MOO Wrapper Happy Holidays!

[RSS]

Santa came by and demanded that I do something about recent credit levels. I obviously said no since we are already granting such high levels to begin with but he wouldn't take no for an answer. Now there's some Santa Magic in effect that makes our validator grant double credits for everybody! I'm so sorry about this and I'll fix it as soon as I have time to figure out what Santa did. :( In other news, base credit is now 9 per stat units (the last number in wu name) and fragmented work will get a 20% bump in compensation. A fragmented work is one that has more than twice the normal amount of packets in it (the second to last number in wu name). Both of these conditions are in effect for now but I might adjust values after seeing how things progress.

Wow, so there really is a Santa Clause....

Merry Xmas everyone!

Oh and the credit increase here is about 2.5x normal.

It went from about 6500 to 16500 per wu !!!!

Love it! This kind of thing, that volunteers really appreciate, and DA really hates. It's not "equal" after all.

Get um while they are SMOKIN hot.

This is the kind of thing we need an email blast on. Just now moved to Moo, as I only just now noticed this thread!

Is anyone else starting to see a consistent, albeit sight decrease in credits/wu? Mine are coming in at the low 13000's. Had been in the 16's, 15's and some 14's. Not complaining, just an observation.

also, no colatz or MW... so what should i use for backup?

Your only current choices for AMD are Moo!, Collatz, MW and Primegrid.

I think the issue with the bench-marking and core changing is that it's not guaranteed to give you a performance increase. It's just an option to try. I can't say that I've personally seen an improvement or not, but others have, so good for them. I'll just keep plodding along slowly with my [mm] goals. I was going to give Moo! a long break to work on MW and Collatz, but I couldn't pass up the holiday credits.
