Howdy...I recieved my first workunit a few days ago. Computer has been
on almost constantly. Screensaver says 61% completed and CPU time is 31
hours and 45 minutes. At this rate it will about four days to complete.
I do not normally use the computer for more than a few hours a day, so
I do not believe it will be of any use to seti as there are others with
much faster computers than a dell p3 700mhz with 128mb of ram running
om win 2000. Is this a normal amount of time for a workunit to be
completed?
