Hello,

I always noticed a slight discrepancy in what is listed on my account page as Total Credit and what is listed in Credits. Lately, however, the discrepancy is over 5k different. I am too new to have run any of the older projects, all are only Enigma.

If anyone could explain the difference, I would appreciate it.

If by 'listed in Credits' you mean your account page, then it's nothing to worry about. It's updated by assimilator and at this moment it's nearly 100k workunits behind.

It's also possible that the value in profile will be permanently lower than the one in global stats. That's because every now and then the result may be rejected by the second validation stage even though it was already validated earlier. Usually it only happens on hosts which have hardware problems or are running broken apps.

EDIT: I've just noticed it's also possible to have more credits listed in profile, which is weird, maybe I'll do a resync.
