Every stat-unit is 2^28 keys (268,435,456). There are 86,400 seconds in a day.

So, if you do 1 stat-unit per day, you are crunching (a pathetic) 3106.89 keys/sec, right?

268435456 keys/stat-unit * 1 stat-unit/day * 1/86400 days/second = 3106.89… keys/second

And therefore, if you are crunching 310,689 keys/sec, you should be doing 100 stat-units/day, right?

This calculation matches my output. Does this jibe with everyone else's output and keyrates?
If you put a bullseye on yourself, don't be surprised when someone takes a shot at you.

Your math is flawless. I checked it all. That also jibes with the 1000 units per day my G4 350 did and it crunched at about 3,000,000keys/s.

Also my G4 867 does about 2,500 a day and cruches at about 7,500,000keys/s. That's while other apps a running, too.
