Hmm. I got rare (about one task per few hundreds) and weird bug on Gamma-ray pulsar binary search #1 on GPUs v1.17
I notice some of WU can "stuck" - they NOT fails or hung, just stop progressing and do not use GPU at all (and very little of CPU cycles). Restarting taks can solve this, but usual it not help - processing resume from last checkpoint OK, but after some time WU stuck again. So i just abort such WU if i see one.
Now i notice what all such "stuck WUs" have warning message in logs
"Warning .... too many candidates ...... will only get the first fft_size/2 ones" exactly at point where WU stuck.
They rare, so not much computation is lost via aborts. But the problem is such WUs occupy computation slot for long time (until manual abort or computer reboot or deadline expiration) so one of GPUs idle for long time.
I have two recent Units on Win XP Pro x64 with EVGA GTX-760 that earned 3465 Credits. The MAC with two EVGA GTX-750TI SC cards has 10 recent Units that earned 3465 Credits. So, now, I'll be monitoring the new climb in RAC.

Just checked my RAC and in less than 24 Hrs have climbed to 59.9K RAC!!! Things are definitely looking better.

Dude, enough bitching about your RAC. Look up the definition before you complain about a term you don't even know what it means.

Getting ready for bed... One last check on RAC: [Update:]
RAC increased to 61.4K for the day. Crunching stopped at 9 PM - PST as usual; so, may drop over the next couple hours. Crunching will resume at 6 AM - PST and go for 15 Hours, as usual.

[MAC Update 1-10-2017:]
A second 1.17 Invalid has arisen.
WU #: 268394987 crunched yesterday.
[EDIT:]
Looks like I have three Inconclusives in my Pendings' List. These, potentially, could turn into more Invalids.

Thanks for the report. One of our scientists recently discovered the same issue. We're investigating and working on it.

A third 1.17 Unit has gone Invalid on me. Work Unit 268394987
So, the MAC OpenCL bug is ever still present...

Looks like ATI R380 and R280x cards are running this app very well..
