With the addition of the NVIDIA GPU client and the new ATI Radeon 4850 with it's 800 steam processors, the new NVIDIA Teslas, the ATI FireSteam 9250s (for you rich folks :)), GPU processing power increased by nearly 300TFLOPS with just ~1500 new active CPUs! :O
Well done Folding@Home team, and every user involved in the effort :)

We peaked at 2 PFLOP several weeks ago and lost it.

Re: 2 PFLOP Mark :)
Now if someone would just FOLD on the 4850 and get us some numbers, some of us could start ordering parts for our F@H Farms . . .
Re: 2 PFLOP Mark :)
brent, I wouldn't order just yet because the GPU code will be optimized over the next 3 months (probably the most dramatic changes in next 3 months) and that could change the cost/performance equation from one GPU to another... I'm anxious like you are and I am going to be patient and wait.
