Anybody knowing how to calculate the amount of gflops a job will bring? I've got a job running for 295000 seconds now, with CPU rating of 100. To calculate the points I remember one had to divide the number of seconds by 3600 (=> hours) and multiply with the cpu rating. How does that work with gflops?

points = gFlops/8

Thanks, Anteraan. Then gflops = seconds / 450 * cpu-rating. Wow, then the two jobs I'm working on right now are worth 152000 gflops, both being 95% completed.

Why introduce gflops after all, if the difference in value compare to points lies only in a constant factor?
