I don't have an answer but I can add that there have been times in the past when I have had one worker on a 2 or 4 core system get all the work unassigned and then immediately new work assigned. IIRC...When I reported to George (a couple years ago) he suspected that for a very brief moment during server communication that either the PC reported a very low Mhz or the Server interpreted it as such and determined there was too much work for the UnreserveDays setting.

I can't say if this will work for sure but I would suggest setting your UnreserveDays higher....I often will use 200 days or more.

Now that there have been a few where might I see the results?

CPUs are trusted - not user accounts. I hacked the get-assignment code to trust your spider's CPU.

Coolness. Thanks a lot George!!!

And, just for clarity, does that cover both the LL "CPU" (CID: "ll_work", CGUID: "29ea6276de4907906baa2f15ec0xxxx") and the DC (CID: "dd_work", CGUID: "736c310ec061628e49aee96bae82xxxx")?

I guess this will work for TF and P-1, but DC and LL will be left out if GPUto72 need to do the assignment shuffle (release with known account, re grab with ANONYMOUS account) since the second account is ANONYMOUS?

Edit: Not fast enough on the post button! :-)

25977901 was finished this morning with CUDALucas.

The exponent wasn't obviously prime.

The residue was different from the previous run

The exponent is still hanging on my assignment page.

Check your "Completed" page....

Which is not a problem -- it simply means that the system will do the appropriate level of TF / P-1'ing, and then return them to PrimeNet to assigned to "preferred" workers.

Workers' Progress and Overall System Progress, plus individuals' "Completed" report.

Obviously the Overall report needs to be reworked to show the number of attempts for DC (and, soon LL). The DC row was simply put there to show that the system is picking them up.

The Overall report needs some TLC anyway, in order to show the number of LL runs (and the associated GHz Days) saved because of the TF and P-1 work which found factors.

Please note that I'm still "training my spider" ("Fetch boy, fetch. Sit. Shake paw. Good boy..."), so the completed DCs are not yet picked up "real time". But they will be soon....

Please trust me: I have very thick skin. I take no offence from requests for promised features.

Quite to the contrary in fact; I appreciate the eagerness and all the participation.
