(moderation:
I just recieved my first batch of S5 wu's. I'm looking at an ETC of 23hrs on the wu that is crunching as I write, iMac G5 PPC 1.9Ghz 1.0Gb RAM. Unix CLI 5.4.9
Is this one of the long wu's?

As your computer is hidden, we can't see WU name.
As you haven't provide WU name, we can only guess.
I would guess it's a longer one.

My first S5 workunit (h1_0251.0_S5R1__11430_S5R1a) has completed in 1h19m on an AthlonXP 2100+ machine.

My first long S5 WU completes in 19 hours which is 9.5x longer (measured in time) than the long S4 WU which takes me 2 hours using Akos S39L. This raises my eyebrow! Maybe these WUs are a little too long and/or the app isn't fast enough or cpu specific enough. I'm using Intel P4 3GHz/HT on and 100% EaH. I think the small L1 cache must come into play on my machine. Like someone else said, I can live with any size WU, but I "feel" more comfortable with shorter run times. I will go with the flow, however.

This is only half the story though since the s5 app is ~3x faster than the stock s4 one. This means that the WUs will take about twice as long to complete at the momement. The s5 app is still being worked on to get it closer to akos's s4 speeds. Doing that will reduce the runtime to stock s4ish levels which is what the project apparently views as an optimal size.

14 hrs 42 mins for first S5 WU. This on an AMD XP 1600+ system.
Got 138.83 credit...works out to approx. 9.45 CS/hr

I can live with that. Mine has yet to be validated. Interesting that your claim (the lower of the two) was also what was granted.
RE: RE: 14 hrs 42 mins

Is it built into the valiadator to use the lower of the two when there are onlt two sent out? If I remember correct uFluids was doing it that way when they first started up. With two units averageing them seems to be the fairest, but as long as the same for all it is fair.

Try the Pizza@Home project, good crunching.

Normally the host should claim the same credits, if I understand the new creditsystem right. Wondering about.
