Just to clarify....

SETIQ make NO difference to the speed of the SETI client unless of course
your Queue is being hit hard by lots of machines.

It is only the CLI that is giving you the speed inprovement.

RDRAM is responsible for the fast time as SETI is memory bandwidth starved.
I have PIII (same clock speeds)systems with RDRAM and SDRAM and the RDRAM
machines are 3 hours faster.
