I can get one CPU WU done in a day with the normal CPU Client + GPU Client, but when I use the SMP Client + the GPU Client it will take me four days to process one CPU WU. I'll get several GPU WUs done in a day still, that hasn't changed. Will the one SMP Client CPU WU give more points over a four day period than completing four normal CPU Client WUs?
So which is better?
SMP Client + GPU Client = 9-11 WU over four days
CPU Client + GPU Client = 12-14 WU over four days
Isn't the advantage to using the SMP client that it will use multiple cores to process one WU? Why would you want to limit its CPU affinity to one core. That seems like it would just make it identical to the normal CPU Client.
I may just be thoroughly confused about how these folding programs interact.
