It'll surprise you how quickly they build up with the optimised apps - three times faster on my machines
Optimised A@H is fast. I crack one WU in about 33minutes. So maybe nothing is lost.

Nothing is lost, no. Your bunker drop can be seen in the last table above and will have heads being scratched in the Ukraine

Looking good after the first 15mins. Remember the points showing here are only those earned by the team since the start of the challenge (15:45 UTC)

What about WU with 'validation pending' status? Do they count?
#27 Re: 13/2 - 20/2 Acoustic@Home challenge
Posted: Wed Feb 13, 2019 4:34 pm
by davidbam
No, not until they are validated. The good news is that some of the bunkers we dropped early will validate during the Challenge and will count towards it. Conversely, some WU will not yet be validated at the end of the challenge and hence will not count towards it.
Regardless though, they ALL count towards team totals for Formula Boinc marathon and other stats

A long way to go yet

Pleasantly surprised by my laptop, i7-7820HQ CPU @ 2.90GHz completes a WU only very slightly slower than the Threadripper 2990WX. Pity it only has 8 threads

Unfortunately (for us) none. I was running RakeSearch and hadn't planned on jumping on this one but I got shamed into it
So now I have to pay the pending Troll his fee.

I'm sure you don't mean me but I'll confess anyhow ... I thought I'd grab a bunch of WU in case they ran out. Unfortunately I forgot to stop WCG also downloading WU. It gave me lots of urgent WU which are hogging my threads even though Acoustics has 10x the priority of WCG. You know me ... I'd hate to abort them
