Turned off by default would be good, as I for one don't plan to ever use it.

That's what Delta and Vantech/Sunon fans and GOOD heatsinks are FOR.

I thought that is what waterblocks were for :).

Water cooled is nice, but I can build a complete Athlon cruncher *system* with good-enough air-cooling to survive summer heat fot the cost of that water-cooling system.

I'm a little confused by all the responses since this one: http://www.mersenneforum.org/viewtopic.php?p=3344#3344.

Now that summer is upon us, I'd like to see George procede with this mod in its simple form of a sleep call/iteration; if he is still willing.

It's in 23.3, according to undoc.txt (& the corresponding part of the help file) although it didn't make the whatsnew.txt.

If you are running on a laptop or in a hot room and you want to slow the program down to reduce heat, then you can add this line to prime.ini:

Throttle=n

where n is the number of milliseconds to sleep after each iteration.
