I put two more cores into the mix and found that another machine had stopped running the project and got it back up. Now I just need to figure out why one of my Q6700's is taking about twice as long to crunch the units than my other one. The only difference is one has 8gigs of RAM and the other has 4.

I have favre quads offline, they have a couple days cache, but comcast messed up my new modem - so, maybe they will help a bit when comcast decides to get it fixed in a few days.
Unfortunately, these boxes are also loaded with GPU's.. 4 ATI 4870's running collatz, 2 ATI 4870 on MW, and 2 nVidea GPU's on GPUgrid. so maybe the collatz cache will hold out, maybe not. But MW cache only lasts about 20 minutes..
and Freehal is going to take a dive as well - sucky comcast!

I even tried switching the box over to Linux when the first set of WU's finished and it took even longer. Run time went from 19-20 hours to 29 
I suspended them at 67% 20 hours in and switched back to Vista.
