I have reconnected a few of my computers back to receive n-body units. I was hoping to have them back working like in the past for one WU per multiple cores. I have received about 3 WU per computer but each WU is running per single core not multiple cores like in the past. I know that when you have a WU with 20 to 30 HRS on it and it finishes in 3 to 10 minutes on a multi-core CPU computer.

For now each WU will finish in about 10 to 12 hours if I am lucky.

My plan is to dedicate one computer to work on N-body units like they were before, but now I have to think about something else till any other bugs get worked out.

The computers I am testing range from AMD-64 to Intel - 32 and 64. Still all are n-body 1.04 versions and all are running one WU per core. All are -mt machines.

Good luck to all everyone. I will read some more to find out any other news about the project.
