All of these systems together slightly beat the Roadrunner system.

I’ve noticed that our folding team is slipping a little. I’m sure FR is busier than usual since it is an election year. Maybe we should do another appeal to FReepers to join the team.

Our interconnects are about a million times slower than Roadrunner’s, but our power in numbers is huge. I believe F@H is in the Guinness Book of World Records as the most powerful distributed computer, and that’s mainly because of the PS3s.
