Since the restart of SCC I have dedicated my 5 processors to the project (I had them focused on FAH). After working off my backload of FAH, I have noticed that my processing/day is a very steady 15 D/Day and my Bonic RAC is a very steady 7665 +/- 10points. When I was crunching only FAH I had variable 15+/- 0.7 D/Day and my Bonic RAC was 8000 +/- 250.
----------------------------------------What could be some of the reasons for this behavior?   |

The FAH project has two different types of work units. Hi-Point short ones and low-point long ones. They come in large contiguous batches of several hundred thousand each. So if you're crunching only FAH your points total and results returned over each one day period can be highly variable. The SCC project however has workunits that are very consistent in point value and runtime.

Thank Deltavee (aka Acceleration) That makes sense. After getting Sapphires on the remaining available badges I will switch to all projects for a more "average" performance. What other projects have this "Disparity" of low/long, high/short? Is this intentional, or just something that happens?
