Hello,
Wonder if someone can explain why every now and then I get a GPU work unit that wants 6 days to complete when all the others only take 5 minutes.
If it matters, I am using a Nvidia GTX 1070 TI graphics card.

Thank you.

Carmine

It's the video driver that you are using, revert back to 431.60 driver and the problem goes away. ;-)

More info can be found here, https://setiathome.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=84694&sort_style=6&start=0.

Cheers.
