With all the questions about credit for past "units", I realized that I didn't really know what the value of a "unit" is.

I'm wondering how many "units" of data you folks currently have that need to be crunched? How far did we get under Seti@home Classic?

I gather that the amount of data that could be processed theoretically increases with every passing second. However, given that the data my Seti@home Classic is crunching was gathered by Aricibo in Jan 2005, I suspect that there is actually a finite limit of data that needs crunching at the present time. Could somebody tell me how much data needs to be crunched and how we're doing thus far?

Thanks.
