I noticed today that I could not get anything other than a1 units on my 8-core machine. These units cannot use more than 4 cores,so they completely squander my resources! The only way to get any kind of decent performance would be to run 4 of these in parallel. Given all the 0x12 misery and the fact...

I never disconnect the network, it's on 24/7. The WU's had not expired and were accepted when uploaded. Surely the server would reject the results if they were corrupt. I ran lots of a1 units in the past on the same machine. I never got error 0x12 in the past, now I get it on pretty much every a1 un...

After posting this I noticed that this is the same WU I already got earlier. On the previous occasion I used qfix to fix the queue and upload the WU after the failure. Fah6 claimed that it was sent successfully, but I am not seeing any credit for this unit. Also, I am still getting this unit back, s...

It ran continuously both times. There were no interruptions of any sort.

I think this one too

This WU doesn't seem OK, maybe a runaway WU? This WU was essentially running on a single core and took an extremely long time per frame (103 minutes per frame, 18 would be normal). Also the download size seemed unusually small (1.5 MB).

I encountered this problem using fah6 Linux client version 6.24beta.
