Seems like it takes about 36hrs here

WooHoo! Self acclaimed slowpoke of the year finally finished one!

. I thought maybe you got caught up in the hubbub of your new beast and forgot about us fellow Folders.

Congrats darling.

Nooo, how could I forget you all? Like I said, I had one mother of a WU...took forever LOL

Thanks

...I'm now folding a titchy little WU which should be finished sometime tomorrow!

Chriso · 12-11-2006

I've grabbed one that's gonna take me ages to do, 50000 frames on Gromacs.

50000?! Jeez my last huge GROMACS one was like 500 LOL

jhtalisman · 12-11-2006

Each WU has different frame sizes and accordingly times to process those frames. One of those 500 frame GROMACS took about 30 minutes per frame, the one I'm currently doing (20000 frames) is 13-14 seconds per frame.

So effectively, all WU should be the same processing time within a tolerance of approximately +/- 30% ???

Chriso · 12-11-2006

But...the last one that Arachne submitted was worth nearly as many points as all 4 of mine added together.

Wow, something really weird just happened. I maximised F@H, and I lost all the frames I'd done on the current WU. Starting it over now.

**Arachne** · 13-11-2006

I just snagged a 20000 one

...luckily each frame is about 15 seconds LOL...but it'll still take awhile!

debro · 13-11-2006

I've got 8x 20000 WU's over 5 PC's ... each frame about 20s ..... 30s on the slower CPU's

**jwill427** · 14-11-2006

congrats Arachne!

ccbadd · 15-11-2006

Well, with Debro chomping at my heels, I added another PC to the group. I might have to resort to getting a PS3. Anyone know when the client will be ready for the PS3?

debro · 15-11-2006

*chomp*

I know who one of them is .... but not the other ... but I'm not gonna tell

Chriso · 15-11-2006

My Dad's slowpoke Athlon 1GHz just turned in its first WU, haven't checked what it got next, but it better not be one that takes ages like the one I'm on now

debro · 15-11-2006

A quicky calc suggests we just have to do 17813x what we've done to pull even with the leading team ... which is a bunch of overclocking nerds benching their machines ...

If we don't beat them at number crunching ... at least we beat them by lifestyle .. or at least having a life, eh?

Awww bless

...yeah, this one I'm on is gonna take another 2 days at least.

@Debro - what, we have lives?

Have you setup the CLI/System Service client proggie on your second core?

Of course. In the real world even

With people not linked to computers ... neither via bluetooth, Wifi nor other portable/wireless technology.

Not yet. But it's on my to-do list

Hehe, the people I hang out with offline are definitely not into computers.

@jwill427 - Bah

**Womble** · 16-11-2006

Hmmmm. It's making my P3 797Mhz 512mb computer mouse flicker.

Can't use my computer as it isn't hooked up to the net.
