I tried the new SETI optimization on my PowerBook G4 1 GHz 1 GB RAM, running BOINC 4.44 SuperBench and the new SETI as CLI. Unfortunately for me, after I installed it this morning…
Wow Beadman. That is weird. Can you give a little more info on your setup and OS. Did you actually "replace" the app_info.xml file?
