We are currently working on reorganizing the CMSEARCH application into two variants of which one will run a combined package of many very small WUs while the other runs the rest (the default CMSEARCH) WUs. With this we intend to achieve three goals. First, the combination of many tiny WUs into one package tremendously reduces the client-server communication load: a big relieve for our server which will make it significantly more stable even during team challenges and races. Second, the packaged WUs will write a checkpoint after each completed sub-WU. Third, because the users will be allowed to opt in or out for each of these two CMSEARCH variants there will be much more flexibility at the user's end to control maximum CMSEARCH runtimes.

@tm a few of the old cmsearch-wu are in the pipeline and after that the project can do final changes. (choice: long runners or the shorties )
new apps with more performance are out for MAC OS 10.4 +, Linux and Win.
also we need urgend testers with MAC OS 10.4 and 10.5 with intel 64bit.
( best you write directly here: http://www.rechenkraft.net/phpBB/viewforum.php?f=74 )
happy crunching

ps: you can see how many tiny wu are in a archive:
cms_GA-p[DZ-Lin64s]_7_Desulfitobacterium-hafniense-Y51_AP008230........
here are 7 in one archive.
can be over 100 or 1000.
