    Can someone please explain what exactly these are, and how much more efficient they are than the previous ABP2 Cuda units? Sorry for the blatant question, but I can't seem to find proper information about what those WU's are.

    By all means put a link up if there is something explaining them :D I don't mind a little reading.

    Thank you.

      The main difference is that BRP (Binary Radio Pulsar) isn't restricted to data from the Arecibo telescope as a data source. There're a few minor tweaks to the CPU app. The CUDA app can perform much faster than before, although there currently are (windows) scheduler problems hobbling it.
