Edit: Moreover, PG can correct any error in the V7, and they may suggest possible improvements. By contrast, the V6 should be closed to changes.

V7 soon will be secure, robust, easy to install and manage... but there are still some limitations to how completely it meets all of those criteria. It's still a work-in-progress with improvements in robustness etc. only partially completed. "Good enough to use" is not "ready to release".

V6 has effectively been closed to changes for some time.

Changes to other aspects of FAH (such as improvements to the FahCores} are occasionally tied to a specific version of the client, but many changes happen asynchronously.

I have many months of using version 7. I have a website to promote FAH, and I recommend the V7. I have taken in hand to newbies, nobody has reported significant problems.

I think the demand for "perfection" to free the V7 is the enemy of donor FAH service. Those who have worked in software development, we know that perfection is not attainable, a good software will always be in a state of refinement.

I agree, v7 is great, and i recommend it on my web too.
But on linux, i had some problems with installing, so I need more time to tune up it
And I am using HFM status generator to HTML, v7 is not supported by hfm. It would be great to implement page generator to v7 final release !! Then no need to use third party sw at all.

Emm, back to my point:
OK it seems that my qualification is not working, so i will try to complete another 10 classical SMP, and will se.
I will let you know here, do not close thread pls

Thanks for tips

CR

So finaly solved (i hope). I am out of QRB, i need to recomplete 80%, and it seems to be 53 WUs
but myslef, because this 16 core rig is going to fold for right user name (I was only tester/builder), real team member for this one is Hedvika.
thanks to all

Do you know how so many WUs got dumped?

Hard to say, I found that error after deleting fah installations (went to linux). And during this I was on business trip.
But I would say too aggressive RAM timings. I am still testing. Dont know

But for me, It is new information, that QRB is not permanent so good to know this.
