It is designed to reflect "Recent Average", so a yesterday's results are more important than last weeks or last years. I seem to recall 28 days being mentioned.

Details from way back here

Thanks AgentB

also ... I recently overclocked my cpu from 3.3 to 3.95 ghz
with that, the work units completed about 5 or 6 minutes faster
the Gpu is stock speed. Oh yeah - I boosted main memory from
2100 to about 2500mhz
The memory boost might be the main reason they are faster.

I wouldn't expect the R9 Nano to produce 170K on an old cpu

Bill, I'd like to know what

Bill,
I'd like to know what temperature does the Nano reach, GPU clock and GPU usage while crunching during a longer period.
I was deciding between a Fury and Nano, and I liked the low power of Nano, but my worries were that the Nano would be hitting the power limit while crunching and thus reduce the clock too much.

Howdy ! It bounces around

Howdy !
It bounces around between 950 - 1000mhz
Stays at about 67 Celsius.

Thanks. Temperature is relatively OK for such a 1-fan solution, but probably won't be good for summer. Clock seems better than I expected, but when running more than 1 task it will surely enforce more drastic throttling.
What's the GPU utilization when running 1 task ?

I've been experimenting a bit

I've been experimenting a bit with the settings.
I boosted the Power Limit +5%
Not much of a change but, the GPU is now hanging
closer to 1000mhz most of the time.

@Mumak The GPU utilization jumps around alot. One
minute it will be 94% and 3 seconds later 84% then
77% and then back up again.
It is not steady like the older 7970 in my other machine.

Thanks for the feedback. If

Thanks for the feedback.
If you want to get a better picture of what's happening with crucial parameters over time you might use a tool like HWiNFO ;-) and either open graphs, or do sensor logging.

Say Bill, What is your

Say Bill,
What is your average time for one of those 4400 pt. pulsars? That data point would be very helpful to me. Thanks man.

Howdy Merle,
Right now - the way I have it set, it is completing
them in about 37 minutes. I 'thought' it was doing them in
35min at one point but, I'm not sure what I changed here.

Well, it's fun to play around with it !

Later, Bill

His computers aren't hidden so you can go and see for yourself :-).

That's a whole page of 20 (plenty more available, if you want) so you can see the variation in elapsed times. At the time of posting, they ranged from ~2180 to ~2280 secs which is ~36 to ~38 minutes.

Cheers,
Gary.
