Have for a while, takes me like 1600 hours to complete the simulation. How long does it take other people?

I have 3 systems running it
AMD X2 3800 2.0GHz @ 2.4GHz 1GB RAM: about 2100 hours
P4 2.8GHz @ 3.0GHz 512MB RAM: about 2200 hours
Celeron 3.2GHz 768MB RAM: about 2400 hours
So it sounds about right for a C2D.
What I hate is they take so long and most of the time I replace my motherboard, or do a reformat before it is over with, so I never get one done, but I still get credit :beer:

1600 hours isn't bad...
My laptop (T2050 @ 1.6Ghz, 1 GB RAM) is currently showing 2750 hours!

Before you do a reformat you can just make a copy of Boinc dir and then format a HDD. After you install fresh copy of the OS just copy boinc dir back to its place and run the boinc installation again. It should install over the curret files and resume where it stopped crunching. I have done it several times and works without a problem. :) ( the original files were created during Barton/NF7 days, since then I replaced 3 mobos :) )
takes about 1500-1600 hours for each WU for me

most i ever let it run was about 200 hours or so...
I wonder how a dual C2E would hold up to that :P
