I was looking at my pending results and saw this one. I am machine 31716. The other machine that has reported at the time of writing is 14263, which is claiming half what I am and took a lot longer to process the wu.
The thing is, if you look at the details of that machine, it is a 3.2GHz machine whereas mine is a 2.53GHz. I would have expected such a machine to crunch much faster, yet looking at it's benchmarks, it has half the flops rating of mine.

Odd machine.

Host 14263 is a HT PC using 2 "virtual" CPU's to crunch at the same time.
During the benchmark the results are calculated per CPU.

There are many threads about this subject; it all comes down to speed versus throughput; look at his WU's : its reporting two finished at the same time; dubbel processor system;
do a search on this subject and will read it all; see also the the doc's of Paul Buck on this.
John,
Hmmm, looking at the same

Hmmm, looking at the same machine today, it seems to have doubled it's flops rating.
