            <description><![CDATA[The last month marathon is over. About 5 mln jobs were crunched, with much success. In particular, the last batch was extremely successful and we owe a huge THANK YOU to all who participated. We reached the overall effective throughput equivalent to a dedicated cluster of 6,000 CPUs!!!!!! This is far beyond our previous result.  Some of the scientific results of the last run are surprising. We will rerun a part of the experiment to make sure the results are correct, and if they are, these are very good news. We will disclose the details if the results are confirmed. We will also open another thread in our scientific forum to discuss the results of these batches. Stay tuned!]]></description>

            <title> New batch with 3.3 million jobs </title>

            <description><![CDATA[The new batch with 3.3 million jobs has just been started. Thanks to all who were patient enough to wait for this batch.We made every effort to fix all the problems encountered during the previous batch, and hope that this time DDoS will not disturb us. This batch is not a challenge but a regular run, but we do hope it will be crunched quickly. Good luck to us all]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Thanks to our contributors this batch is quickly approaching its end. Toward the end of the run we're starting to restrict sending WUs to computers that are known to return the results without the delay. That is why many of you started receiving no-work-sent messages despite the WUs in the queue. I am preparing a new batch, but it will take about 3-4 days. So the mid-end of the next week will be busy again.]]></description>

            <title> DDoS attack </title>

            <description><![CDATA[We have been under DDoS for the last few days, and it turns out that more than 40,000 connections per second were attempted to be established. This caused the Technion authority to decrease
		  the input traffic, and later on close the service altogether. We are back to life now, but our IP has changed, in a hope to escape the DDoS. Nothing is required to be done to keep
          crunching - your computer will eventually find the way to the server. Hope this incident will be the last one at least until this batch is finished. ]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[We didn't survive the recent power failure and lost all the 300,000 results crunched since yesterday.. Restarting everything - I apologize for all the 'not-needed' results from now on - we cannot make use of them at all. It's not only that our power failed, but also our UPS, it was too much for the DB, and the problem was revealed only now]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[We anounce the very first Superlink challenge!!!! We must finish this batch as fast as possible to show the peak performance of the system. This is a new 2 mlns jobs batch, and we do hope that this time there will be no glitches. The analysis of the previous run will be published soon on our forums.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[Long time no talk... We have just started a huge (about 2.5 mlns jobs) batch, after fixing most of the glitches we were aware of. We hope to see all our crunchers back. Hope it will run to completion as fast as the previous batch. Happy crunching!]]></description>
