Strange points calculation

Hello,

I have a WU with strange points amount: https://secure.worldcommunitygrid.org/ms/devi...s.do?workunitId=836717198
I don't understand why one computer has received nearly 600 points for this WU, and another one was awarded less than 150?

Re: Strange points calculation

I'll try to copy&paste the results here:

E215945_ 081_ I.30.C23H13N5S2.00144379.0.set1d06_ 1-- 640 Valid 03.10.13 03:31:15 11.10.13 07:04:37 9.36 263.8 / 588.8
E215945_ 081_ I.30.C23H13N5S2.00144379.0.set1d06_ 0-- 640 Valid 03.10.13 03:24:15 04.10.13 05:46:18 12.00 210.9 / 135.9

Or do I interpret this table wrong?

Re: Strange points calculation

Because they indeed worked on the same WU, but delivered different results in different runtimes and claimed different credits.
The result with the shorter run time must have calculated all 16 jobs, where the other result was cut off by the 12 hours runtime and maybe only did a few jobs out of the 16.

Re: Strange points calculation

Ah, I see. Yes, mine result is the second one. Yes, now I notice that it was cut off after 12 hours. Thank you!
