I've just noticed that "Einstein Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo, Large)" units are being recorded as "Einstein Binary Radio Pulsar Search (Arecibo, GPU)"
They are CPU units, not GPU and thus the reported numbers will be unrealistic and inaccurate due to the far longer run times of CPU units.

"Arecibo, Large" is the current name of BRP4G, previously called "Arecibo, GPU", see applications page.

This looks OK and the data seems to be available also if you select one of the CPUs. Perhaps wrong name, no idea if it needs to be fixed here or at Einstein, but in genaral it's usable for those interested.

This however looks quite broken, not to mention, that all those Intel GPUs are not selectable under http://wuprop.boinc-af.org/results/gpu.py.

So it's actually BRP4 that needs more attention.
