That's ok clean energy, I dropped by my buddy at the computer store and he had an old DDR2 2 gig stick laying around he gave me. it's in the lapptop now and as soon as the few einsteins that are on it are done it'll be solo running CEP2.

@Ascholten: Awesome - that's the spirit

We just passed the 2.5 billion generated points mark.

I hate to burst your bubble, but dinosaurs walked the earth about 4 orders of magnitude ago. I applaud your enthusiasm, but that would tens of millions of years. A laudable goal, but definitely not realistic.

We had another problem with one of our servers this morning. We just got word from the Harvard Research Computing Department (which hosts our servers) that one of their 'datamovers' that export filesystems across the RC infrastructure had failed and that their backup did not kick in as intended. This caused a bunch problems throughout their equipment, including one of our servers. It should be an isolated occurrence, but they are investigating why the effects were so pervasive.
The good news is that the interruption was hence due to 'higher powers' and not caused by CEP equipment failure - even though that may not be a consolation to some users.
Things had been running very smoothly since our previous blip when Ms Piggy approached capacity, so it's a shame that this streak was broken. But we are optimistic that we are back to normal now.
