I kinda felt like posting this just because. About 50 or so of my WU's were done on this really old P233 MMX clunker we had. A few were done on my 1GHz Tbird, but I never got back to it till I got bored a few days ago.
So after looking at F@H benchmarks and determining the computer speed hit to be less than 1%, I installed the graphical 3.08, decided to keep my 1700+ at 2600+, and found my WU time to be about 4 hrs. After doing some optimizing, I got 3.03 on the CLI (which I didn't like at first since the command prompt was in the way till I found the driver). I setup a setiqueue and got the CLI (now my avg WU time is about 2 1/2 hrs) on the other 2 PCs, and then I got crunching.
Now I got stat fever, and I want to keep climbing the ladder 🙂
BTW, SETI also gives me an excuse to keep my 1700+ at 2600+ since at least the CPU cycles are doing stuff and not getting wasted 🙂
