> Is this upgrade necessary if the host is not running CPDN?
The bug that is fixed concerns possible loss of work when starting the benchmark (which happens e.g. when you upgrade the client, but also about once a week). In principle it affects all projects, and every time the benchmark is ran gives a possibility for breaking the current project. It turned out that the CPDN app currently is the one most sensitive for this bug, and because of the very long time the CPDN WUs take, it also does the most damage to this project. But sooner or later every project may be affected.
Please upgrade client to 4.15
)
This _should_ in particular fix the lost WU issue with CPDN that occured in certain cases.

David Anderson just announced a new release with another bugfix. Looks like the "stable" branch currently changes more rapidly than the alpha one...
