Does Einstein spend a lot of time processing FFTs as well?


No, none at all.

The data is FFTed during the preprocessing, so we can distribute the frequency bands to the users, but nothing like this is done in the Apps.

Use Graphic Cards?

Fun to think about, probably Everest to make work.
Bernd, are we dreaming or just crazy?


As I wrote in the PS3 thread - it would mean actually rewriting parts of the analysis code with a completely new structure. Probably some man-months of work (I think even a bit more than for the PS3/Cell). Might be worth to write and optimize for a large number (many hundrets or thousands) of identical systems, but not for a few dozens.
