Hi,

I see major differences in the new S5R1 work-units. On my 3 computers (1 Windows XP, 2 Macs) I receive WUs that all take approximately the same crunch-time of roughly 9,000 seconds. However, on my Windows computer and on one of the Macs they receive 84 credits (e.g. Result ID 68717626 , Result ID 68753890 ) while on my second Mac they receive only 55 credits (e.g. Result ID 68843151, Result ID 68843139). What is the difference?

Theres no difference. Please see this post from Bernd which explains that some work has gone out with too generous a credit value - ie around 84 credits. After the fix, the later work will drop back to around 55 for the same amount of work - exactly what you are seeing. Your second MAC has obviously got the "fixed" work :).

Cheers,
Gary.
