Beeing told that seti_enhanced-ppc-v6 should speed up crunching by about x2 I find it difficult to decide if that is the case after all. The seti_enhanced-ppc-v6 client is now residing in the ~/Library/Application Support/BOINC Data/projects/setiathome.berkeley.edu folder as it should, together with the app_info.xml file nessecary to make BOINC Manager execute the swap from 5.13 to ppc-v6. In BOINC Manager's Tasks pane: Application you still read that 5.13 is doing the job, which is as it should be, I think, due to how the app_info.xml file works. So everything looks fine. But I still would like some tangible evidence about a successful implementation, also about the extent of the enhancement. Is that possible I'd like to be informed.

In a result you finished:
OS X optimized S@H Enhanced application by Alex Kan
Version info: OS X Altivec (G4/G5, G5-optimized v6-nographics) V5.13 by Alex Kan

That shows you are using an optimized application.

If you look at your results page, when you made the change over, your speeds have more than halved, and up to 1/3 less time than before.

I made an estimate according to your suggestion and got a figure of a x2 speed-up, that should be satsfatcory I presume. Thanks.
