Cancer, always have the visual version minimized, and turn off the screen saver. The graph takes aproximatly 60% of your cpu just to draw... So leave it minimized and set your screen saver to off or a blank screen.

Hiya,

anyone noticed the group "Two 4 You - mobiles Discoservice" in the top list of all groups at rank #63?

They are only three members but crunched 25996 WU's in two days according to Ees' stats.
*computer on* ... calculate ... wow, approx. 9 WU's per minute ???

forget about "Two 4 You - mobiles Discoservice" weve just been bumped down to #29 by "Eccentrica Gallumbits".
She must have given up her day (erm sorry night) job to be able to produce 20000 units a day.
Definatly the best bang since the big one!!

How are jumps like that possible? I thought you couldn't transfer credits anymore...

Grumble, grumble, d@mn boy wonder, grumble.

AnandTech's now a 1000 WU ahead of us. It was close for a while.

I couldn't help but notice "Eccentrica Gallumbits." How do seven people process 20,000+ WU's in 24 hours? And that appeared to be an off day. The day before, they uploaded 25,000+!

Sheesh!

1000 WU ahead of us for AnandTech? Looks like only a little over 500 when I checked.
Still, they sure did have a big jump over the last two days.

Any other network admins out there? I am very interested in a "wrapper" for the seti command line client to run it as an NT service, preferably only when no one is logged into the machine.

Well, both "Two 4 You" and "Eccentrica Gallumbits" have crawled back wherever they came from.

Two 4 You had a member called "Are we a cheating company or what?" and Gallumbits had one called "Are We CHEATING? U-BET!!"; I guess they both re-processed a bunch of "30 second units" or something.

Regarding the wrapper script: I'm not into NT, but if someone's interested in a Unix-version of that, I can post the perl-script that I use on my Linux-boxes.
