Yesterday Ageless gave a link to CreditNew in Panic Mode On (33) as part of a reply to my question on why this new server code is so bad.

Well I got news for them IT SUCKS.

Due to all the things introduced my quad has been in panic mode for several hours because it makes a mess of the completion time for work already on hand. (AP tasks that take ~12 hrs predicted at 200+ hrs) The computer has done nothing but VHAR MB tasks on the GPU, of these ~25 have validated.

The granted credits vary from 17.64 for WU 623832954, AR = 2.588309
to 129.14 for WU 623758468, AR = 2.729434

I think this needs further explanation, considering we had a system that gave the same credit for similar tasks and worked pretty well.

25 seconds CPU time vs. 9000 seconds CPU time both pay 372 credits!!!
No wonder averages are on the rise :(
