I've been working on a theory of mine after hearing a big question from WCG members, "How can I run more work units?". In essence one WU for each core.. Correct?... No... for example HT (Hyper-Threading) which consists of Virtual cores.
Now the bigger question, "what if my processor doesn't support HT? ". Now back to my theory.. and that is, "Run a virtual pc/server ." I started testing this on 6/25/09 with my E8400 @ 4ghz and the results are nice.
Don't get to excited each virtual pc/server only represents one core, but with a capable processor you can run more virtual pc/servers. So, with the fundamental nature of a processor with multiple cores you can run as many virtual pc/servers as your core number with small to medium impact." i7" users should be able to use HT cores which have the newest more efficient HT.
Now, let's see if your processor qualifies? Intel users need to have VT (Virtualization Technology) and AMD users need to have AMD-V. If you do, then verify that it is turned on in bio's. And remember we all know more RAM the better.
Next what you will need is software to run your virtual PC/server (example: Windows Virtual PC, Windows Virtual 2006/2007, and VMWare.). Obviously, Windows Virtual PC only runs Windows OS's, but there are other software like VMWare which run Windows, Mac, and Linux. You can find others just use google or some other search engine to find them.
Well, what are you waiting for go create your virtual server! Hehehe... I've listed some results from my E8400 with VT below. Just realize from the results below the PC it self ran longer than the Virtual server. After doing a little math you can see the numbers are close give or take 200 or 300 points. The Virtual server returns around 420 to 460 points every 2 to 2.5 hours @ 60% CPU.

I'm curious to see other members results! Please post. thanks!
