    WUs are being sent and a couple of us have some credits ... finally!

    But! This is VERY alpha right now and there are some major issues to be resolved ...

    Calling an illegal alien an "undocumented immigrant" is like calling a drug dealer an "unlicensed pharmacist".

    so what kinda credit is this returning and how many hours does a typical wu take ? It looks pretty pitiful right now.

    I just received an Orbit task on my core duo laptop. Estimate is 43.5 hours.

    Don't look for that to complete in 43.5 hours. They all seem to be taking at least 170+ on a q6600. The estimation for these workunits are way, way off! We're approaching CPDN lengths without trickle updates!

    Yep, gotta have a lot of patience with these ones and hope to God they don't crash (which has been happening!). I have one workunit on my Q6600 that is at 111+ hrs. @ 51% completed.

    I aborted the critter as I hate LRMs (long running molecules).

    Good Idea Vaughan, I wish now I would have done the same thing with the 4 I have be because these things are like the Eveready Battery Bunny, he just keeps going & going & going ...

    The 4 I have are @ about 210 Hr's now and within less than an hour to completion but that could still take 15-20 hours before their done the way these things run ...

    I won't be running any more unless theres a Trickle Credit System put in place or the Wu's get a lot shorter, somewhere in the 1-2 hour range would be more stress-less worrying if their going to crash or not ...
