this WU was done in 8k sec while this one in 77k sec

Have they changed the WU workload size ?

Hi debugas

There are 2 types of WU-s big and small.

Slow computers get small ones most of the time.

Fast computers get a mix.

If you take a look at the WUID number it will tell you the story.

For example:

h1_0357.0_S5R1__25356_S5R1a

In this case the first all numerical value in the ID tells you what the Template Frequency is for the result. IIRC, if this value is >= 400.0 it is classified as a long WU, and takes roughly 10X longer to process than the short ones.

Of course, you get roughly 10X more credit for it as well. ;-)

HTH,
