Validation isn't used in cpdn or cpdn Beta. The output is a default part of the boinc server software and has been customized to be removed from the server status text here. It hasn't been customized at the beta site. Credits here are based on trickles returned instead of "validated" results. Unfortunately, trickles haven't been working on the beta site for a couple years? So no beta credits during that time. The admins know about it but it hasn't been raised to the priority level of actually fixing it. |

Did I waste 385 hours of computing time not to receive credit for my task that was successfully returned 24+ hours ago?

If your main reason for running CPDN is to pump up your credit score then yes. You are never going to get the credits earned at the beta site. If your main reason is advancing climate science then no you didn�t waste your time. |
