Why do big adv A3 units take so long?

Post by vbironchef »

Whenever I get a A3 work unit it takes almost a hour per %. A2 work units take much less time per %. I don't get it. Any reason why?

Can't seem to get any big-adv WU anymore? Is anyone getting big-adv WU's? Have they stopped?

bigadv has been temporarily turned off for linux due to problems with the linux A3 core on bigadv work units
bigadv has been enabled for windows. Depending on the work unit availability, machines requesting bigadv may roll over to normal -advmethods.
