Received this WU earlier this morning, it immediately failed. The client restarted the WU a total of a dozen times over the next 5 hours with the same result. I have dumped the WU and moved on to process a different WU. Here is a portion of the log showing the error:

System this was run on is an iMac, 2.8 GHz i7, OS 10.6.8, SMP 8 using the 7.2.9 client.

I checked the database, there is one other failure report for this WU.

The WU isn't a bad one as it was successfully completed by another donor:

Your WU (P7611 R2 C55 G209) was added to the stats database on 2013-01-31 23:09:13 for 2590.28 points of credit.

However, there were some failures which would indicate that on some systems, it was unstable.
