I'm waiting with much interest for some BRP5 work.
I've heard that they will be GPU only, not CPU, and quite long run times too.
On my slow GT 610 GPU they will take ages to finish. I hope we will get suitably high credits for them.

You can try on Albert@Home to crunch them. But it´s difficult to get one. Most time you get BRP4 work. I believe, they have a very limited number of threads available only. I tried it, with no luck.
I don't really want to join the test project. I doubt that my small contribution would help development there at all.
I'm sure that BRP5 work units will soon be distributed here on the main project, when they are ready.
I averaged the last 10 WUs for each type my GTX580 completed and found the BRP5 runtime to be 11.86 times BRP4. Based on my sample the BRP5 credits would need to be 5,930 per WU to be on par with BRP4. It seems like 6k credits should be expected.
BRP5?

No. The work generators only run when the "Tasks to send" queue is getting low. It's normal for them to be "Not Running".

Kind regards and happy crunching.

Based upon my est. run times, none have run yet, the rumored 2K credits will be a big hit on my Rac.
I've done some of the BRP5

I've done some of the BRP5 wu. Runtime is 10 times longer than BRP4. Currently none is validated so I've no clue about the credits.

My first BRP5 wus are now

My first BRP5 wus are now validated and credit was granted each with value 4k.
4k seems low. Equal work

4k seems low.
Equal work should result in equal valuation.

Low for some cards, high for others. It's... unfortunate.
