First of all, only have advanced flag, and have been getting a couple of these projects, which appear to be Beta.

No issue with them, but generally I am getting about 35,000 PPD and these group of projects seem to be getting me well over 80,000 PPD. Might be some bench-marking issues here.

Computer specs would help a lot to explain why PPD is so high.
Before projects go public, they are benchmarked with variety of GPUs, and average of suggested Base Credit values is taken and set.

Also snippet of the log file would help as well

Thanks

So 14473 is currently not in beta according to https://apps.foldingathome.org/psummary?visibility=BETA and actually looking back through the history it looks as if this series (14470-14473) were reissued back in July as (14474-14477) viewtopic.php?f=66&t=35698&hilit=14473&start=30#p339671 and then moved server viewtopic.php?f=66&t=35792&p=339999&hilit=14474#p339999 these are showing in the projects summary listing https://apps.foldingathome.org/psummary but not the beta listing so should be at least Advanced if not Public - although there are not announcements I can see on this.

The interesting question is why you have a 14473 at all ... this may be a legacy WU still passing through the system, a WU that needed rerunning for some reason (not sure that even happens) or maybe the project number is being reused for some reason (happens very rarely) ... my guess would be the first but someone may be able to find out.

Please note the OP date - July 10. For whatever reason a client set to Advanced got a WU that should have been Beta. But a month later with the group of projects discontinued and reissued with new project numbers, looking into a cause is both not possible, and moot.
