I'm curious if multiple cores make a difference in the computing time?

It doesn't seem the crunch time is that different at all.

On that same note, given a quad core processor for example, wouldn't 2 x 2 cores be more advantageous vs using all 4 cores?

TIA

GPU application version is available for beta-testing now. Both AMD and NVIDIA GPUs are supported. To test it, enable "Run test applications" in project preferences here: https://sech.me/boinc/Amicable/prefs.php?subset=project


It seems you need a 1gb VRAM card/chip to run the app... that wasn't noted.
