Thank you for the explanation.

Two more work units continuing to run with elapsed time and time to go increasing simultaneously. This has been going on too long - it doesn't seem as if Rosetta can manage their system - I quit! there are many more systems that run without problems!


I've got the same issue. First, I had a lot of 3 hour tasks that would take 7+ hours of processor time: Here's a nice example that was granted less than 1/6th the claimed credit:

... but at least it was granted credit!

Since December 1st I believe I have 179 work units with about 20,600 in claimed credits that are still pending. If the work units aren’t even acknowledged, are they being used? I’d hate this much electricity & processing to be wasted on random work that isn’t valued.
