new way of calculating credit?

[freakdiablo]

Ok, on my laptop Im running an optimized client, installed it about a week and a half to two weeks ago, got pretty much the same average credit (60-70 credits average). looked at the host average this morning and its just under 100. I was just wondering because Ive been playing world of warcraft on it alot, and the highest credit Ive ever seen on it was 80, and that was after going away for the weekend and leaving it running. see attached pic.

Less WOW and an optimized client

Your optimized client units are finally being tallied. I saw a similar boost on all my optimizations about a week later.

if it takes a week to tally credits, nevermind then. But I heard that the optimized clients only improve credit a little, usually only like 3-5%, not 25-30%

I'd say my credits jumped near the same range, 25-30%. I was surprised too, the last time it wasn't anywhere near that much ...

well, not 25-30% anymore. now its closer to 100-150%. (60-70 avg originally, now its close to 200 and seems to be leveling off)
