I assume what you think appears strange is the large number of trickles accumulated on a single day? Looking at http://climateapps2.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cpdnboinc/trickle.php?resultid=6604808 it would seem that the PC is only allowed to connect to the internet periodically, so large numbers of trickles are uploaded upon these connections. It seems OK to me. |

Hmm, I began thinking that is was cheating or something... |

Sometimes, if you look at the top computers list, you\'ll see machines that have a huge but short-lived RAC due to uploading trickles in batches. One one occasion, there was a machine that had uploaded all 160 trickles in one go! That\'s slightly risky, because the server might conclude that the model had been abandoned and would then re-issue it for another user to crunch. However, the machine did get its moment of glory. |

AFAIK the only instance of cheating ever to emerge on cpdn was the Wate account earlier this year, though something similar was attempted once or twice before that on Seti. We made the Wate affair public in the hope that crunchers of all projects would be vigilant and question anything they find that appears unusual and not easily explained. So this sort of post by Tasiziso is reasonable and useful. Cpdn news |
