Here's a quickie: Is BRP4 going to run on Nvidia cards just like BRP3?
I checked the message boards but I couldn't find a definitive answer.
For questions like that, check the applications page - also linked from the home page.
The top group of 'Binary Radio Pulsar Search', installed on 20 July 2011, are for BRP4 - and include a cuda (Nvidia) version for each platform. Compare with the next group, "Gamma-ray pulsar search #1", which won't run on Nvidia cards (yet...)
The main issue with BRP4 seems to have been a relatively slow start for WU generation.

This might continue be a problem for the next couple of days or even weeks. Workunit generation appears to be much slower (5x) for BRP4 compared to BRP3.

You've set up twenty copies of the BRP4-wug daemon?? !! Ouch.

Well, not all are running at a time, the machine couldn't handle all of them. Yesterday I used the priviously disabled instances to migrate from old code to newer, without having to shut down all instances.
