It doesn't help that all the benchmarks use flops and Collatz only uses integers. That makes the estimates off by a factor of 8 to start with but it takes client code changes to fix it. There's nothing I can change on the server since the client sends only floating point data and no integer data.

Why of why can't DA............
I recall reading a post on these here forums about an independent group rewriting BOINC client & server code from the ground up. Can't seem to find it now. Anyhoot, does anyone know if have they made any progress with DA on this?
Re: Collatz: Android Applications Now Available
The rewrite-BOINC-project is dead. Nothing really since 2009.

Re: Collatz: Android Applications Now Available
I tried writing a BOINC client GUI in C# .NET but shelved it since I got tired of adding hacks to get around all the ill-formed XML BOINC uses. That, and it was like trying to hit a moving target. As soon as one part was done, the BOINC developers had changed it so it needed to be upgraded again to remain compatible.
