I can't seem to get more than one cpu to do any work with the alpha rc5 client... I manually set the cpu's to 8 in the config, but only one cpu is active.
The log file does say "starting 8 crunchers" or something like that ... any ideas (other than running 8 seperate processes)
Also, I hear alphas don't do well with rc5...would OGR be better?

NO! OGR wouldn't be better... patience -
It is fairly lengthy process for 2 procs to synch - 8 is longer... all is well.. :)

Does Dnet evan have an OGR capible Alpha client. I'm only aware of 1 OGR core existing, and it's for IA-32 based CPUs.
