I'll give it another try for a few days. Looking at the top hosts, the credits aren't as good as on PG's PPS app (over 15K per day with my i7) which is almost triple what the top i7 is getting on Primaboinca. I'm not saying the credits at Primaboinca are rotten, but I know I can get more than 6K per day on both PG PPS and on Collatz. So, I have a feeling it should be retitled "Third Best Credits for CPU". Only time will tell...

Here's an i7 950 just like mine running Collatz CPU tasks: http://boinc.thesonntags.com/collatz...ames=0&state=3
86,400 seconds per day / 10,944.46 average seconds per WU * 378.89 average credits per WU * 8 threads = 23,928.73 credits per day.
Here's an i7 950 on PrimaBoinca: http://www.primaboinca.com/results.php?hostid=11633
86,400 seconds per day / 6357.57 average seconds per WU * 200.00 average credits per WU * 8 threads = 21,744.15 credits per day.
Here's my i7 950 on PG PPS Sieve: http://www.primegrid.com/results.php?hostid=233537
86,400 seconds per day / 97,526.49 average seconds per WU * 3,371.00 average credits per WU * 8 threads = 23,891.31 credits per day.
In other words, the 64-bit Collatz app and the 64-bit PG PPS Sieve both pay about 2K per day more than Primaboinca on an i7 950. Dirt still pays more than any of them when it is up and running.
Note: For 32-bit operating systems, PrimaBoinca pays better since the 32-bit Collatz and PG apps only pay about half as much for the 32-bit apps as the 64-bit apps.

Ah, man...why didn't I know this? Do'h! I would totally have been running Collatz on the CPU if I knew it was that good. All my OSes are 64bit, so I'll be there in between the challenges! Looks like there's nothing better than it beside DiRT - and they have been quite out and down for the count this past month or so.
The numbers are in. http://www.primaboinca.com/results.p...ames=0&state=3
That's my own machine. 86400 seconds per day / Primaboinca average WU time of 7042.33 seconds * 200 credits per WU * 8 threads = 19,629 credits per day. So, I still do better on Dirt, PG PPS Sieve, and Collatz making Primaboinca #4, at least for 64-bit operating systems that is.
19K is still really good compared to most other BOINC projects, but I'll take the extra 20% PG and Collatz award. Sure wish DiRT would come back though....
