Hello,
My v7 client running on windows reports 79 000 ppd and my Ubuntu server, FAHMon reports 150 000 ppd (4x AMD Opteron 8423, 6 cores @ 2,0 GHz). In reality I'm getting ~ 40 000 ppd on a good day. I'm using passkey.
What's wrong?
Not getting QRB?

Re: Not getting QRB?
Welcome to the forum, intervet.
I'm assuming this is you, in which case that answers the usual first question of whether you've completed the 10 WUs necessary to become bonus-eligible. I'm also guessing that you aren't failing many WUs, though you might want to check the log files just in case.
Posting the log files here in code tags would help.
You did request the passkey from here and have it emailed to you, correct? I've seen a few people think that they can enter anything they want there.
While it's unlikely that you would have made this mistake twice, have you double-checked that the passkey is entered correctly?
Also, what are you running on your Windows machine?

Re: Not getting QRB?
Can't tell for there is not enough information. Have you qualified your passkey? Are your WU's failing (no bonus for failed WU's). If you PM a moderator with your passkey and your folding username they can examine the stat server to see if your passkey has gone under the 80% minimum success rate. If you supply Project (run, gen, clone) then a moderator can look to see if you got QRB bonus for that WU.
It is possible that one or more clients have typos in your username/team/passkey so that when you search the stat server not all your points are attributed to what you think of as you.
Then there are issues relating to FAHMON's short term estimates (3 frames) as opposed to how long the WU actually took to complete. Things like pausing the client/slot, or an outside application using a single core for an extended period can run havoc between estimated vs. actual time for SMP/bigadv. Also, v7 can be significantly off in its estimates.
My point is that there are lots of potential problems and we need more info to identify which are yours.

Re: Not getting QRB?
Problem solved! I deleted some projects when experementing. Just changed the passkey and now I'm getting my QRB. 

Re: Not getting QRB?
It looks like you dumped 36 WUs. That's quite a few.intervet wrote:Problem solved! I deleted some projects when experementing.

Re: Not getting QRB?
You should never experiment on live work units nor delete them. It hurts the progress of the project!
