If it's a total system reboot, I'd say that you were looking at the beginnings of a power supply failure. It might not be related to your upgrade to 5.2.2 at all.

Someone who is more technically proficient could probably tell you how to test it, and what to look for specifically.

Thank you, Mr. Buck. :) I'm a regular reader of the BOINC Wiki when time permits; I didn't have time to research it properly in this case. I appreciate the responses; my curiosity has been satisfied, at least until the next 'hey-that-doesn't-look-right' moment arises.

Good day to all. :)

That is exactly what has me puzzled, though. They are all showing as successful...although with zero credit claimed and, in some cases, issued.

Again, I'm not on a witch hunt; I'm simply curious. It appears that this fellow is crunching at a phenomenal rate, so much so that we're all just baggage. :) If it isn't legitimate (and I can't see how it could be), then he's figured out how to return a "valid" result without actually crunching the work unit. Would that not indicate that he has also 'cracked' the client somehow?

My curiosity has gotten the better of me...this individual and I share a couple of work units, and his <a>processing times[/url] are rather interesting.
