Running a VM is pointless. Just use an affinity changer program to take care of it, and avoid the overhead.

Yeah, I suppose. I've been running process lasso on my other rig to control cores for VM + Boinc. I guess this would be no different.

Also suppose I should send of my cc info for the folks who wrote it..... ;)

It's nice to finally get decent ppd out of my quads, which WU's the gpu's have can make a big difference though.

My Q9550 dropped from ~9300ppd with 2x 1888pts WU's to ~8500ppd with 1x 1888 and 1x 783pts.

Also the p6013's aren't quite as good as the p6012's.

Certainly a big improvement over the A1 core though...

Went from 1900 ppd to 6700 ppd.

VM or Windows client? Also, was -advmethods set in the client config on startup, or do you have it as an argument in the shortcut (if running the Windows client)?

It doesn't matter which way you do that.
