Hi Jay,

Your forum is broken in that it is not updating when posts get added to some threads. See here for an example https://team.dodoathome.com/dodo/forum_thread.php?id=4

Speaking of broken things, your coding guy needs to address these issues:

1) Work units that can be suspended and then complete upon resumption and be marked valid and given credit.

2) Work units that run to completion but have very little CPU time, so aren't doing very much, get marked as valid and given credit.

3) Work units get aborted due to Exceeded time limit because the rsc_fpops_bound value is too low. It was originally set to twice rsc_fpops_est, I'd suggest adding another 0 after the 1 in the rsc_fpops_bound value to make it twenty times rsc_fpops_est and see if that fixes it.

So we need work units that can run to completion and only those that have done valid work (presumably using the CPU fully) to get marked as valid and get credit.
I would suggest limiting the amount of work that is sent out until you have got this all right.

Are you collaborating with them or in competition ?
As a private company if you succeed do you plan on sharing the knowledge for the good of humanity, what's left of it, or selling living dodos to billionaires with more money than decency ?

All those issues were already brought up. No need for another thread.

Hi Jay,

It has been over a week since I posted this and I woudn't have thought you would need the coding guy to answer the questions, can you ?
