What the????

[Maggotry]

Can someone explain this to me?

2 minute wu? No way. What happened?

its quite possible that the WU you had was full of interference on the radio signal, usually from a manmade source.. the seti client will read the WU and if it decides that there is no worthwhile data in the WU it will complete the WU, write the result file and send it straight back.... it doesn't happen very often.. The_one had a work unit of 1 second once.. we both watched in awe as the machine dialed up, got the WU, disconnected, then immeidately dialed up again,.. hehehe

thats probably the likely reason for it..

I had a 21 minute WU the other day on my P3 450 .

Is there a way to see the detail of WUs sent if one doesn't use that OrangeKid proxy, only going directly to Berkeley?

I don't think there is.

The interference is usually caused by satellites (there are a lot of those flying around ).

I just started using OrangeKid's proxy last night. If not for that, I never would have known about that 2 minute wu.

One of the machines I installed it on yesterday (low powered Celeron 266-333, not sure) did one in 1 min 22 sec! :Q

It's pretty funny to see the SetiQueue bar for that machine showing completely red - of course it's taking the next one longer than the last!

Hmmm... the TeAm's production certainly could benefit from more of these two-minute work units.

In another bizarre fluke, I recent returned one of the lowest angle ratios I've ever crunched right before returning one of the largest AR's I've ever crunched. Link. 0.002 followed by 14.266! :Q

A 1 second WU about 1/3rd of the way down the page!

That makes my 2 minute wu look like a CPU hog!
