I've noticed that the Windows client is quite a bit faster than the Linux one.

I've got two virtually identical systems here (A64-3500, 2gb RAM):
  • Windows Avg Credit: 352.66
  • Linux Avg Credit: 270.49


Since this appears to be the case, I'm now running the Windows client on the Linux machine under VMWare which, hopefully, will bring its numbers up some. Has anyone else tried this tactic? Has anyone tried running BOINC under Wine?
