Folding on a downward slope

cheezemonkhai · 10-10-2006, 17:04

I know of a 200+ node supercomputer....

but i think they run enough of their own simulations on it that i wouldnt' get any CPU time

devonutopia · 10-10-2006, 19:15

Just credited another 600 unit thats taken over a week to crunch. Took 2 hours to do 1%

***ColinD*** · 11-10-2006, 22:24

Right what I'm really confused by is how I'm submitting work units...in the last 6 months all of my pc / hardware has been rebuilt. So some where a machine is ticking stuff of for me that I've forgot about.

Seems the only polite thing is to wind the production house up again...

I did used to love the seti chase, was far more interactive than folding, as it's a shroter turn around...when will I dump next

PussCat · 14-10-2006, 14:19

Looking a bit better here now

Been credited with 2x 600 pointers today and I've got another due to finish tomorrow morning

Hope you've got some WUs completing soon Steve... or you'd best prepare to be overtaken

Only 411 points ahead of me now!

On the other hand.... looks like if I have any more little setbacks like a pc dying again I'm going to be beaten down a place by the Cheesemonkhai soon

cheezemonkhai · 14-10-2006, 16:19

Sorry Caz,

You overtook me anyway didn't you as I had the poor form of having machines doing nothing for 2 weeks.

Anyway as long as we keep moving upwards hey

indeed..... it's just nice to see 'your own' progress up the board as well as the Team progressing

devonutopia · 14-10-2006, 16:34

Mine's chewing another big'un at the moment.

Sure hope its a 600 pointer again.

I'm about 20k points behind you though caz, so it will be a good while until i catch you.

Blade404 · 14-10-2006, 17:24

I seem to be making slow progress up the board... need to find some more machines to install it on

Wardy · 14-10-2006, 17:54

If you just keep plugging away, you'll make steady progress, as many members on there don't seem to fold continually.

For me, Caz is getting too close for comfort

- I wish this 600 pointer would finish quicker

Steve

PussCat · 14-10-2006, 18:15

ahh... well... I've got a 600 pointer finishing tomorrow, another 600 pointer finishing the day after, and another 600 pointer finishing the day after that - all being well

down you go, Steve

Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but sometime soon

cheezemonkhai · 14-10-2006, 19:21

How do you see which units you are working on at the moment and their worth?

Ta

PussCat · 14-10-2006, 19:31

couple of ways....

one is there's a logfile on your pc (wherever your folding is running from) called fahlog.txt and if you look in there you can see the project - or just look at unitinfo.txt and it tells you the project and percent complete.

Once you have that, you can look on one of the stats sites to find out what the WU is worth.

http://jmol.sourceforge.net/fah/

or

Folding@Home

are 2 I know of......

HTH

PussCat · 17-10-2006, 08:16

Steve - Gotcha

only by 40 points tho

should be gettin another 600 later today tho

**mannyo** · 02-11-2006, 11:25

Hmmm, the slope is getting steeper. only 85000 points in the last 7 days, a few weeks ago we were 110000.

***Neo_VR*** · 02-11-2006, 12:44

I know... im struggling to get CPUs now.. we have new IT staff who are pretty nosey

devonutopia · 02-11-2006, 13:10

I've had no net for ages, so I think credited a big unit last night. Slow going though really. At least it's not totally tailed off. A 25% drop isn't all that bad.

skodaw · 02-11-2006, 13:52

I'm happy to report that I have been able to resurect one of my PC's - a dual processor AMD 64 4400!!

cheezemonkhai · 03-11-2006, 15:41

lost 4 CPU's for a week again, but back now

Tiptronic · 03-11-2006, 23:17

This isn't looking good is it?

14500+ members of Briskoda
Only 121 are members of the Briskoda Folding Team
Out of the 121, only 45 are currently active.

Surely there must be some other members that can join us?

Whether it's 1 PC or 100, it all helps.
