Hello!

The "S6BucketFU1UB search progress" section in the "Einstein@Home server status page" is currently showing -17,212 units (and increaingly going more negative).

Perhaps this has an easy fix?

Cheers,

Probably because of 40K extra workunits (80K tasks) added to the pool some days ago as commented on by Bikeman. These 'extras' were not accounted for in the original total number so as they are processed the running total will be higher than the original budgeted total - hence the negative number remaining.

Maybe - maybe not. They obviously know about it and perhaps, because it will be all over fairly quickly, they haven't worried about fixing it.

Cheers,
Gary.
