Topic 191578

I am building quite a stock of pending credit, work Unit ID's
10855395
10886680
10917584
10944631
10972304
but they have not yet being allocated to another host.
and the unit presently crunching and the next one to crunch are in a similar position.
11010412
11016687
It seems strange that this is on my P3 and they are long units that take nearly a day to crunch. If it was on my Pent M or my sons 'fast' gaming machines I wouldn't be too surprised, as these machines process the long units in under 10 hours.
As it is now nearly a week since the first was issued I could have credit pending nearly 3 weeks if it is issued soon and successfully processed, maybe more.

Is this normal, I've not seen it this bad before.

Yes, several others have commented on this effect with the long S5's.

Thanks, hadn't seen subject

Thanks, hadn't seen subject had been noticed before. It would be nice to know how many users are sent the initial data file, and the decision process for the server that decides to send it to more users when there is a delay. I had assumed that with so many 3.x GHz machines about my 925 MHz P3 would not be zooming ahead of the pack.

LOL, yeah that's what you would think, but apparently old PIII's make a good showing of themselves. :-)

Winterknight I also have a

Winterknight I also have a dataset that has many pending....It seems some datasets have less priority than others.....I have 15 units 7 pending of which after a week sent to me they are now sent out to others....1 is over 3 weeks old and still is as the initial week delay,2 weeks non-performance by my partner and now sitting unsent again for 3 days (sense I have 4 days again before another resend to another host). Seems some wu's could take 3-4 months to validate by my calculations....very frustrating....I think the server could do a better job as some frequencies roll along sending out 50-100 wu's in 1-2 weeks where others suffer badly sending out 5-10 units in the same timeframe.

Administratin! Please intervene and help this situation!

I'm new at Einstein@Home and I noticed that I have 216 pending credits. What does it mean? Why are these units not yet credited to my total?

Thanks

Because you haven't reached

Because you haven't reached Quorum of results yet on those results.

You will just have to wait until the other computers send back their results and then for the validater to make its pass, before you are granted credit.
