I've noticed that I was for some time, completing GPU WUs and getting 775+ credits for them. Then, last night I notice I'm only getting around 225 to 320 for the work I've been doing for the last several hours. So.....did they nerf the credit again or are we just getting low paying WUs lately? Now for part two..... I've also noticed that the tasks pages on the web site don't retain the completed WU info for more than a few minutes at a time. I can fully understand that they don't want piles of completed WU just laying about on the servers forever, but how about a 24 hour period before purging the results instead of just a few minutes? ....Or is it just me? |

213.76 and 320.63 are the credits you should get for separation WUs. Credits for n-body are different and vary. So I guess the higher credits came from n-body WUs (done on your CPU). We have this short purge time of completed WUs since the new disk got installed. I agree, it's time to expand the hold time to a couple of hours now. |

Typically, I never do any MW CPU WUs. I have CPU WUs for MW disabled in my preferences. This tells me your guess would likely be incorrect. Anyone that "knows" or have at least seen the same behavior? |

Well I just took a look at my valid credits and being that I only see one result after crunching WUs for weeks, I can't truly say that the "double counting" thing which "might" be the cause, has actually been corrected or not. Because there are no visible records of my completed work, I don't have any reference points to look at either. I was hoping to find definitive answers to my questions :/ |
