Newer units providing fewer points

My quad AMD has completed newer 'alpha' units vs the older 'trypsin' units. They are taking nearly twice as long to complete for fewer points.

On my two machine it's the same.

It seems that something was done to the credits, I get either 115.5 or 200 for the same type of WU, probably the lower number for the ones generated earlier.

There was a consistent error with the initial flops estimation, the value was later corrected when enough simulations were collected. Now the initial estimation is more accurate and lees discrepancies will be found (still some old workunits will have this wrong estimation)

This is not real good.

So the old ones are still around with the false estimate and I guess it's far too much effort to correct them. No problem for my machine, as even with those the granted credits are above average compared with other projects. The intermediate 200s were far above necessary, the probable newest ones (163 with me) are in the upper ranges of granting.
