I searched and didn't see a clear answer.

For example:

I have a PG WU for SGS LLR running right now on 2 cores as you can adjust the amount of threads some of the PG WU's can run.


Is WUProp counting the hours for both cores or just the hours for the work unit itself?


If counting for both, then I will increase my threads on PG.

If counting for just the singular WU, I am sacrificing WUProp hours for PG credit sooner, and clearly it is the one project I am steady on credits.

wuprop counts threads used, even for MT tasks. If you run an MT task with 2 threads for a day, you will get credit for 48 hours.

It's been a long time since I ran any MT wus, but IIRC wuprop sees all cpus/threads on a wu and credits you for all hours on all cpus/threads used. So you shouldn't lose any hours.

Edit: What Z said.

Ok thank you!
