HI,
I think it is more the following situatiuon:
95+% done, connecting to prime.net -> GET NEW WORK !! -> start with new
work !
After 5-7% the old workfile gets it's active flag back and will be
completed.
This situation is really b*llsh*t, imagine the new number is very high,
it tooks 1 week to complete the 7% mark and complete the old nonprime.
