Hey all, I've noticed over the past two or so weeks that I'm crunching about 40% more work units daily and on average I'm getting about 20% more credit for each work unit done. Not a complaint of course! But what's behind this? |

We've been plagued by "noise bombs" for the past couple of weeks. So there is your 40% more completed tasks. We have also been getting a regular diet of Arecibo files too so there is the cause of your increased credit per task.

Yeah it seems to have gotten faster. The shorties for the moment have ended their rain of error, as has My browser but that's a different story. The T1 Trust, PRR T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, 1 of America's First HST's |
