Does FAH count paused GPU's?

My active clients updated from 1 to 2, but I only have 1 gpu folding (and no cpu's). I have another gpu in the same box set to pause-on-start and it has not been doing any work. Is that what caused the count to go up? If not, then I have no idea what did.

If your ISP changes your IP address or if the client.db file in the work directory gets deleted and re-generated, that will cause it to be counted as a new client. Also this might happen if the client was started twice at the same time - like both as a login-in launched application and by double-clicking on FAHClient. I was under the impression that a slot has to return work to be counted.
What does this say?

Oh, OK. I think it may have been because I swapped the two gpu's in their physical slots. The time indices on your link seem to line up with that.

FAH counts active slots, so if leave one paused for some time, it will no longer be counted.
