    Viewed by your output the remark about '200-core blade server' wasn't bragging
    By the looks of their output, the Poles have a Jason of their own (called Janusz or so)!

    The server is a power hungry 204 core setup. The electric bill that comes with running it is just as astonishing :P The good side of running it is it saves on running the pellet stove and burning through the wood pellet supply. Unfortunately the electric company has become more expensive again or we could have run some of the other machines to help. At least with switching to a 100 percent wind energy supplier I will also be supporting a large block of Wind Energy this month. With WCG and Einstein running at the same time we just about had the neighborhood transformer glowing brighter then the street light.

    we also fired up a few other machines we had laying around to help take the boinc poland spot. I think they may be banking for a surprise at the end of the race. Its always nice to have more badges

    Dirk you may wanna brace yourself as we should be creating more dust in your area. We have started to deplete our work at Enigma to try and catch some betas at WCG. The amount of work we have cached will probably leave you in the dust cloud with Nflight. Sorry about the dust storm guys

    It's too bad the Beta release for WCG had to coincide with the Enigma race, we might have been able to catch the SBT, but that's what makes it fun.

    Nflight glad we could join the race and help out a bit as it was nice to see the output outside of WCG projects. I really feel bad for those data centers after running this server.

    We still have a few of those running and a few that had errors do to file size exceeding the limits set in the app. The BetaHST work units I only received 4 on one machine and I think dad also received a few of these. We are hoping to see more of these next week or the week after and not to far off a new project launch. If you need to reduce the number of cep2 running at once you can put beta11 in your appconfig and then have boinctasks read the appconfig to avoid losing time on these work units with long checkpoints. It sure didn't help the race with all the cores we lost to beta, but it worked out well for me
