I see that one of the workunits I've finished has now been completed by a total of three systems. But I haven't been given any credit yet.

So I'm wondering how often the process that updates "granted credit" is run.

It's called the Validator. It runs on the server all the time, but there seems to be a bug in it. I've had at least one unit with similar 'problems', no error messages etc. I've been waiting for 24 hours. I now got the credits for it.

(And another one waiting with similar 'problems' ;))

But check your stats every 6 hours orso.

Ditto. I too have the same problem. I now have around 6-8 work units that have been crunched (by 2 other computers with no errors, but no credit granted. All were completed today though, so I suspect the validator, like everything else is a bit overwhelmed at the moment.

Thanks for the explanation. It must be that the Validator is overwhelmed right now. I've finished 18 units and have credit for none so far. We'll see if they get it going over the weekend. :)

There's still the other 2 computers that have to crunch your WUs as well, before a valid credit can be validated. ;)

Worse case scenario can take several weeks.
