I'm glad to see that I am not the Lone Ranger.
----------------------------------------I have two FightAIDS@Home WU's that look like they will run 30 hours on a C2D 6700. . . glad my P4 didn't pick them up.  |

I've got a long one running as well. Has run 6:52 and says it is 10.9% complete.
I've had a few long WUs before and I do not like them. They never seem to give you anywhere close to what is claimed. So, to me, it seems like a waste. If I catch them early, I usually abort them and move on to what's next. |

Big Mistake! If you look in my graphs you'll see that the credit per hour actually gained

I've got a long one running as well. Has run 6:52 and says it is 10.9% complete. This just isn't adding up. Now it's at 10:56 CPU Time, 17.3% complete, 16:23 to completion. This morning when I reported the stats in the quote above, it said 17:36 to completion. At this rate, this thing will be crunching for days. I checked the other cruncher and they have not returned their WU either. So, I'll hang in there with this thing ... but, if the other one comes back with short hours, I'm dumping this thing. |

Folks,
For those of you that are getting these long running WU's on your Q66 / Q67's are your CPU's Overclocked at all? Just a quesion... so that should I get one of these beasts I'll have an ability to identify it. My Q66 is has a 40% OC to it so instead of running the CPU at 2.4 Ghz I'm gleefully skipping along at 3.4 Ghz. (Yes I can get it higher but at these speeds I'm not had to overvolt anything) and my temps never get above 50 degrees C. TIA. |

Barney,
----------------------------------------From the preceding exchanges in this thread I derive it's the faah50xx types. Grendel90 had one. ciao PS Updated performance graph in this thread indicates 8.85 CPU hours average for yesterday.
