Re: Folding production down and up

Three should be possible later, when a GPU client for OSX becomes available. After Snow Leopard, I'd expect.

Re: Folding production down and up

Sorry guys. We had a power failure this evening at work, so more than likely, most of my armada will not be folding this weekend (my most productive time of the week).

Re: Folding production down and up

Yesterday, I was running a 2nd user account along with my main user account.   I believe this interfered with Folding.   I deleted my WU's (twice).

Re: Folding production down and up

kamizuno and caoimhin appear to be back on track.

Jury is still out for Artemis because of multiple machines and weekend scheduling.

MacMenace, Kelly and myself are still lagging.

Re: Folding production down and up

I've been moving my iMac around.  If I start up and there's no connection to the internet, it seems that my protein gets bonked and I get a new protein.  down

Re: Folding production down and up

More trouble with bad proteins.   I just finished my first Intel protein in 6 days.

Re: Folding production down and up

I'm down again. It would seem that I can't keep a protein running. It will start then immediately die. Is there a problem with the servers?

Re: Folding production down and up

I've had this problem from time to time.   Disable Folding in System Preferences.   Delete all of the contents of the Folding@Home folder, except client.cfg.    Re-enable folding.

Re: Folding production down and up

I'm back up! I discarded everything as you suggested. It's just weird.

Re: Folding production down and up

I've added a couple 2.66GHz iMacs this week and yesterday's stats showed it -- 65,280 points for the day. I believe that's a record for me.

Re: Folding production down and up

Yep, that's a record alright.   I had been wondering if it was a statistical anomaly due to bottled up WU's in a queue.   But there's no way the number could be that large without extra machines.

Two 2.66 machines should be 4,500 points per day if 24 hrs per day.   up up

Re: Folding production down and up

It looks to me like my early MBP Core Duo 2Ghz machine is folding like 3 or 4 times faster since upgrading to Snow Leopard! My iMac Core 2 Duo seems only about 5 - 10% faster. Why would a 32 bit CPU machine  have such an improvement relative to a newer 64 bit machine? I want to point out that the iMac is still 3 times faster than the MBP. It used to be about 10 times faster. Also, they are folding the same type protien which is a Gromac type worth 1920 points (usually).  Anyone else with Snow Leopard notice this

Yes, your production is definitely up the last 2 days. http://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/ … mp;u=37344

Yes, I'm sure some of that is due to the previous day being low. We'll see how the numbers look for the weekend.
