This was pointed out to me today. Looking at the #3 user in Primegrid -
Puzzle Peter he appeared to do 320,000 credits on June 30th, but his subproject stats from the proj_work xml do not even add up to that never mind the 25 million total score.

Can anyone explain?

You'll find many users with that "anomaly". The former subprojects (RSA, primegen) and the non-BOINC subprojects (PRPNet, manual sieving) don't show up in those stats, but credit was/is granted for that work, too.

And Puzzle-Peter is *BIG* *HERO* on the manual sieve!

A useful enhancement would possibly be for a new subproject stat item titled 'Manual Credit' to show this. I don't know how hard this would be - only Rytis could answer that.

I guess I'm the one where it's most obvious that the stats don't add up. Having 4 cores crunching online (sometimes) and ~100 cores doing offline work must result in weird stats as long as the manual work only shows up in total credit.

Please have a look at e.g. the Twin Prime Sieving to get an idea where my credit comes from.

Never mind my RAC though. It's much higher than the best daily output I've ever had. The RAC formula is designed for a steady flow of credits, not for one big chunk per day as you get for manual work.

BTW: There's a lot of sieving to be done and any help is greatly appreciated ;)

Regards, Peter
