Nope! that is fixed for all ... increase the memory & or upgrade to a faster CPU.

I'm going to try the Boinc for Windows instead of the WCG approved software on my new AMD X2 3800+ shortly to see if it is any faster/generates more points or fully utilises the dual core capability - I will let everyone know how it goes

It is suposed to be able to utilise both cores ... worst that happens is you loose some points while messing.
