1) Message boards : Number crunching : New Crediting system: questions (Message 22593) Posted 17 Aug 2006 by eplnificant Post: The granted vs. claimed credits is certainly inconsistent with granted being both higher and lower, even on the same PC. I have one that granted 50% more than claimed on one WU, but less than claimed on the other. I'm not even going to try to figure it out; I'll just keep crunching.
2) Message boards : Number crunching : Anyone running Core 2 Duo CPUs ? (Message 22015) Posted 8 Aug 2006 by eplnificant Post: I have a new Dell 620 Laptop that was assigned to me at work, and, of course, I put Rosetta on it; it's current RAC is 451.60 using the Core 2 Duo CPU to run 2 jobs at once.

4) Message boards : Cafe Rosetta : Moderator contact thread archive (Message 20780) Posted 21 Jul 2006 by eplnificant Post: Should I report WU's that cannot be completed? I put Rosetta on my son's gaming PC, but he removed it after completing 4 WU's, with two in process. WU's 24670641 & 24646923
5) Message boards : Number crunching : You are cordially invited to a BBQ PARTY!!!!! (Message 20776) Posted 20 Jul 2006 by eplnificant Post: Damn, I opened this thread hoping to get a bite to eat! Oh well, I've cranked up a bunch of PC's and all are 100% Rosetta; I've got my RAC over 1,100 since starting last month. I was really surprised to see a WU run for 11.5 hours on one PC instead of the usual 2 to 3. It's the slowest computer I could find (It runs a VIA Samuel 2 CPU), and it has not been getting such big WU's since I added it on yesterday.
6) Message boards : Cafe Rosetta : Team or not to Team... (Message 19534) Posted 30 Jun 2006 by eplnificant Post: As I check in and see my stats rising I ask myself if I should join a team. Does anyone know the percentage of people running Rosetta that is on a team/not on a team? I am NOT looking for input about any particular team, as I can find that information on my own. I am just wondering how poplular it is to be on a team, and I would like feedback about any problems people have had (In general, again, not asking about any one team). Thanks for any input.... I just started this month (using two computers), and joined a team (Sci-Fi) after a couple weeks for no particular reason. I can't see that it makes a iota of difference.
