Is there a way for seti and RC5 to coexist nicely?

Hi all, I have got Seti and Rc5 running, on a Athlon 600 w/ 256meg on Windows 200 Pro. Now seti is fine and all taking ~10 hours per work unit. However RC5 runs slow as crap.

Damn thats slow. is there anyway to make it go a little faster without getting rid of the seti client.
Thanks Schola
 
The best way to get tehm to co-exist is to run SETI as a screensaver. When you use your computer, RC5 will get all the free cycles. When the computer is idle, SETI will get almost all the cycles.

That's the way I run my computer at work.
