Re: Are you distributed computing?
I really need a new computer. I see that many members have processed much more that I in a very short time.
I'm still using a 1.1 GHz Thunderbird. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Re: Are you distributed computing?
I am using three machines, my wife's laptop, 1.6gig, my 2 gig home machine and lowly my work 550 (when it is on). So my results aren't from just one machine.
I am curious how many machines and at what speeds Bill H and Trailstoride are running.
I think I am very slowly catching Bill, but trailstoride is still way out pacing me.

Re: Are you distributed computing?
My friend is into OCing as well. He also like to water cool. He has a 4 year old, and a 5 year old, both have computers. He and his wife have one each. He is networked with his parents.
Currently, he runs seti on all of them, but my feeble efforts so far to get him to fold have gone unanswered.
I will step up my efforts.
I can use the standard argument about his children growing up in a more disease free world, I guess.
Hey, I might even be able to get him to join CPFs team (32102), but he might want to be a part of hardware central, which is where I think he hangs out.

I have it installed on my 2 2.5G P4's. Doesn't run all the time though, mostly at night. It also runs on an old P Pro, but that thing is so slow mine does more in an hour than it does in a day.
Looks like Trailstoride has 9 processors running.
Amazing we made it into the top 300, I was happy when we first broke into the top 2,000 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Be nice if we could get a couple dozen more CPFers on the team.

Re: Are you distributed computing?
Yes, it would be very nice.
C'mon guys, think of how it will help you children, and loved ones.
I don't notice the CPU hit on my machine, and I'm only running it on a 1.1 GHz T-Bird. I have it start at boot, and it runs on mine constantly. I never turn off my machine.

Re: Are you distributed computing?
Don't know on win2k, I suppose setting the priority down won't help if nothing else is running? I know on my old laptop if I had seti running the fan would kick in ever 20 min or so, if seti was off it never ran, that CPU must have been doing some serious work /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Re: Are you distributed computing?
Just thought I'd give the thread a bump. Perhaps drum up some more support.
It looks as though we've completed 3133 work units. Not bad!
Thanks for the help guys, lending the effort your spare CPU cycles.
Does anyone else want to join? C'mon guys, do it for your kids...

Re: Are you distributed computing?
Just in case dont know where to get it:
http://www.stanford.edu/group/pandegroup/folding
Team CPF
http://vspx27.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py?qtype=teampage&teamnum=32102
Don`t need a fast computer to tun it, runs on a P3 600 here,24/7, admittedly takes 2 or 3 days to run a unit.

Re: Are you distributed computing?
Wow, I have a 1.1 GHz machine, and the last time I checked, it was about 60 hours for me to run one.

Re: Are you distributed computing?
Somehow I don't think I am going to catch up with Trailstoride.
We are slowly creeping up the ladder as a team, about 1 place a week.
For the record I use hideIt.exe so I don't see it running on my computer. When I used to see it all the time I would inadvertently close the window all the time. Now it just runs. I made an icon with the -show one with the -hide switch so I can see it if I want. I have it start with the -hide switch on startup.

Re: Are you distributed computing?
It's to bad that the console is not multi-processor aware. I have a dual pIII-1GHz running 8 hours daily, I currently have to run two separate console sessions simultaneously to leverage on the performance of both CPU's. It would be nicer to have both processors working on the same assignment at the same time to get faster turnaround.

I do childhood cancer research on about sixteen computers here in my house.

An update, just as an excuse to bump....
check this!
We now rank at #244, we need some more people!

Re: Are you distributed computing?
I don't think you can add them. If I remember correctly, the team units will just start when you set it in the setup items. My previous units didn't add.
