Marks Rpi Cluster passes 20M for Einstein


Here is the certificate for Marks Rpi Cluster passing 20M credits for the Einstein@home project. The cluster is currently idling due to the heat, but as things cool off overnight it will get it going again.

Last week saw the Einstein@home download server not giving out any work due to filling the file system. At one point Marks Rpi Cluster had over 150 file transfers stuck while downloading. The project advised to abort them so the cluster was idle for a couple of days due to lack of work. Running a BOINC project requires constant maintenance and problems happen from time to time. I think the project staff do a great job of dealing with issues as they arise.
