It's normal. Let it run. It's crazy how they just all of a sudden end.
Should be about 900-1000 worth.

yikes - sorry about the formatting :oops:

On my Macs the progress bar updates every 12.5%.

I can't run them on my PCs as McAfee kicks in and flags as a virus and zaps the exe. :?:

my longest example above was close to 20 hours CPU time - I usually run at 99% CPU on this Mac so that would be 20 hours! - if you do other projects then that will use up CPU time and take longer

... the deadlines are usually a couple of weeks so plenty time!

YoYo can only go back about 30 results or so so I can't check to see if there have been longer units or perhaps I've not been active enough in this project recently to have more results to view ..

Now, you probably could complain about that. :( On the other hand in 100 years (probably less than 40 in my case, if I'm lucky) we'll all be dead, so why bother?

not great, but if you couple it with the previous one you get 61hours ==> 1460credits. That's still an amazing 24credits/hour!!
