here is my user stats I can only see total credits, not per client or per WU:

If you open up your log file, it will tell you how many units have been successfully completed after every completed workunit. The lines you need to look for will look something like this:

[08:29:10] + Results successfully sent
[08:29:10] Thank you for your contribution to Folding@Home.
[08:29:10] + Number of Units Completed: 474

Also, you can use a monitoring program to tell you how many units have been completed. I know for certain that HFM.NET can tell you how many units have been completed and how many have failed.

That's some good tpf, was that when you weren't using the system at all or do you have the 9800s set to default (low or not high). Since i get about 34-35 min tpf due to having both my gtx260s set to high priority and getting more ppd then the default low that the gpu clients auto set them to.

My gx2 was working on and idle computer. The cpu from this rig is not used by any smp clients.

For HFM, It does give you the number of WU made, but only since the last time the software was started. I'll look in the log file for the number of WU and use a bonus calculator to see.

Altough I was more looking for a credit per WU kinda of stats, to see if the bonus was applied. Something like BOINC is able to give.

Not really, you'd have to run another 1920 to see what your total number is as its archived/updated each time you submit a finished work unit. Other then that you'd have to manually calculate out of your total ppd, knowing how much each gpu normally gives you (if any) and then see. Though you have to do 10 1920s within 4 days so if you have just from cpu within 4 days of 19 200 points then you can probably assume you completed the min 10.

nother question, in the Linux FAH VMware my start command is the following :

./FAH6 -SMP 8 -Bigadv -Advmethods

I have read I should not use the Advmethods flag to get Bigadv, true or not ? Someone getting Bigadv with the advmethods flag ? I will try it tonight once I have acces to my rig. But for now, I am still getting some 1920 Credit wu.

don't know if it's what you ask but my command line is like this to have bigadv

./fah6 -bigadv -smp 8

.

Yep it was the question, I'll reboot the Linux FAH and see what it does without the advmethods flag. Thanks !

If you use the -advmethods flag you have a chance of getting one of the 1920 point work units thrown in at some point in time. I also run without it.

Use it without the -advmethods flag. I also run ./fah6 -configonly first to configure the flags for -bigadv -smp 8 so the only time I type in anything other ./fah6 is if I want to add the *-oneunit* flag.
