PrimeGrid?

While attaching an additional Computer to CE (Windows), i noticed in the logs that the first CE WU had something like "primegrid x86" within its name.

Don't want to offend anyone *especially no one from Lithuania ;-)*, but i've never crunched for primegrid, because of personal crunching priorities, so i would like to know which purposes serves this primegrid WU.

Benchmarking?

As you noticed, it was downloaded, but only used once. I think it's way for CE to know how many different computers are working for them, as the WUs using the primegrid software is called statsXXXXXXX_nodelete, or something similar.

We are using this application for benchmarking only.
