yes team 32.

thnx

out of curiosity, i am running right now at stock speed (1.2 athlon), browsing the forums, and listening to mp3's.

the folding monitor is predicting 18 hour completion time...

that sound about right?

thought it'd be less, but i guess the mp3 player is taking up 12% of cpu useage.

next question...must one complete the wu. or can you stop in the middle, reboot and pick up where you left off?

i'd reboot and hop up to 1481 if it'd let me...

[Kendan]

yes you can stop and it should start froom where it left off. Earlier versions had a problem with this but it was fixed in 2.15.
Fold on!!!

[SteenkyBastage]

good deal...

it has since moved down to estimating under 12 hours total time, so i guess the status monitor just isn't accurate.

looking down at my temps, i thought that folding must super stress the cpu, as my probe touching the side of the core reported 40.6C... found out i had forgot to hook back up my radiator when i re-assembled it about 2 hours ago...

anyhow, thnx for input, off to cool down the water and up the cpu..

Don't pay any attention to the folding monitor average time for your first work unit or after shutting it down for a period of time. At the speed you are running you should be getting about 4.5min/per frame or 7.5hrs for a villin. The folding monitors clock does not stop ticking when you shut it down. It builds up time on the frame you were working on and until you finish that frame it continues to climb. When you do complete the frame the average of course takes that huge number and combines it with the other completed frames to give a ridiculously high average time. The finish time is backing down because you are in fact folding at you correct fast speed but the finish time is directly computed from the frame average. This of course is my experience. Check it out for yourself and see what you get.:burn:
