As far as I'm aware he has access to a large stash of rather powerful computers in some facility or other which he can only crunch on when it isn't being used for it's real job so his output tends to stop for a while then start up again without warning.

As for caching, when I was watching his output last week he seemed to dump most of his WUs in one go on a daily basis.

he explained his situation on starfire forums once, apperently he 'installs sytems for multinationals etc, and forges an agreement with them re:SETI, ...it would seem he's a very big IT player in the far east (but think his limit seems to be 6k a day, so maybe he has quit his job and just accesses his Q's remotely

oki-doki ...... 6K :eek:

MoS · 23 Oct 2002 at 01:04

[Mr Two] 6k by next week...

6K by next week - Mr One, how are we going to explain all that tritium by-production?!

I suppose we could always dump it 'over the side'...

Anyhow, I can't see why not, particularly with our latest acquisitions... it will be good to take them up to speed for a few days.

Oh me gawd. How on earth do you do it MoS :eek:

Would the coolant used in a nuclear power station be any good to keep overclocked cpu's cool?
