Since I started Cuda yesterday I have over 4000 'pending credits'! How long will these take until they get claimed? I know the 'second user' has to report their results before that happens, but I was curious where other people are standing. Is this number going to keep growing out of sight? Are other people using their CPU to crunch these same units? Are their enough cuda users to pair off to claim credits?

Thanks!

Quorum partners are not paired by type (CPU to CPU; GPU to GPU; Linux to Linux; etc) for various reasons. In fact, to ensure the integrity of the results, GPU should not be paired with GPU exclusively, or any other system type.

Pending will keep growing depending on the speed of the system; how many systems are attached to an account and the efficiency of the application in use.

I have over 9,000 pending right now, and it's slowly growing, but so is my claimed credit. It's just that you're completing tasks quicker than your partners are. I have 4 systems running and my RAC is about half of yours and still I have pending credit. I wouldn't worry about it :)

..and growing rapidly *shrugs* no worries mate, I have pendings on LHC from like 2002 still.

Pending credit now stands at: 25,000

I usually sit around 10-12k but it's been going up since I started running CUDA at the end of last week. Some of the build up is probably related to general network bottlenecks slowing down WU reporting...

If this isn't the case then CUDA really kicks butt in a serious way!

Wow, ok mine seems like a drop in a bucket compared to all of yours!

My pending is sitting at just over 20k. My RAC is continuing to grow but not nearly as fast as the pending is.
This is simply the deal with cuda cruching so fast.
I have to say, even with the issues (like cuda causing the cores or its self to hang) the processing power is more than obvious.
I am now running the client in stand alone mode and monitoring my 2 systems using BoincView. Its cool becasue it shows the CUDAs in yellow becasue of the low CPU efficiency. Speed is at least 10/1 over one of the Q6600's cores.

My pending credit has grown to 72K+ but my RAC has also been growing too.

before this becomes a pending credit thread, please see the pending credit thread on the NUmbers Crunching Forum
