L.S.,

I read a message some time ago on this list that claimed that the number 
of processors had gone down by about 9000. I don't have stats on this 
other than the actual available from the status pages. Does anyone have 
stats over the last year, like numer of pc's and/or processor types, 
processor speeds?

If there would really have been a decrease in participating processors, 
(I don't think so) an updated graph of Primenet throughput would show by 
now, is there any update in the pipeline?

I went through the status.txt file to see if the new 'stress test' 
button could have played a significant role, I don't think so. By the 
way if one runs prime95 without a user name the application fills in an 
S00000 as user name. I found 3170 entries with a name '.' (only a dot) 
The fast majority of these entries seem to be have been abandoned. They 
have been reserved over a long time with a constant daily flow. Does 
anyone know more about this?

YotN,

Henk Stokhorst
