Yes, resume has always been supported. When the client starts or resumes an upload, it first asks how big the file is server-side, and then uploads starting from there. This is because if the connection drops, the client can't know how much data actually reached the server. Since changeset 18605, "if we've already queried the file size and haven't uploaded any additional bytes, don't query the file size again", which helps with server load quite a bit. _______________________________________________ boinc_dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ssl.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/boinc_dev To unsubscribe, visit the above URL and (near bottom of page) enter your email address.
