I build enterprise systems for a living, RAID 5 is dead dudes, espically on a database server, Why you break my heart? I just built my first tiny supercomputer for m@h, quad gpu, socket 2011 six core, another one still to be built in the box(es), the milkyway project just cant feed the gpu's in the system as they take less than a minute to compute a single workunit per gpu core. I'm turning around 4 gpu workunits in 45-55secs, the server just cannot feed the system fast enough. I'm hoping the findings from milkyway@home will eventually lead to a nbody simulation/equation that helps expose/prove the cyclic universe theory!!! My current Kraken is 13.6tflops strong, too bad it can currently only compute gpu workunits 5 mins out of every hour! Thanks for providing an awesome project, and some faith in universal science... I just cannot stomach all the tflops going to collatz! -Jay Pound
