Now is the time to Rally!!!!

With the Stat reset to Zero it has closed the gap for us. It's time to put the pressure on. Our production is very close to the DSL team if we can pick up our production we can pull ahead and stay there.

The last I heard Vijay and his team(?) were working on the stats problem. I don't think that the stats were supposed to reset the way they did. Haven't heard anything else though and don't know if they'll be able to recover the old stats.

What happened to statman's site?

Lets not quibble about what happened Lets just take advantage of the situation. If the stats get fix great. If not great.

Just trying to give an update on what was the most recent message coming out of Stanford.

err.. that is the million$$ ques. Haven't heard much of anything in that regard except from some folks over at Team Helix that thought the new client looked pretty cool. Not sure if it's stable yet.
Here's the latest post from Vijay on 2.0 beta
Release 5 should be going out today. I'll post a message when it
does. There are a lot of bug fixes and GUI mods. Also, we're now
compressing WUs in both directions which makes F@H... 2.0 bandwidth as
little as 50x smaller than F@H... 1.x!

Just found this odd tidbit that I missed. Not sure if anybody else posted it.

Re: Is anything done with the benchmarking?


Yes, when we get rolling, slower machines will get smaller WUs (with
less credit).

Now thats what my PPro 200 need faster wu. I don't care if there only 1wu if its faster. It takes a long time to fold a wu on the PPro 200 (Dual)

thats great....my 333celeron at 416 ended up getting 10WU only 2 units...lol it took with nothing running 8:45 for 1 frame hope fully i will get some faster ones for it......and maby my 166 pentium can get some action these days hehe

ya if the new client will fold fast enough for a 166 I could add 4 more machine I have 4 166 in storage there not worth anything but if they could fold!!!! One more wu is one wu.

There have been quite a few rumours floating around about it. I thought that was pretty cool too, but it could also mean that faster machines will get huge wu's to fold. Another interesting thing that I read about two weeks ago or so is that they may be using a different method of breaking up the protein folding process. It made me wonder if it will allow slower machines which should be of great benefit to the project. They will find massive amounts of power in those old slow machines if they figure out how to take advantage of them. Remember. I don't know if any of this is the way it will be. It's mostly speculation but it's something to look forward to.
