Me and a mate have got the same problem and were wondering if anyone else is getting it

Since the last upgrade we have had PC performance problems and Workunits are taking longer to process!

We have checked everything on the PC's and have narrowed it down to this has anyone else had this problem and cured it?

Hi Dave,
this is a problem of the S@h client version 4.05. All others have this "problem" to.

I don't know if I'd call it a "problem". We don't yet know what exactly is going on with the WUs. They might be doing more processing.

Yes the WUs take longer, but all else is normal. No "PC performance" problems here.

I believe that people should set aside some time to read through this and other forums. There are plenty of threads here, and maybe in other forums about this very subject.

Hello
Most people are getting longer processing times with 4.05.I was getting 2 wu's done with 4.03 in 3 hours and 20 mins(ht) but with 4.05 they are taking 6 hours and 20 mins(two).People say it might be because they left the debugging code in and that uses up some cpu time.
