This is silliness. I put my two 5870s on this in the AM today. So far I've finished 9 work units for 553K.

Nope. My dual 5870 still takes 1-2 hours to run a task. Credits are ranging from 400 to 58,000 each. So I think I will continue to let that project under-utalize my GPUs for now.

All of my tasks are taking around 1 to 1.5 hours. The first nine averaged about ~8 credits per second per GPU. The latest one averaged ~1 credit per second, per GPU, which is half the credits I get off Milkyway. Milkyway gives me ~2 credits per second, per GPU. I'll let it run a little while longer and see what the real credits are, but if it's like the last wu, then it's back to Milkyway.

Amd 570 slowed down, did one in a little over 97 mins for 18k credits. Oc'd to 880 done in 47 mins for 8500 credits. Maybe just random chance but hard not notice that credits seem to be tied to card per wu rather than wu's done(twice as fast card got half the credits).
Considering a slowed down 570 was drawing 165watts-100w(system usage when idle)=65 watts and an OC'd card 280w-100w=180w give the same credits(albeit at twice the rate)...somethings not right.
I'll run these later tonight and see if this was just a weird coincidence.
Remember, this project uses the new credit method that DA implemented. It is adaptive. So it will be constantly adjusting the credits awarded. Theoretically, the variations will be large at first, smoothing out over time. In the real world? No idea yet, as this is one of the first projects to use it.
Add to that mess, the admin is also tweaking the formula manually.
