Can anyone explain why my job was marked as invalid? It looks for all the world to me that my results were identical to the canonical result, and returned before the 3rd copy came back.

I wonder if the validator is comparing to a greater precision than is displayed in the stderr.txt

The std.err.txt file is just a summary, it doesn't tell the whole story, but I don't know enough about it to explain it.

Appears to me that the validator found enough difference between your and _0's results to rule "inconclusive" and send out the _2. Result _2 aparently agreed with _0, but was not sufficiently similar to yours, so you got marked invalid. Happens sometimes between stock CPU and GPU or Optimized apps. Joe/Richard/Claggy could give you a more-detailed explanation. Unless it starts happening often, I would not worry about it.
