another one

asked for 0.23 - got 8.43

another result asked for only 0.16 to get the 8.43

keep them coming, I'll take all you've got

although one of the other results only asked for 0.56 and got the full 8.00

3) Message boards : Number crunching : INVALID half the credit results (retitled) (Message 4628)
Posted 29 Oct 2004 by znoga
Post:
just got credit for 3 new results.

They were all added to my host & user totals - almost immediately as granted.

The unadded result (refered to in the first message of this thread) has not been added yet.

I have to believe that it is due to the fact that it is marked "INVALID".

Anyone else have one of these "invalid" half the credit results? Were they included in your totals?

not sure if we are on the same wavelength, but I was refering to my personal user & host totals rather than the leaderboard totals.

it used to be instantaneous, when credit was granted both host & user totals were updated.

Just had a result granted credit, although it was deemed "INVALID" it was granted half "VALID" granted credit, but the credit is not reflected in both host & user totals.

the following 2 workunits have a huge discrepancy between 2 valid returned results.

http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=498123
http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=496283

the high CPU times for each comes from a Linux box. Coincidence?

-edited in-
just noticed that the 2 high CPU Linux results also indicate a heartbeat problem.

Posted 26 Oct 2004 by znoga
Post:
just returned a bunch of results and when I check the result pages they all show

Received - a valid date/time
Server state - Over
Outcome - Unknown
Client state - New
Exit status - 0 (0x0)
Validate state - Initial
CPU time - 0
claimed credit - 0
Granted credit - 0

When these results left my machine they had a non-zero CPU time

what gives?

the following 2 must have reached the maximum limit and ended with 0 credit & "Check skipped" notation

http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=174065
http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=221193


the following have 5+ successful returns and still sending out more

http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=233540
http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=72810
http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=233539
http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=51930
http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=245522

access to the results database has been quite slow for the past few hours. Took about 2 hours to access the above (except 1) workunits and they were all on the first screen of my results display.

It appears the validation process is finding very few matches.

starting to see workunits being granted credit with
