It's simply a result of what you dedicate your transistors towards. GPUs have very little cache, whereas the greater bulk of chip area on a CPU is cache. Since all you have is a bunch of transistors, every block that you make for computation instead of cache increases arithmetic performance.
DivX is completely closed source now. Project Mayo is all but dead, the speed and quality of its encode aren't anywhere near that of DivX 4.11. Oh well. Other projects have branched off of Project Mayo, like XVid (xvid.org), that are doing pretty well, still pretty beta. Checkout Doom9.org for some more updated info
Didn't the article say that the isotope is attached onto an antibody? Thats how it got to the tumor int he first place, why would you think it's going to emit an alpha and just get up and leave?
