On the front page I read Teraflops estimate: 43

What happened? On other stats site Rosetta is still about 32.

at this moment it is even 44.640

I don't want to dampen enthusiasm, but I happened by the datacenter for another reason yesterday and found the assimilator server stalled. At that point the TFLOP estimate was slowly sagging in the range of the 32 or so. I suspect that the large surge in value is a result of the cleared backlog - perhaps not but you'll have a clear picture of things roughly six hours from now (08:15 PDT or 15:15 UTC) when we're 24 hours beyond the restart... -KEL

I don't know if people have noticed but the teraflops number seems to be derived from the number of credits in the past 24 hours divided by 100000. I've seen it take jumps in the past when the project has granted credit in batches to WUs that errored and were not initially given credit. The script that does this runs once a day I believe. But, does anyone know if another mass credit adjustment may have been done over the weekend? If not, has there been a big jump in the number of new hosts or users that might explain the large overnight jump?

Charlie

EDIT: I see Keith has explianed the possible cause of the jump, although I would have expected a smaller jump. Let's hope it is at least due in part to a real increase in crunchig power!

We will see in about 6 hour then.

Otherwise it also could be many people have upgraded to an Optmized Boinc 5.5.0 which improves credit counts allot

Einstein is down, maybe we have a lot of idle Einsteincrunchers for a short time. I'm really curious if this is a hiccup or for real. :-)

Maybe! It's over 49 TF at just past 2 PM here in the US Eastern time zone.

Now 50 Tflops and climbing. It really looks like a glitch.

It doesn't look like a glitch to me, more a giant bug.

It is quiet strange that the number of credits grows much larger than the number of users and host.

But it could be some Idle Einstein Crunchers that previously crunched some rosetta
or a lot of people are switching to a better optimized client

We might also be picking up some SETI crunchers who don't like the new SETI.

lol, i think i'm a small part of it, i registered yesterday and have two 3Ghz computers running rosetta these last 24h. I'm also new to boinc, I dodn't switch from any project.

Great! Welcome aboard Tom.

Folks, here is a chart of credits per day. Divide by 100,000 and you get TFLOPS
