based on the huge difficulty jump today.... I think someone has succeeded in fpga/asic bitcoin flooding Sad

*bell ring*
We have a winner!

Two FPGA clusters went live.

I can't really describe the feeling of learning that the two initial units were for prototyping and there were RACKS of them to be used when idle.

Are you sure they are on? I can't see a noticeable bump in total network power. The increase is steady within normal variance. Perhaps a lot of GPU miners shut down their systems at the exact same time? Sure you didn't mix hash/s and Mhash/s?
