Was I being too impatient?
With your computes hidden it's hard to give an informed answer, but generally the slower your system the less cores & threads it has, tghe less time the sytsem is on, the less time BOINC can process work while the system is on, the the larger your cache & the more projects you run the longer it takes for your resource share settings to be honoured.
In many cases, it can take months. If you only run 2 projects with no cache all cores & threads in use, systems on 24/7 & BOIJNC able to process work 24/7 your Resource share settings will start being honoured within a few days.

Is there no way to simply let the BOINC manager let the machine do the quota of tasks I have set through the projects? In my case 70/30 R@h/WCG.
Just let it be. The more you suspend & re-enable work & tweak things, the longer it will take for things to settle down. Depending on your cache, amount of time per day your system is on, amount of time BOINC can actually process work while the system is on, number of cores/threads in use & clock speed, it could take a week or so to settle down, or a month or 2.
But it will settle down eventually if left alone.

Try editing the cc_config.xml file to change :-

<rec_half_life_days>10</rec_half_life_days>

to 1 or 2

This should speed up the rate at which it learns the projects timings


Yep, thanks, that worked.

Message 96663 - Posted: 20 May 2020, 16:14:09 UTC - in response to Message 83085.  

Received a msg that said I was using an old URL. Said to delete account and establish a new one
with the following URL"https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/" which I did. The replacement
account does not pick up my old data which I had processed. It started me over and I'm at the
bottom of the list on my team now. Can the old account data be folded into the new account ?
My mistake following the Notice.

When Boinc is open, if you aren't already using it, set it to advanced view. This is a option inside one of the menus at the top of the screen.

Once in advanced view, in the Boinc window select the "Projects" tab, this should then list any projects you are involved with.
Click on Rosetta@Home, and on the left side of the screen, click "No New Tasks". This does what it says, and Rosetta will no longer request any new work.
Click on the "Tasks" tab at the top to see your remaining work. Let those finish up, they will report back normally.
Once your queue is cleared and all reported back to the mothership, go back to the "Projects" tab and select "Rosetta@Home" again, then on the left side of the window select "Remove"
Once Rosetta@home has disappeared from your list of projects, at the top of the screen select the "Tools" pulldown menu and select "Add Project"
Scroll down to Rosetta@home, click once on it, and where it says "Project URL" at the bottom, make sure the address says HTTPS and not HTTP at the start of the URL. If it says HTTP then click on the address and add the "S" to make it say https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/
Press next.
The next window that pops up, select "Existing user" (It defaults to new user) and log in as you would normally. Same email, same password. Everything is the same.

I should add, after you log back in and have reattached to the new HTTPS version, you do not need to do anything else, it should start working normally from there on out. It will pull down new tasks and start crunching away. Give it a few minutes to fetch new work.

It’s not establish a new account, you should rejoin using you existing account details. I do not believe you can merge two users so remove the new user and reattach to your old user and you’ll move back up the team rankings :-)

How do you update the project URL if you had the account manager setup? I can't seem to find relevant information how to tweak it.

Which account manager?
