There really isn't that much benefit to having dual boot. Gerasim doesn't have enough server to handle a major sprint like FB or Pentathlon. Yoyo used to run about 15% faster on Win but I don't know if that is still true. There was another project, I'm thinking TN Grid, that was 35% faster but after they released the latest apps it dropped to a 5% differential.

REALLY hoping that they chose Collatz for the next sprint ;)

I've not been able to revive my Gerasim account. But my good friend Hugh Jarse has waddled forward & taken charge of my 2 available Win64 machines on my behalf. Not that it'll make much difference. SUSA were always going to win, & the rest of you had UBT licked long before I woke up.

And not long after I posted this the project ran out of spstarter WUs. Come on Gerasim@Home, don't play those games!

Congratulations to Bryan and Scole for your performances, I thought Steve might have stopped a little early there but couldn't quite catch him.

A fun sprint.

I must have made the project admins mad. They stopped creating spstarter WUs and left me floundering for several hours.

Ah, I thought it was a deliberate easing off at the end, not you being picky :-)
