Recently yoyo@home introduced a 64 bit Mac application, and about the same time my RAC skyrocketed, from about 125 to 800. Is this a ploy to lure crunchers to attach to this project, or a result of the 64 bit Mac application? Does yoyo@home run in 64 bit on a G5 running Tiger, or is it an Intel/Leopard thing?

I can't answer your question. But I tried it with my Core Duo on Tiger and the results were disappointing; 8900 CPU sec for 7 credits and 22000 CPU sec for 65 credits. Not too good.

My RAC for yoyo has come back down, I guess it was a temporary glitch or something. But I'm not complaining about the points I did get.
