  On this bug need litle explications function embedded
  __compute_runnable_contrib have at beggining on "big" noop by 100

  Looking bellow on contrib is added value but is not used for twice. 
  2715                 /* Efficiently calculate \sum (1..n_period) 1024*y^i */
  2716                 contrib = __compute_runnable_contrib(periods);
  2717                 contrib = cap_scale(contrib, scale_freq);
  2718                 if (weight) {
