Design Space Explorer skipping base compile when distributing to other machines

Hi,

I'm having problems running design space explorer when trying to distribute compiles across machines. The results I get returned are blank. And the "best results" and "base results" sections remain "unknown".

When I run the DSE without distributing compilation it works perfectly. With no other change except ticking "Distribute Compilations to Other Machines" the DSE skips the "Exploring Base" step and analyses the revision instead. This is regardless of whether I have already run the DSE locally or not. The distributed compilation also runs much too fast to be working properly. Without distributing each compile takes ~30 mins. With distribution turned on, even the local compiles take less than ~5 mins.

Does anyone see what I'm missing or has anyone come across this?

Thanks for any help!

P.S. Im using QSlave to distribute compilation and searching for best performance, low (seed sweep).
