Different processors can come up with slightly different results for each step in a long calculation. If you allow processors of different types to crunch the same work unit, then you will have to write some fuzziness into your validator.

It is based on custom validator on wiki, it compares three numbers with decimal point and check structure before it. It works fine but after some time (two - four days) it will start to mark all results as inconclusive. If I test it on only a few WUs it works exactly as I want but when there are many results then it starts after few days mark everything as invalid. Does anyone know what could cause the problem? I attached source code of the validator.
