Six days ago, I attached this CPDN project to the BOINC (v6.4.5) I\'ve had running for some time with three other projects: World Community Grid, MalariaControl.net, and Rosetta@home. This on an Intel Pentium dual core system running Ubuntu 9.10.

Under the BOINC Statistics tab -- viewing Host Average/ All Projects, so that I get an overview of comparative credits output of the projects I\'m running -- the new CPDN shows a huge, nearly straight-line catapult over the other projects. This in just six days of work/reporting.

All four of my active projects are set to share equally in computer resources -- 25% each. The other three projects have leveled off to average daily credit of 160-200, and their credits have not appreciably decreased in the past 6 reporting days. But CPDN has catapulted to almost 400! And the \"average\" keeps vaulting higher!

(At the same time, I installed CPDN on a Windows machine I have, and the average reported credits there are much more gradually increasing, as I\'ve seen happen when I\'ve added other projects all along.)

How do you explain this anomaly on the Ubuntu machine? Is CPDN that much more productive on this platform? Or is there a flaw in its credit reporting? Wow! Please explain.

That would be the anomaly caused by running hadam3p models.
There is a thread here about it.

You\'ve just caught the tail end of the final run for those models.
They\'ve now all been sent out, and there\'s no plans for more of them.

Known anomaly. HadAM3P shows inflated RAC but gives proper credit.
