So, at first there were just very short tasks, each paying 29 (awesome) credits. Then longer tasks paying 115 credits. Better than most projects, but not quite as awesome. It looked like they changed the credit formula. But I notice the short/29 tasks are still being mixed in. Now, I see 58 credit tasks. So it looks like there is a third category now. I wonder if there is a way to force the best paying tasks?

Please also notice that our total RAC at BoincStats took a dive.....
But only until Willy adds this project...Then we can see some progress!

As a comparison, DNETC is trying to crack 72bit RSA. Going from that to 1024 bits....ehhh...here's DNETC's current progress:
Total Blocks to Search: 1,099,511,627,776
Total Blocks Tested: 15,225,010,302
Overall Rate: 59 Blocks/sec
Total Keys to Search: 4,722,366,482,869,645,213,696
Total Keys Tested: 65,390,921,328,353,083,392
Overall Rate: 254,399,787,303 Keys/sec
Percent Complete: 1.385%
Time Working: 2,975 days
And DNETCs expected finishing time:
The odds are 1 in 32,055 that we will wrap this thing
up in the next 24 hours. (This also means that we'll
hit 100% in 32,055 days at yesterday's rate.)
So jumping from just 72bits to 1024? Yeah this project will be around awhile.
Anybody else figure out how to get it to run on slower machines? My Win2000 machines, I can see why, but I have a couple of P4's with XP and it still errors out. Could add a couple more thousand a day if I could get'm running.

If it ain't crunch'n, unplug it!
My P4 works in Linux. Perhaps you can try the live cd Dotsch-ux.

All my boxes other than my desktop are P4s 2.8Ghz~3.2Ghz. Only my box with Windows 2000 Pro cannot crunch this project. The other boxes run XP Pro, two are 32 bit and the other is 64 bit.
Also my two laptops can crunch this project and they have Pentium M CPUs running Ubuntu.
I know of at least two projects that require at least xp sp2. sp1 does not work. This may be one of those.
