After quite a while I am leaving this project. Normally wu's take 2-3 hours to complete. For the past few weeks I've seen some that will take 5 days or more. I even saw one that would take 88 days. I'm not just about wu's, but the wu size is just all over the place lately. I'm running Ryzen 9 3800X and 5800X at 50% CPU time, 75% CPUs available, 16GB memory, so not really a hardware bottleneck. Anyway, glad I could help, time to move on.[/i]

"However, we understand that if your goal is to use GPUs to obtain a large amount of credit quickly, there are more efficient ways to do this and other projects that can better use your resources."

My goal using GPUs was to process more information for the project, not to get lots of credits. Some might do this, I was more interested in helping with the science.

Probably like others, I am a Seti@home orphan too, but congratulations to milkyway@home for achieving their goal! Look forward to reading the publication. I'm moving back to Einstein@home on a couple boxes but will leave one milkyway@home dedicated box running.

I've seen some expecting a week, but a work unit expecting 109 days seems wrong
