Here's a new one. I have two WU's that are being or going to be processed in the next 4-7 hrs that even though BOINC shows them as task;

they are not listed as tasks under the rig they are being processed on 16824. I will be watching close to see if they become registered and if credit is received.

Anyone else have this problem?

Update:

Both these WU's processed but there is no record of them in my task list and I received no credit. Both these WU's were 3232 credit WU's and a complete waste of 5 hrs of processing. If this is happening to me how many other people is it happening to?

Next time I catch this these unregistered WU's they WILL BE ABORTED!

Oh yes they are!....Oh no they are not!....They are further down your list of tasks - they are re-sends so their short task id (numbers only) is numerically lower than ones issued for the first time today. You've got your credit - panic ye not!

Crisis averted. I only went back 40 WU's to check. Didn't think they were that old.

For WU's that must be completed in 4 days those ones took 11 days with no ill effect to the project. So why can't the amount of time required to complete a WU be raised to 6 or 8 days and let slower GPU process WU?
