On the E@H Status webpage, GPU Productivity stats as per below are presented:

GPU productivity (last 7 days) #
Hosts w/ ATI/AMD GPU 8,410
Hosts w/ NVIDIA GPU 13,197
Hosts w/ INTEL HD GPU 974
Validating hosts w/ ATI/AMD GPU 2,094
Validating hosts w/ NVIDIA GPU 6,018
Validating hosts w/ INTEL GPU 139
Avg daily valid results (ATI/AMD) 2,419
Avg daily valid results (NVIDIA) 6,976
Avg daily valid results (INTEL) 2,427

Can someone explain how 139 Intel gpu's can produce the same Avg Dly Valid Results as 2094 AMD gpu's? The proportions have been similar for the past 10 days.

The number of results is not directly comparable. Intel GPUs compute BRP4 results, while NVidia and AMD GPUs compute BRP5 results, which take roughly 12x as many FLOPS as BRP4 results.

Wouldn't it be more

Wouldn't it be more informative to see the actual credits that were awarded for these tasks? Maybe you could add a column for that. I think it would make everything more compareable.
