Doesn't matter, because our new breed of swallows keeps the same air-speed velocity in both cases

Ah but surely it's weight rather than wing flappage that is the criterion here. To cheat in the witch test, you could overfeed your ducks to ensure that the maximum amount of witches could be detected.

Just gave 133 CPU locked tasks back given that the original 5 year target is out of reach, lest the scientists perform a Tommy Cooper giant fez act with at least 1 month more supply [time I need to do 1 year]. If ever next level badge over Sapphire would be released, likely at 5 years, it wont become my first palladium. Bowing out at just over 4 years.

OK, as promised, I have returned 2300 CPU WUs to the well. I hope they help some to get a little nearer to their targets.

There must still be a heck of a lot of the CPU units in the wild because just short of 14 hours after emptying the caches of three machines, they a now filled up with more new ones than I originally had. About half of them are NOT resends.
----------------------------------------I am therefore going to keep some as 'insurance' in case the GPU supply runs dry before they are due to be returned and am returning over 800 into the wild. Have fun and keep crunching... Crunching in memory of my Mum PEGGY, cousin ROPPA and Aunt AUDREY. |

Of the sixteen pages (15 per page) of WUs that are running for HCC, my review says I only have two, maybe more, resends. The remaining are all binary. A lot of those WUs are for GPU processing.

I'm not going to make either 10 years or 30 million points,
----------------------------------------so I have switched the cpu's to toher things... will let the GPUS ride it out for the points.  |

Without any intervention from me, one of my machines has just started downloading 270 CPU units. I just can't give them away fast enough
