1. Solar Activity

Solar activity has been exceptionally low with only 8 B-class flares during
the whole week.
The GOES background flux has been on A1-level since Sun, May, 14. There was
hardly any activity at all during the next two days. Unfortunately, a slight 
renewal of activity on May, 16 does not allow quiet sun observations. 

MDI farside images do not show any AR to rotate to the earthside soon. 

How many GOES flares occurred?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were      8     0     0     0
And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were      2     0     0     0
And how many had EXCELLENT coverage?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were      1     0     0     0

2. Memory management

The SSR fill level ranged between 18.4% and 17.0% by the end of the  last BGS 
pass today.

GSFC talk, "Synopsis of RHESSI rhadius rhesults".
