see http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/fah ... ed?p=10200 I don't know why it's not on the project summary page, but you have 136 days(!) to return it. These are big (100MB) workunits, therefore the slow progress.

Actually, it's not quite that big. My old Pentium 4/HT 3.2 GHz unicore is chewing on one now - here's the log from when it was downloaded. I'm expecting this will take 6 days for me to get the 493 points. :roll:

While it is not in psummary, there is a valid link from the FAH v7 GUI Project 10200 with one of the better project descriptions.

re: the collection server. I don't know why it is shown as 0.0.0.0, but i have received one of these Project 10200 WUs before, and when it was finally done, the system did find a collection server to upload.

I've never seen the CS listed as 0.0.0.0 but it does make some sense.

First, note that Collection Servers are not essential. One is only needed when the primary Work Server is off-line, which is supposed to be rare.

Second, all of the servers are being upgraded. The old Collection Server code is broken and has not worked successfully with the old Work Server for a long time. The new Collection Server code does work with the Work Servers which have been upgraded to the new server code. I suppose 0.0.0.0 means that the WU is from a WS that's running the old server code and no CS works with it ... so why waste time trying to send anything to them.
