With the total work equalling 100 percent, is there a rough estimate on how many percentage points correlate to one milestone used for trickling?

Thanks, that's interesting to know.

[Off top of head], the long, with -ls_ in the name, having done 10 trickles is 2.5% of the whole series, the shorter with 10 trickles done is 3.33%. The series dependency is the driving reason for the short deadline [and that's long compared to some other projects with concatinations]... each full result is the base for generating the next 10 trickle blocks.
A long result sample, 400 10K steps long aka 400 trickles **: FAH2_avx38788-ls_000047_0008_003_0 ** subject to change without notice... per uplinger the future has changes anticipated as to how much the scientists want to compute. |

Can you tell from the name how far in the chain of the 30 or 40 (ls) work units you are?
E.g. in your example (FAH2_avx38788-ls_000047_0008_003_0), does maybe 0008 or 003 specify that? |

Yes you can... uplinger explains it somewhere about the latter portion [and he hardly posts, so it's easy to find in the FAH2 forum ;]

For those too lazy to look it up, apparently it's the "003" part in this example.

Out of interest would 00 12 indicate starting at step 120? FAH2_avx17379-ls_000052_0012_013
