Shaky Jake, maybe read the Community maintained FAQ, as why PVer is normal for Zero Redundant project distributions, which OET is, and for Quorum 2 distributions, like was already commented by gb09761 in the HST thread I started, is not.

I believe that the minimum is ten successful (valid) WU's before you get quorum of 1 WU's. Every so often you will get _0 with a quorum of 2 as a check. If a machine starts to send back some WU's that are in error or invalid, then a machine can lose their trust status and will get quorum of 2 WU's. One thing I have done with projects where they support quorum of 1, I have a machine download the minimum required and no more. Once they are all valid I can then add that project back in. This maximizes the computing power. If a WU only needs to be computed once, why have it computed twice?

On your iMac, have you checked to see if there are any invalids or errors? You might need to check once a day to see as sometimes they don't stay in the result list for long. If you are returning invalid WU's then you are wasting computing time. I have ran into where two last generation Xserves, one had an issue with AD Vina tasks and the other did not. Not every unit was invalid or an error but it was not a trusted system by WCG and thus I took it off of AD Vina projects; why waste computing power?

Is it normal for work units to take this long for validation?

Still using the same system daily...
