More on the RAC Increase

I think I stopped slightly short of making my point last time, or possibly the post title slightly overstated my point.

Anyhoo my point was that despite a fairly severe pruning of my hardware, my RAC has not dropped much and certainly, seen through the longterm prism of Boincstats-RAC, is remarkably steady. (The surge then drop in raw RAC is mainly due to Milkyway giving me lots of credit in a hurry and then stopping rather than due to the hardware depletions.)


In part this is because I have kept the most efficient bits of the farm. A contibuting factor of course is that GPUGrid has improved it's credit for those who return their results early. Whatever my efficiency is hugely improved which is nice: As well as less noise heat & cost there are far fewer wires which looks much neater and must be much safer!
