The FGRP searh works fine here, approx same crunch time,as Binary Radio Pulsar Search on my GPU,


Great! That's what we are testing here.

Cred payment is to low on this project!!!


This is a test project that may even be used to test crediting, which might or might not work as you expect.

What else can we do other than to write

If you care about credit, this project is certainly not the right one for you.


on the front page (and AFAIK even in the welcome message in external account managers)?

Hi again

I am aware of the cred info, even : Most of the time Albert@Home will have no work to run at all, and when it has, the applcations are experimental, might be unstable, unreliable and may even damage your computer..-)

I ment to say; when having Fix cred payment! why so low ?

You can set it to 0, but then Testing out the project will take ages..

Cred are a ´bonus´ for me while helping out project with testing !
I´ve been participated in several Alpha and Beta testing project, so this is not something new to me


PS Bernd, like your haircut :)

Sadly, thats is how it has become. There are a lot of Boinc project,doing their best to get/keep our "donating" time :)

(cred payment is an important part for some participants, when it comes to choose which project to join/crunch )
