I crunched this one on an Athlon Dual Core 5200+ machine in about 19 hours. The second computer finished the same WU in about 5 hours. How can a Windows computer be almost four times faster than mine and claim such a relatively low credit? |

No, we cannot see but our own logs and result pages so thanks for the second post.

After trial and error am 100% sure it's not power saving features / reduction in CPU clock speed. Per definition none of my devices [can] do this and certainly they're not doing it for CEP only!

I don't think it's a specific problem of my computer. Sekerob above wrote about his "Blue Murder" post, where some examples for WUs with extremely different crunching times were mentioned, so I guess it must be something specific for this project.
