Members of a team are "Current". I am sure it is not quite realtime, but it is the only thing on the Stat page that seems to update almost instantly. Everything else is batch-processed and put out over Akamai. 1144 members when I checked a minute ago! [Grin]

Just checked their current status
The group now has 1591 members, up from 79 yesterday and growing, by far the biggest team on the World Community Grid It will be interesting to watch how quickly they progress through the ranks to #1 overall Just a bit of speculation If 1500 members running 24/7 average 600 points per day, they will generate 900,000 points per day and will have exceededed IBMs 5.7 million points in the next 5 days Thats assuming they attract no more members If they keep growing at that rate it could be sooner Just something to observe for a bit of fun This is 1 thread to keep your eye on |
