I seem to recall there was some uncertainty regarding how to most effectively/accurately test the Rybka Cluster for the various rating lists. Now that it's here, have there been any decisions about how, or even if, people will be testing it?
Thanks,
Justin

It will be quite expensive to test:
A Rybka Cluster 40 consists of 40 physical cores and can be rented for 238 Euro (incl. VAT) per day.
