hey, since i just returned to GPU crunching, ive just noticed ive gettin plenty LONG Wu's like 10-13 hrs (BOINC says so) runtime. Lst time i crunched to my 1,5kk credits ive never had such a long Wu, they always been 4-6hrs. Sometimes i get Wu's of 4-6 hrs but alot of thoose long ones, so im askin if the credits are the same or less for thoose beastly Wu's, whats ur guys experience?

My workunits have typically taken 19 hours lately. I suspect that this is partly because I have a GPU card that is just slower at doing them.

I have noticed that I can get more credits by lowering the amount of workunits to keep in the queue so that BOINC waits until the last workunit is nearly finished before it asks for another one.
