Reached Daily Quota

I keep getting the message that I've "reached daily quota of 16 results" on my dual core system, but I'm no ways near having completed that many work units. I typically average 4-5 results per day. Is this a bug?

This is a VERY interesting bug report.

I looked at the scheduler logs, for host #401331. What's happening is that your system is suffering from the 'GHOST WU' problem. Very often, a WU which is sent does not reach your system. When the WU is RESENT, it is counted (again!) against your daily result quota.

I will fix this in the scheduler code. But meanwhile, you should try to understand why frequently your machine does not get the WU which are sent to it. Any idea why not?

[EDIT 10 min later]. I have found and fixed this in the server-side scheduler code. Note that it may take me a few days to get this fix into place on our server. Meanwhile, please see if you can help understand why WU being sent to your system are frequently 'lost in transit'.

[EDIT 13 Sept UTC] I have just upgraded the server-side scheduler code. This problem should go away for you on 14 Sept at 00:00:00 UTC.]
