Is my LODA directory supposed to have 149,355 *.ASM files?

If not, can I delete them??

Thanks,

Win

After seeing your post I decided to look at one of my Windows PC that I recently did a project reset (detach, reattach) on. I see the project download a ton of file into the project directory.*

* It appears the project will download all the old data files that specific PC has used in the past.

Currently on the PC referenced above, there is 698 sub-folders,153178 files, consuming a minimum of 504 MB disk space!

I will be following this topic to see what the project administrator says.

Thanks!

In the mean time I have removed LODA from by BOINC Manager.

Another issue with these many files and folders is it takes BOINC a fair amount of time to enumerate and change attributes/permissions when upgrading and also takes a fair amount of time to read upon initial BOINC startup.

Can you please review the forum topic linked below and post a response why so many files are needed to be kept from old tasks and the large size of project folder?

LODA needs a local copy of all known programs to be able to compare mined programs to the existing versions and decide if the new version is better.
