You're using an old optimized application meant for LF "line feed" wus. There's a new app for the new "MB" (multibeam) wus. The new app has a lower claim than the old LF app. The optimizer (Simon) has asked everyone to upgrade to the new one. I see this from your latest result ID: Revision: 2.2B|xW|FFT:IPP_SSE2|Ben-Joe The new one says 2.4. thanks for noticing and checkiing in. |

I took a quick look at your host, and it appears you need to make a trip to the Coop to pick up the new 2.4 app for your host. See the link in the sticky thread for opti apps. Alinator |

One thing, you're using the old optimized app, you should update to the latest version, 2.4, the version you're using over-claims on credit. Second, looking at the first available result on your results page, This one, your result took less time than the other returned result, so I'm not sure what you're referring to? -Dave [edit] others beat me to this...! |

Anyway, it's been reported that for some AR's it might be possible that the old Coop app would be faster than the new stock app and on others it could be the other way around even on the same host. Generally speaking, 2.4 should be faster than either of them. Alinator |

Seti lists your host as : AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ [x86 Family 15 Model 31 Stepping 0] If memory serves it has SSE2, but you might need to check the "instructions" line of cpuz to make sure. Wait a minute, I have an AMD64 2800 and it has SSE2, so yours probably does, so SSE2-AMD is probably the one you want. |
