Here's an interesting one. This host's claiming zero credits for each WU. If you look at his specifications, he has 0.00 for both floating point and integer speed. I wonder how much this will screw up the credits awarded...

Claims Zero Credit

Apparrently this host doesn't want any credt for its work, maybe it got angry on his owner...

No, seriously:

As it claimed fairly reasonable credit before Aug 12, I suspect something went wrong during the last benchmark. If this is true (and not an ongoing problem), it should correct itself at the end of the week, when it should run the next benchmark.

Until that, I am not worried too much about the total credit of a workunit. Chances are too small for two of these hosts to get Results from the same WU.

I thought it might be messed

I thought it might be messed up benchmarks also. I'll keep an eye on that host and see what happens - he should get new benchmarks in another day or so...

You were granted 0 credits on those 6 or so WU's because your results failed to validate. Your results did not compare well against the others who processed the same WU. Since you're starting to see this happen occasionally you should check your system to see if there's anything that could be causing it to produce occasional errors in computing. Are you running to hot? Change anything on the system recently?

The only thing that has changed is I did a OS update from Apple
