How does the ECCp-109 client work?

DroolMAN!

The client that I had running on my Athlon 1.3GHz, which also was my longest running client, was accidently deleted. The thing is does that mean the continuity of the work I have done is lost (I had about 400 billion points computed, BUMMER!)?

In fact, how in the world does the client keep track on what are the points that has already been done? Or are the clients just randomly computing?

Anyway care to shed some light on this?
 
Guess you meant 40 billion. 🙂

This means the waste of your former work for the whole project.
However, your stat shouldn't get affected, just like you add a 2nd computer and stop the previous one.
 
Does that mean that someone, somewhere around the world might just be crunching the same set of numbers? And what happens to the points (not distinguished points) that I have already computed but deleted? Does it mean that the lost work will be recomputed?
 
They stated, as long as they got less than 100,000 users, the chance for 2 or more users cracking same seed was negligible and they did some work on server side to detect and alarm this rare case.
 
RC5,

I meant 400 billion! An Athlon 1.3GHz does about 620K iterations per second and I had it running for around 8 days. That is why I feel so funky right now 😛
