We value the bug reports as without them we wouldn't be able support many CPUs properly. We try to get fixes completed as soon as possible, but it may take some time for changes in source to trickle out in new clients builds. We are also hampered by incomplete information and changes Intel/AMD etc. make without documentation as well as a lack of time from our volunteers. * To complete the fix we absolutely require the complete client outputs generated when run with the -cpuinfo option as well as -bench. These must be from the latest client version, often the pre-release version. * Sometimes the newest version is not available for the platform the reporter is using, as such we may have to wait for information from a newer build. Because we don't have direct access to the hardware, we cannot test the fixes, as such there are sometimes cases were we don't get it right the first time. > > It takes ages to get anything done, then it's trouble because they don't understand a thing (claiming a client is already released that recognizes this CPU when it isn't) and that trouble takes another age. In my humble opinion, don't bother.
