Hello, i have seen that on the Server-Status-Page in the Database/Filestatus. There are 246999 WUs that wait for validation. What does this mean? Are that the WUs which had not been processed yet. Could it be expectable that i have to wait some days to get my Credits for my Uploads?


Sorry for my english, its not my first language.

ByeBye

@CPDN-Admins: Have a look at "WU-Status" especially the emphasis of HADAM3P WUs!!!!!!

As with a lot of the standard data fields, the validation field on the Server Status page isn't used here for it's original purpose. One of the project people said years ago that the number there was just the total number of models being worked on.

This project doesn't use quorums to check each model against another one. They are all 'stand alone'.
The only delays to getting credits for each trickle that's uploaded, is:
1) The delay before the once-per-day run of the trickle-to-credits program
2) If this program fails for some reason, as it has for the last couple of days. Also, other programs could fail, stopping the creation of the export files used by the external stats sites.
Eventually though, all credits will be created and exported.

The WU-Status on the Server Status page is the number of data sets available for download for each model type.
There are a lot of the 3p models because they're so quick to run, and it's expected that a lot will be crunched in a short period of time.
