That's probably just coincidence as long as you're getting credit for them.

I should say here the Dash 9's may cause some problems on multi-processor rigs. This is evidenced by the result "hanging" rather than just overflowing output file and exiting like it's suppose to.

There are several threads here and in Q&A about this.

Those are just Dash 9's result file overflows and not a problem, in and of itself.

The simple truth is we are finally getting to the end of the old style data recorded on tape. As a result we are going through the tapes left which had never been run through the mill for one reason or another, one of which was the high probability of noise and interference on them.

HTH,

Hello everyone :)

Yesterday I recieved 2 work units, that were each extremely short. No, i'm not talking about 1 hour, 30 minutes, 15 minutes... I'm talking about near a minute. Here are their links:

http://setiathome.berkeley.edu/workunit.php?wuid=103014868

I believe they're a waste. Everyone from them that computer recieved 0.06 credits. You can't notice the difference!
