The new phase of WCG's DDDT has launched overnight - but the WCG site is currently unreliable...
I picked up one work unit. It's not a big download, but on my Intel C2D E8400 3GHz running Windows 7 x64, it is using 650MB virtual memory (190MB physical) and looks like it will take about 35 hours. The project states a minimum RAM requirement of 1GB but supports all the common BOINC platforms.
Race you to Gold? :rofl:

EDIT: the above new item explains why there is currently no work available... All Type A have gone out so it will be a wait for Type B WUs.
I received 8 that look like they will take 40-50 hours to complete. They will send out another 5K A wu's "in a few days". I'm not sure when the compled A's will comeback as B's. Even though WCG calls it "production" it is still more like a beta project for now.
Good news - there are a bunch of new WUs being handed out now for DDDT2. Get on it! :crazy
