Although I am using and old Pentium II at 400 MHz I have seven pending credits, some recent, some going back to June. Does this mean that somebody is slower? I am running also climateprediction.net.

What a good question, and for what it's worth I'm quite happy with my 400MHz PII 8^)

Anyway, I took a look and I too have a number of really old pending work units. I have one work unit not quite as old as yours from 3rd July still marked as pending; looking at this work unit it seems to have been sent out 6 times over a month period and was successfully processed and returned by 4 different systems--the last one responding 7th August.

So, was the result different from all 4 responding systems? Possibly it was 2 against 2? Has the WU been requeued for additional processing and simply hasn't made it out yet, or was it found to be defective and seti simply gave up on it?

It is curious that some seem to get stuck in a pending state, does anyone know what causes this?
