Subject: | Another RC5 quirk |
Hello. Along with the Amiga client fun that's being discussed here, I've found
a great way to make my info on the distributed.net stats pages look great.
Yesterday I uploaded five days worth of work to the server and the stats page
says;
676 blocks were completed yesterday (0.00000098% of the keyspace)
at a sustained rate of 2,100 KKeys/sec! Ranked 10,791 for the day.
Yesterday is this participant's best day ever!
The odds are 1 in 54,194 that this participant will find the key before anyone
else does.
Now someone REALLY needs to re-write the code that manages the stats database.
I'm running a 603-160MHz and an 040-25MHz how do they get 2,100KKeys per sec?
A proud member of the Amiga RC5 Team.
