Why am I getting Tinker cores? Unfair :)
One of my machines is getting Tinker cores which are slow a$$es. Two others are getting exclusively Gromacs cores and as result my p3 1 GHz beats my Celeron 2.4 GHz
Any idea about what heuristics they use to distribute the load and types of cores? Or I just have to wait and eventually I will get the Gromacs? Maybe I can force Tinker to go to my slow p3 and Gromacs to Celeron 2.4?
I know I'm a newbie but I want to break into yellow (so far I'm only going to be green) so I'm anxious.
Thanks!

Here are the numbers:
1) If I get a Gromacs core on a Celeron 2.4 I produce about 48 PPD
2) If I get a Tinker core on a Celeron 2.4 I produce about 38 PPD
Now, I'm not actually very sure about the Gromacs number now, it might actually be as high as 58, but let's say it is 48.
The point is that Stanford needs to give more credits for Tinkers IMHO.
