1 peta or more? If so wonder how many they're mining a day.

I don't think anyone as a person reach this kind of power.
but if.........
1PH will earn about 553BTC/day on 909 millions difficulty.
in about couple of hours when difficulty will be around 1.2 billions, 1PH will earn about 422BTC/day.

GHash.io's private farm is likely in excess of 1 PH/s.  They would be the only ones that have that kind of privately controlled hash power at this time.

my understanding was they only had around 300-400TH?

ps: the 72TH / 100TH mine is now roughly 520TH

We can only estimate, but it's definitely way above 400 TH.  If it's not over 1 PH/s, it's extremely close.  Anytime their public pool has issues (almost daily), you can get a rough idea of their private mining speed.  Similarly, you can see the opposite when their private mining has problems.

Whole network is around 8.5 Petahash and ghash.io is 30% so they are at 2.55 Petahashes

They don't own all that hash, they own an estimated 1PH

The current pool speed of ghash.io is 3.14 phs, but I have no idea if that includes the amount they use for themselves.

Well my university computer can reach almost 2 PT/s, it is not designed for mining but for computational tasks. Still wish I could run a miner on a weekend.

That is a legitimate WTF amount to try and think of. Here I am getting 30kh/s if I'm lucky >.<

Well I get about a third of what you get. So I know how you feel. Still wondering would it be worth to try and bribe people who work there on weekends to get an access to it. Since that would be great!

Honestly, it might be worth a BOHICA xP

different kinda petahash bro sorry for the bad news  :(

As of late November then entire computing power used by miners was equal to 500 of the fastest supercomputers times 256! :) That well over a exaFLOP, you would have to NSA to reach 1PH/s I think at this point in time. :)
