Q9400 Folding - Please help quickly to get it folding!

Hi all,

I have someone that would like to help with some folding but my knowledge is sadly outdated. I'm going to get back into it also soon.

What is the best (quickest, most efficient) way to fold as a service on a Q9400? Flags? Best way to set them?

Help!

Thanks!

Here you go.

You are awesome - first view to the thread gave me exactly what I needed. Thanks zodac!

More questions - it looks like that computer will only produce about 600-1000 PPD. Seems a little low for a quad core even though it isn't the latest and greatest.

I am using the "big" option along with advmethods and smp -4

Ideas?

You're probably using FahMon... right? It doesn't calculate bonus points. You need to give my application, HFM.NET, a spin. Here's a couple sites:

http://www.hfm-net.com (work in progress - though very little here lately)

http://code.google.com/p/hfm-net/

Ahh, I've been out of the game waaaaayyyyy too long I was just using the extreme oc stats page and got to thinking. I'll search around the forum to see how bonus points are awarded, etc.

By the way, I just did some digging - nice work on your app! Makes me really want to get back into things again...

This application is the best out there for F@H monitoring. I use it at every site I have machines

Thank you! Thank you! No applause necessary. Nice tools make Folding more fun... for sure. Who the heck wants to look at a plain text file?

@pik - if you can upload xml files to a server you have public access to, you will soon be able to monitor all those instances of HFM in one "master" instance. Again, I said monitor, not change. I've been working on code, nearly complete, that will let you merge the grid data (same data used to build the HTML files) into another instance of HFM.

So if you have 5 remote instances of HFM and want to view all their clients' progress in one instance at home... you'll be able to do that through use of the xml files.

Oooh... will that be in v0.5.5, or a later one?

How do you configure the program?

Actually, don't let that v0.5.5 confuse you... it's just an intermediate number I threw in there while developing. The version I release will likely be v0.6.0. I've done waaaayyyy too much already to call the next version anything but a minor version upgrade.

Oh, yeah... you didn't really ask that. Yes, I've got to finish up the code but that feature is about half done. I just moved over to the SQL backend project you've seen me post about for a while b/c I had to take some time to figure out where I can going with this "xml merge" feature, and I think I know now what I need to do to complete it. It's been something I've wanted to do / been on the request list for a long time.

That's a pretty broad question... can you be more specific about what you're trying to do? HFM is built to be pretty simple. Point at a folder and go.

Are you the one who just posted in the Google Group?

Please respond in the HFM.NET thread here on OCF... I don't want to jack OSUmaxx's thread anymore.

Do we have an ETA? It's been sooo long since I updated HFM.

Taking this over to the HFM thread...
