    Interesting. I took a look at some tasks, and I am seeing mostly the opposite. For example.

    Run time 25,276.24
    CPU time 7,437.88

    Those numbers should be reversed.

    Re: Yafu: new MT app available, and help needed

    I would think an app_info.xml would solve the problem. When my 24 core web server was crunching AQUA, running more than 8 cores on a task was a waste as the cores wouldn't be fully utilized. I let it download some tasks and then used the sched_reply file as a template to create an app_info file. I changed the max and average cpus to be 8 rather than 64 so it would run one WU for every 8 cores. The same thing should work here by using just 1 cpu.

    No, that was a random windows machine from the top machines page. Most (but not all) machines on that list have tasks that are backwards like that.

    FWIW, there is no mac app, so it definitely not a mac thing.

    I figured it probably wasn't, but seemed like the thing to say at the time.

    Ok, so is the credit at this project based on run time or cpu time? It's hard to tell with the numbers i'm getting.

    1st: It is CreditNew, so regardless, credits will appear mostly random.

    2nd: I believe CPU time is what is used for the calculation.

    k thanks. My cpu vs run times are all over for the few mt tasks i've run. The last task I did had a larger cpu time than the run time, but the others did not. So, I have no idea how the tasks times are being recorded.

    I should have stopped at 100k instead of 150k and then I wouldn't feel the need to get my 250k MM.

    Right. This is why I started this thread. The problem goes away with the non-MT app.

    Well, if anyone has the time to create a working app_info file please post it here
