-jimYesterday's credit spike was primarily due to retroactive application of the higher credit grant policy. Also, as Santa pointed out many credit allocations were fixed to better reflect the over-all credit granting policy resulting in additional credit granted.
As for the credit/hour issue, thanks all for your valuable input. Rob's project comparison data is very good. And andcrs2 raises a good point as well, that NHAH WUs are not exactly low impact in terms of CPU use (although I believe the new BOINC Manager has some CPU throttling functionality) and they can take several hours to complete with infrequent checkpointing - currently they are not a "walk in the park", although we're working to resolve those issues and get out of the beta software phase.
We realize you want to compete on "level ground" and will adjust things to get there as best we can.
