I'm running two dual G4's (1GHz tower with 2Gb of RAM each) and it
takes about 8hrs to process one work unit on either of them. WTF? Both
are using OS X 10.3.4 (Panther) and the Seti software appears to be
using both processors (two processors per Mac) yet I'm getting less
performance than slower Windows PC's (according to various posts in
this forum).

There is no appreciable speed up at night when the Macs are not using
any other software. Does anyone know why the Mac version (3.0.8a) of
the SetiatHome would run slower than my 800MHz single processor WINXP
PC? No other software package (like processor pigs Photoshop or Maya)
runs faster on my PC than on my Macs, so again, what gives?

Are you using the command line code or the screensaver?
