The project is Milkyway! Since they've shut down the separation app, the only option is to run the nbody CPU app, which is multi threaded so be careful. It will use all your threads unless you have an app_config.xml in place to control the number of threads per WU. If you need help, just ask.

Last hour of day 1. We're hanging on to a slim lead of less than 100k ahead of the Yanks!

I think we squeaked by to finish in 1st on day 1. Can't tell for sure. The FB site seems to be down. I wonder if someone is bitter about the day 1 standings :roll:

Another clean sweep for TSBT! This goes down in history (for now) as the lowest scoring Milkyway challenge in Formula Boinc or any other competition. The 3 day total for all the participating teams was just 13,753,544. During a Sprint last September running Milkyway, the combined scores of all teams was 569,386,310

The next Sprint is July 20th
