Figure about two finished work units a day. That number goes down the more you use the system.

i have been running it all day and ive only gotten 80/100

it has been running nonstop but somebody is always on my comp. doing something so that might have been part of the problem, after i finish this 1 im going to restart and just let it run for the weekend since i will be pretty busy so i wont have alot of time to get online.

you can finsh more work units by not using the screensaver
and minimizing console to taskbar. i get 3 or 4 wu done in a
24 hour period

sweet!

no more screensaver for me! i always have it minimized to taskbar, if i open it it will go back down in like 10 minutes.

Welcome aboard Drew....
You should get about 2 WU'S in a 24hr period with your Cel900.

i'm almost done with my 23rd wu and so far all have been
100 frames.I have read somewhere that some wu's are
4000 frames

I believe that the 4000 wu thing was fixed with the newer releases of the client/core_65. I think they did it to make crediting easier, but there were checkpointing problems and the folding directories were hitting 40+MB in size, so they cut it back to 100 frames. Pretty sure 100 frames is the standard for all of the new proteins now. If you have one of the early core_65's you may still be getting the 4000 frame proteins as the number of frames is handled on your end by the client. The work is the same either way.

I agree. Since completely dumping F@H 2.12 and installing 2.15 all of my WUs have been 100 frames. At first I thought it was the server that issued the WU that determined frames but since starting 2.15 I have recieved work from about 8 different servers and still all are 100 frames.
