Hello!

I have double trickles for my result 8704 at <a href="http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/trickle.php?resultid=8704">Trickle Inf page</a>.

This was happened when BOINC has finished current trickle and then reported it and then I turned off my computer. After a few hours I started computer and BOINC again reported about this trickle.

Is this a bug?

Thanx for any replies.

trickles aren't on the 144 checkpoint boundary so it's possible to stop a run and get duplicate trickles. It is just a little extra wasted bandwidth (about 100 bytes), but the stats aren't affected as only the maximum trickle information is used (phase/timestep) so it won't really get counted twice except in the trickle table.
