 I have an under performing PC. It's a 1.6 Ghz Duron with Win 2000 Pro OS. The RAC is 95, vs my other PC's 200 (XP 2400+). The bench marks are not all that much slower, (4100 Weat+Dhry, VS 4800 for the other). The problems I can see is that the Duron usually does not have any queued jobs, and the % of time that the BOINC client is running is only 20%. The correction factor is .48 for the Duron, and .47 for the XP 2400. Any ideas what's going on here?  |

 Where are you getting your RAC value from? Check out Boinc Stats for your RAC and see if it's most accurate.
