There is a whole thread about the 20 granted credits, I think you are getting 20 credits as the unit was deemed 'bad'. https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=6183 Even though yours took longer it still seems to apply. One thing you might try is to upgrade Boinc to the latest 'release' version, you are a long ways behind right now. The recommended version for Windows is 7.0.64 now, and for Linux it is 7.0.65. I am NOT saying it will fix the problems, but it can't hurt. ID: 75703 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I have not updated BOINC because I do not like some of the "features" in the more recent versions. The BOINC version should not affect the applications anyway.

Yes and no, as more 'features' as you call them are implemented more and more projects will modify their programming to make use of the parts that benefit them, the part we see is only a small part of the whole. But in general the version should not make a huge difference, such as the one you saw. It does look like you are back to normal for your credits, so maybe the unit was just a faulty one.
