hours but one took 17 hours to complete.

Deadline is too short, or there is something wrong because the server canceled one of the tasks on the same day.

Credit is lame, but hey, this is a bio project after all.

Those were resends from missed deadlines and probably got cancelled because the original task was finished before yours.
I had to abort a couple of tasks as well yesterday/today because crunching went slower than expected and there wasn't enough time left.

Whoosh! 20k WU's sent out between 08:00 and 10:00 this morning. Gone very quickly.
Only one of my PCs managed to grab some.

Weird that it doesn't show up here

My bad, it does show up, I just had the wrong time setting. Congrats to anyone who got some, my rigs all missed it.

I did not get any either.

Part of my problem is that my Boinc client is now trying less than once a day to get new Denis work. Basically, the slower the server makes work available, the slower my client bothers to look. I do not know if there is an upper limit to these delays.

I run linux and have a cronjob that runs once a day, it can also be run from the command line. It's pretty simple and has a line that reads:
boinccmd --project https://denis.usj.es/denisathome update
There's other stuff in there, but you get the gist.
As far as work goes, I haven't had any since June 25th which IIRC was the drop dead date for that last big clump of tasks.
