Latest workunits are much smaller & quicker - what's the reason behind this?

Let's see if I can get to 100k credit before we get to 100k mined programs.

Ty Christian, didn't mean to sound so final, I will continue to retry once current cache of other workload drains (likely Thursday now).

We had some glitches, but they should be fixed now. We show only the highest.

Ty Christian, looks nice.

I made a "50 pack" of 300x300 pixel images related to the Loda logo to use as badges.
If someone wants to pick some of these & edit the colours or add labels (10K, 100K, etc)
please do so. Here is a link to the 50 images:

None of these load for me, they all show corrupted in Firefox.

Also do you expect badges to be 300x300?!?!?!?

Christian you need checkpoints. Otherwise people are wasting their time & money.

Not worried about time to complete, I'm worried about reliability.

Now they are all erroring e.g https://boinc.loda-lang.org/loda/workunit.php?wuid=221607:

<core_client_version>7.14.2</core_client_version>
<![CDATA[

]]>

I also now have 4 invalids https://boinc.loda-lang.org/loda/results.php?userid=324&offset=0&show_names=0&state=5&appid=.

Please fix your software.

Going back to another project for a bit.

It is a waste if they do not yield credit.

There appears to be a correlation between tasks that error & the following line in the logs, e.g https://boinc.loda-lang.org/loda/result.php?resultid=383068:

wu_1653998999_63537_0_r1321396674_0

Unit https://boinc.loda-lang.org/loda/result.php?resultid=357672 is stuck at 2.7% after currently 2 hours - other units at this time are approaching 50%!

Within the wu_1653460825_20320_1_r591179086_0 file is:

2022-06-04 18:23:17|ALERT|Faster program for A114889: a(1)=1 and, for n>1, a(n) is the smallest integer greater than a(n-1) such that a(n)+a(i) is not a power of 3, for i=1,..., n-1. Terms: 1,3,4,7,9,10,11,12,13,19. Submitted by DaveW

3 hours of coretime wasted. With the cost of electricity these days this is not an incalculable amount.

Is this a bug? Is it abutting against computational limits/address-space? Have had enough successful units so far

I had one like that:

https://boinc.loda-lang.org/loda/result.php?resultid=344390

Not only is CPU time 0 it's actually blank. Could it be it's actually existing but just not reported due to a syntax bug?
