I heard it was a HP superdome64 itanium, i just saw the screenshot and thought 91 % utilization with 256 cores? is it folding? then i thought maybe it was bubba with his Autocad programs,

but i think its running SQL. I was kind of mind boggling to see so i thought i would post it. (Maybe thats what Iceman is folding on)

They better be folding for LR. Our PPD's been dropping from around 200k to around 140k now.

Here I thought it was an NVidia Tesla folding by McFolden.
McFolden averages 259,202 points/24hrs.
"...Nvidia founded Team “Whoopass”, which consists only of several computers that are running the Folding@Home GPU client. Even with just 4-5 test machines, the team quickly moved into the top 5% of all contributors by sheer processing power. Dr. Vijay told us that if only 1% of all CUDA-capable users would start using Folding@Home in their spare time, the Folding@Home machine would quickly be considered the fastest performing HPC computer in the whole world – hitting about 60-80 Peta FLOPS of processing power."

how sick is that

it's pretty laggy, CPU is bouncing around from no less than 15% to 50%(one full core), RAM is at ~1080,000kB and holding, with spikes randomly
(many, many, many, many, many, many tabs are open)
and firefox couldnt just close, it had to force quit, and it took a while just to do that
