SETI Enhanced: not the SETI @ Home you are accustomed to...
Indeed no. s@h enhanced is indeed different and does much deeper
analysis. The volume of space searched is much greater for whatever
equivalent sensitivity compared to s@h-classic.
1. With the original SETI version one could finish up to 20% to 30% of a
work unit in the first 5 to 10 minutes of CPU time. This is no longer true.
The same amount of CPU time gets you about ~0.55% of the way thru an
"Enhanced" work unit's search.
Sorry but you don't make sense there. s@h-enhanced does a lot more
calculations and so takes longer to process a WU.
2. Faulty bugs left in from SETI @ Home : If you are not a member of a team,
SETI Enhanced should suppress the printing out of "Team: " on the screen.
Please post this as a bug if you consider this to be a bug.
3. The program still does not indicate what point of the sky the work unit
comes from: this in spite of the existence of more than adequately suitable
EINSTEIN @ Home star display data.
Then please help the developers with this.
4. Starfield: the number of stars should be set at 100 (or less), with +100
... -100 for speed.
???
Sorry but I don't use the fancy graphics. 100 - 100 = 0 so no stars
there for you... Or what are you trying to say?

You can't adjust the display settings, most importantly: you can't import
display settings from your main SETI account.
Is not that website only a bare minimum just to interface to the test
systems?
Happy crunchin',
