PS3 dominating all platforms on the folding@home charts

[powersfoss]

Do you run folding@home on your PS3? If so, take a look at this chart at Stanford's site:

This chart shows that by far, Windows has the bulk of the active CPUs currently running with about 184,000 CPUs folding at this moment. Even though there are only 33,300+ PS3s currently active, we PS3 owners are contributing 827 TFLOPS (that's 827 trillion floating point operations per second!) to their 175 TFLOPS.

Even though the ratio of Windows folders to PS3 folders is greater than 5:1, the ratio of work unit processing power is just under 5:1 in favor of the PS3! This is due to the extraordinary power of the 8-core Cell processor at the heart of every PS3 blu-ray player.

Seeing these numbers, I've never been prouder to be a PS3 blu-ray fan.
