I got this off the Folding-at-home mailing list a few weeks back. The client runs quicker if you run the windows terminal client under wine. It still is slower than if you run Win 98. I was able to cut off about 2 mins for each step, that is about 3 and a half hours off each protein!

Apparently their linux compiler isn't that efficient. I am hoping that v2 is better but from what I hear on that mailing list doing the same trick above is still better.

The 2.0 beta has the problem, but Vijay has said that for the final version, they'll be using a better compiler.

I just saw that there is a R8 of the V2 for linux. I wonder improvements were made already.
