Hi from a part time folder with a question.

Does Electricsheep (http://www.electricsheep.org/) count as a DC project?

[thideras]

I guess....kinda...

It is pretty original, I'll give them that :p

[Adragontattoo]

its been around for awhile and I have used it probably more then any other DC project and I have teachers in the schools I work in using it in their lesson plans as well.

it might be considered one but i would rather use ghz to fold or crunch

Just out of interest, does this use CPU clocks or graphics clocks?

If it uses CPU I may try and find a way of shutting down one folding thread when my PC goes into screensaver mode.

I hate this program, totally hosed my internet connection.

Dont set it up to use BitTorrent.

That is the only thing I can think of that would hose a connection.

It uses all my upload, that's the problem haha.

CPU clocks. Had it running on an older laptop along with seti, switched to a blank screensaver and the RAC for the laptop doubled.
