I just got me some new units and I see that Berkeley still haven't fixed the
X6 problem with the estimated time to completion. The machine in question
(Celeron 600@900) takes less than eight hours per WU but the units are still
showing up as 50 hours in the "To Completion" column, hence it's only
getting one unit at a time. (Cache set for 1 to 2 days on that one).

Another machine *was* holding around 24 units at a time (Different
preferences) but currently only has seven, four with three hours 'TC' and
three with 18 hours TC.

It's been like this a while, you think they'd have it fixed by now. It must
be creating a lot more traffic for the servers as my machines are requesting
units a lot more frequently than they were before.

soon that'll bump up the electricity bill but will double WU throughput).


Hardware is probably at about Levin by now...hopefully no snow on the Desert Road..... ;-)
