This is curious. Did I do something to merit this short-lived high? Generally program working fine (it\'s my Einstein that\'s out of whack!) and that\'s the way I like it... but to get chopped down to 1 credit; that hurts. ;-)

I'm using "average trickle date" for a result to do the BOINC "exponential decay" calc that is used for Recent Avg Credit; I guess since trickles are far apart (once every few days) that makes for a low RAC!

I think I'm supposed to "reply" this way... and whatever it takes to list RAC is OK but I was just curious why, for example, on June 20 I had 32.47 RAC with 4631.35 hours and then now, after another 800-900 hours I only have 1.68 RAC. Of course I'm aware that whole figure jumped to 4233 +/- RAC (an obvious error of some sort) for a week or so. It was nice while it lasted. I don't really know how to make any adjustments to how my CPU does the "trickles" since CP runs 30% of 24/7. But, hey, no complaints... just curiousity.
