This has morphed into a mostly GPU project anyway. Incorrect. The Nbody app does completely different research. The statement wasn't about research differences, rather the project wide payload done by gpu vs cpu. You stand corrected. Assuming this is showing the difference between cpu's and gpu's, cpu's are NOT dead yet: Average floating point operations per second 1,330,142.2 GigaFLOPS / 1,330.142 TeraFLOPS yes this is just for MilkyWay at BoincStats I was surprised to see my Ryzen 9 3900XT isn't that far behind my GPUs. And as Tom and I talked about in another thread that could very well be a part of the problem ID: 73655 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Sorry it was alan and I NOT Tom and I!! We were talking about how the faster cpu's and gpu could be a part of the problem with all the required connections to the Server happening more and more often the faster and faster pc's and gpu's go. When the Server software was originally written they had no clue we would be talking 5ghz pc's within the next couple of months as STOCK cpu's!! And 20+gb of ram ONBAORD a gpu wasn't even a twinkle in Santa's eye!! ID: 73669 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

When the Server software was originally written they had no clue They still have no clue. About anything. It can't be that hard to fix....
