Hi, started crunching for the time today so im still learning how everything works. How long does it normally take to validate each WU? When thing are optimal about 30 sec. after both you and your wingman report the work and have a similar result. It depends a lot on who get the other copy of the WU. I had a situation where my result was pending for 3 months. I went through 4 wingmen with an assortment of problem -- first one didn't agree closely enough so another copy was sent out. The 2nd went AWOL so it went to due date before reissue, 3rd took 4 weeks and had error in result, 4th took about 2 weeks to turn in the result but luckly had a near match to me and my original wingman so all three of us got the credit. The majority of times it get validated in a few days to a week. Boinc V7.2.42 Win7 i5 3.33G 4GB, GTX470 |
