Are they crunching too?

Not unless there are computers in heaven.

It's ok

March was a busy month for us. We hit new highs in production and passed some large milestones along the way. And of course, we were powered by many individuals who also got their fair share of milestones. So congratulations to all for our 30,000,000 Boinc points and 600 CPU Years milestones. That's a lot of time and effort from a lot of people. Great job, everybody! Now, let's look at the impressive output from March:

                   March 2008          February 2009           March 2009
Run Time     16y 284d 5h 42m 12s    19y 127d 1h 13m 1s    22y 91d 18h 43m 19s
Points                 8,449,191            12,830,392             14,433,761
Results                   16,424                21,727                 27,203

As you can see, vast improvements across the board. And let's not forget that Feb '09 was already impressive! In fact, that 14.4 Million is our highest output for a single month of all time! It beats even the Base Camp aided August 2007 record by over 1,000,000 points - that's how good it is. Think about this. Since November of 2004, we have had 11 days where our output topped 500,000 in a day. 5 of those 11 days came this past March! (In case you haven't caught on, March was an outstanding month and you should pat yourself on the back. )

If you're reluctant to pat yourself on the back, maybe you're one of the 88 individual milestones from March and will get a little extra recognition. Obviously I can't list them all, but huge congrats go to drick78 who passed 2,000,000 Boinc points! Also, jal2 joined the 7 digit club with 1,000,000 ! The most popular milestone this month was 60,000, as 7 people broke that. Interestingly, the big milestones were next in line; 6 people each broke the 100,000 and 200,000 barriers, while 5 people broke the 500,000 mark! Great job all!

Happy Easter!

Hope Diana G. is ok.
