This is not a trivial accomplishment. Hyperthreading won't help, more cores won't help, faster networking doesn't help, tricky BOINC compiles don't help. I'm talking about the raw power of one processor core working on a WU. Over and over. I've compared lots of top computers here. I've tried to beat him on a per-core basis. My best computer running perfectly is still 10% slower per core per WU in an apples-to-apples comparison. Near-future processors look like they will not beat this per-core speed. Technology is leaning towards more cores or more threads per die, so the msattler raw core power record might stand for a long time. Congratulations to msattler who has found that bleeding edge.
