I might be getting my wish.

I’ve been pretty quiet this week working interstate doing the kind of work that pays the bills. While I’ve been mobile I’ve been checking in every day to see how the grid is growing/shrinking over the previous 24 our period.

As you can see from the graph below the 1st of August was the stronges day with a smidge over 250,000 uploads. This is still far short of what my computer can pump by itself.

My current thinking is that maybe I am going to get my wish and that this grid idea is going to fail fast, mostly because I’ve found it difficult to drive the traffic required to start getting a significant amount of processing power. There have been quite a few suggested improvements to the system which I hope to tackle soon, it will be interesting to see whether they make more people want to join the grid.
