Posted 6 Nov 2004 by BigDawg Post: This happens quite frequentley to me. It does not matter if i am valadating against another windows machine or a linux box. I get about 1/2 the credits the others get that returned the same results. Any explanation would be aprreciated. Here is an example: http://lhcathome.cern.ch/workunit.php?wuid=572145 The other 4 results were granted 7.93 where as i recieved 3.97 ----------------------------- Scotty, I need more power!!!! ----------------------------- |
