Our average is 55k, a 15% variation is 8,250.

We had 68,842 on 2/28 and 44,710 2 days later. That's a 35% swing.

If the major players are adding computers in batches it's likely output will surge and fall periodically. Wait a week and see what the new pattern looks like.

One of the guys said in an earlier thread that it seems that we have just wrapped up a bunch of moderately sized projects and appear to be loading a bunch of really big ones. I know I got a huge one early today, but I haven't checked my other downloads.

His (or, maybe hers) theory is that we will see our numbers come back dramatically as these new job start finishing, and that everything should smooth out again as everyone starts processing these big puppies.

I was just illustrating that, as a percentage, the DUmmies have about the same level of variation. I didn't mean to imply that was our actual variation.
