Aha, fair dinkum, and it's all good on ya, mate.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll just stay the course.

Please forgive the off-topic post, but creating a proper thread for this topic is currently not possible.

wah2 8.12 on MacOS X -- is it safe?

The reason I ask is that I have not seen these WUs listed as available for MacOS X, and after over 72 hours they have not sent a trickle-up message.

These are the 3 WUs currently in progress on my machine:

wah2_eu25_94cv_204712_13_399_010544869_1
wah2_eu25_8dmj_209212_13_402_010562121_0
wah2_eu25_0ary_207412_13_400_010546428_1

Someone please let me know that these are legit. If another machine could process these WUs better than mine, then I would prefer to release (abort) them.

Mac OS X !0.9.5
BOINC Manager 7.6.22

Thanks for the feedback.

I was confident that the crunching is still effective but not sure whether the repeated network traffic might hamper the recovery process.

I note that my BOINCManager showed a ginormous leap in credit today, although it is not reflected in the public accumulators. I hope this is a good sign of progress in getting this all sorted.

Recent events have motivated the creation of this thread. I hope it will become a topic for constructive advice. It is motivated by the desire to run CPDN most effectively, and not necessarily most competitively.

Currently, my concern is that without "point accumulation" and "trickle-up" metrics, I might be wasting my time, electricity consumption, and overall usefulness to this project. I suspect that many other clients have suspended acceptance of new tasks for the same reason: they have no way of measuring how many tasks (WU) they can handle responsibly.

Some announcements concerning which parts of the CPDN project are functional would be helpful.

For example, despite the lack of external reporting, are incremental "trickle-up" messages of any value, and are completed tasks correctly reported at this time?

Do repeated trickle-up messages impair the recovery process?

Would an option to disable trickle-up messages facilitate the recovery process?
