Let's take a look at your FAHlog.txt file out here in the forum, just in case.

Not sure if anyone cares now that the last protein has uploaded, but, here is a snippet of the log file:

A little over 12 hours!

The WU had completed but my quick check didn't show any real progress for the next protein.

Stanford is slipping in more than 1 way.

My trouble too was an Intel iMac! This has been pretty consistant. My Intel MacBook Pro seems to run better although slower and my aging G4 just keeps chugging along never erring out. Too bad it only produces 200 points every 3 days.

Your G4 does that well ?   Nice.

Upgraded to a 1.4GHz GigaDesign CPU a few years ago.
