Community Computing Power...

It appears the Large Hadron Collider is using a similar protocol as Einstein at home, right down to the software needed to install on your computer/laptop.

I noticed my embed wasn't displaying this morning, and quite naturally got concerned. The issues reported will probably be resolved soon (hope we didn't contribute to it):

Problem with job supply from CERN

WE HAVE A PROBLEM. WE BELIEVE SOME "ROGUE" SYSTEMS ARE SUCKING OUR QUEUES DRY AND THUS OVERLOADING THE SUPPLY OF JOBS TO EVERYONE ELSE.

Please be patient - we will try and fix this as soon as possible.

Until this problem is understood, we have disabled the creation of new jobs and users for the moment. As soon as the system is recovered, the work units flow will be restored.
