Morning All,

I've read the threads about the results table being cleared, but I thought the results table was supposed to allow you to check what you've processed and the credit requested vs. got. My current results are disappearing before I can even see them.

I guess this will cut down on the posts with questions of "why credit is not being granted with no discernable reason", but I wish they'd slow down some.

Isn't this the way that the pending table was supposed to work?

Cheers,

JJ

Table should be purged, if credit is granted your work on that WU is done. You have nothing to do more with it and then the result, validated one, goes to the science database and it is removed from this one. It is how whole system works. Sure, they have limited space for db and upload/download directories.
ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!

I agree. There's no reason to keep old stuff floating around in there. Far more optimized to have the old cleared for the new.
