I've got work units "wu_sf6_DS-7x8_Grp11032of20480_0" (and others) as well as "wu_sf6_DS-9x7_Grp5785of6144_0", but on the batch status page for Search 6 M=7 starts with N=9 and up, no N=8 and M=9 starts at N=9, no N=7 (or N=8). Is the batch status page just missing some rows?

Also, how do we decide which WUs to work on next? Why not sf5 DS14x11?

Good questions.

Regarding the missing entries... that was done on purpose, for no other reason than I thought the table was getting a little too big. We have been burning over 80k WUs per day, so I left out batches that I deemed were too small to be worthy. Even a case like 7x8 at 20k, was completely sent out within 5 hours and over 90% have already been returned. If you guys really want to see them I can add them to the table, its not that difficult.

For your second question... I have been doing the lower tiers of subfield 6 so that I could get some timing information for use in generating the upper tiers (i.e. to tell me how many WUs are needed). In the next couple weeks the plan is to return to subfield 5 (and DS14x11). After that, the goal is to completely close out subfield 5, which could take the better part of the year. Hopefully by then we have the GPU app working which will allow us to finally finish subfields 3 and 4.

I created a 2 dimensional representation of the batches. It can be reached via a link at the top of the batch status page or here.

This will allow the user to see every batch, including the very small ones, without cluttering up the standard tables. This representation doesn't allow for all the details like #WUs left and ETA, but then again that can be found in the standard tables (at least for the larger batches). So I think this is a good compromise.

Let me know if there are any questions.
