Yeah..
You know, fortunately the harvesting stage is the only time I can't really
use the PC.
I can do email & web browsing and use Notepad but I need about 1.35 GB for
that stage that takes 25 hours. I can't use the second PC bec. that has 512
MB from the first so I put all in one PC.

But during the learning stages, which take hours to days to weeks, I can use
the PC. The learning stage takes 350 MB and I run it in lowest priority.

There are so many ways to optimize those patterns' value and not being a
mathematician, I sometimes stare at the screen (output values) for hours and
suddenly I get an idea, interrupt the learning process, modify 2 lines,
restart it and the results converge faster/higher..

But this depends on the progress of the learning cycles, the size of the
pattern database, the range of their values etc.
