    New project mersenneathome.net

    CAUTION: 5MB upload per core per 20mins

    There is a new project on the web:
    http://mersenneathome.net/

    It has been put up by Sebastian (b0b3r) Bobrecki
    http://mersenneathome.net/show_user.php?userid=1

    As far as I can tell he has a background in Hash decryption and Rainbow Tables

    Dingo has asked in the forum for him to post the group or organisation that it is running for.

    The client apps are for LINUX ONLY at the moment

    The wu's come down with an estimate of 90 minutes
    They complete in about 18 to 20 minutes.
    Points are good
    BUT every WU is uploading over 5MB back to the server

    That is just HUGE and totally unnecessary.

    It just raises other questions.

    It just took me an hour to un-bind my network which was overloaded with 135 MB of uploads and his I/O rate is not great.

    Be cautious if you hook up to this one.
