About 1000+ computers between 2-3Ghz, about half dual cores running at 80% load and a few test odd machines. Another reason why we switched to BOINC client, it can make use of both cores in a dual core system.

I wondered if the availability of the new HDC work units has any bearing on the increase of WCG crunching? How many, like me, have come back to WCG recently because Cancer Units are what we really want to crunch.

I know that was the draw for me, having lost a parent to that friggin' disease. I don't particularly like BOINC, but as the man said above, it uses both cores so I deal with it. The more I can crunch against Cancer, the better. |
