The PS3 folders are TFLOPping more than all other OS/CPU's combined.  118 more TFLOPS to be exact.

I'm not sure if it can be figured this way but take 367 TFLOPS and divide it by 14,971 an you get each PS3 contributing 0.0245 TFLOPS. Now if we take the CPU's running Windows and turn them into CELLs it would take the TFLOP total from 151 to somewhere near 3900. :lol: I have no idea if there's any accuracy to the method used to calculate that but it's interesting nonetheless.
