Very nice, thanks to the team. I can see that the validator lag is 3 weeks. More, many WUs I sent back a few days after the downlaod (mainly mid september) have 0 credit, despite they were sent in time, and the claimed credit was reasonnable. Does that means ther the client (I use the optipized 4.30 client of team macnn for ppc 7450) is sometimes wrong ? or some other client claimed 0 credit for the same WU, or what ?

the validator is back up and i hope to get some credits too in the near future. since i bought my new computer, there where only a few credits coming in: about 150 from expected 1500. lets wait and see.
lhc has turned the result and pending site back on; it is nice to monitor the process of validation not being as opaque as here.

Of course, as we post, the validator is turned off...

Same here. I've seen credit rolling in slowly as the validator continues to catch up, followed by a big jump yesterday and a smaller one this AM.

You may have just been lucky. :)

But, I have seen both of those kinds of behavior so, it could be either ... I know I have been picking up credit off and on, I still don't pay it much attention as it is not that important to me ... (Yes I know that this is a serious sign of mental illness, but I am on SSRIs and the doctors assure me that soon I will be back to normal, or at least as normal as I ever was ...).

The validator is still running behind - I just looked at my account screen, refreshed, had 100 credit added - I kept refreshing, and after 60 seconds I had picked up 900 credit. It seems to come in bursts, and I have picked up about 20000 credits in the last 2 days. Be patient, you will get your credit...

EDIT: Note my total credit in my counter below, and then look at my total credit for my account (189517 as of this edit). Note I have added 13000 credit since the last counter update a few hours ago.

I have not gotten any credit in 16 days. This is getting old. I am only running BOINC on 1 of my machines. I cant see putting the other 14 on it until credits get more regular or the Pending Credit gets turned on.

Could be one of two things, probably a combination of both of the following:

1. The validator is still behind, and just hasn't gotten to them yet.

2. One, or both, of the other participants that were crunching the same WUs as you have not returned them on time, for a variety of reasons, which would cause them to be reissued and drag the process out as much as another two weeks.

The verifier has been backlogged recently. I expect that it will take a while to catch up. XML stats are not being exported until such a time as S@H has new hardware for the stats generation.

On 9/23, I uploaded about 40 work units that I had processed while offline traveling over the prior 10 days. All of these units had 9/25 expriations, so that they were uploaded well within the expiration range.

Now, more than a week later, I have yet to see the big jump in total credits that should have come from this massive upload.

What's going on?
