Hey guys.

It seems that I have loss some of my contribution on the project.
Maybe not much but still I have lost points and my average seem to be going down all the time (even if I add machines !?!?!?).
What is happening here?

What happenned was that I had showing in the stats: eagle1 1.56 T cEMs
but it suddenly went down to 1.44 T cEMs and I haven't even gotten to 1.50 in this past day with 5 P4 1.6's machines running.!

Now, there has to be somekind of error somewhere right?!?

These are the links if you want to read on more:

If someone can help me or tell me what is happening, it will be very much appreciated.!

Thanks.

Do you have any tests that were partly finished, and then didn't connect to the server in 10 days?

If you have "send intermediate blocks" enabled, then you get partial credit for the work done so far. However, if the blocks expire, then you will "lose" the credit you had for that block, as you didn't complete it.

That is my only thoughts as of now.


Regards,

Garry

Well.. I mostly run the linux client and I can't find that option that you suggest.
But I'll check the windows clients and disable this.

Do you think that is the problem though?

The amount that you lost is roughly equivalent to the credit for one complete test (~0.11T). Given this value for a complete test, it's going to take you more than a day to make up 0.56T with five P4 1.6's. What are those machines doing now, about one test per 4-5 days? That would mean it's going to take 4-5 days to make up the work you lost.

WOW.!

That sucks.!!

I removed the client from 3 machines.
I hate it when I get into problems with DC clients.

Oh well... I guess my output is going to go down in the meantime.!

Thanks for the responses guys.!
