Default Re: Folding @ Home

That's kinda' cool! Been doing it for a little less than a month now and they're (the Folding WU's) a lot more processor intensive than SETI@home by far.

Been crunching them on a Dual Xeon 3.06 GHz box and all I have is 38 WUs! It's kinda' funny how those new Xeons show up as 2 processors each. I have 4 copies running on the box and only 2 processors.

However, the fun is almost done... Gotta' prep the box for SQL Server production right after Christmas - I'll probably run it on another box or two but not near the results as the Xeons. Maybe some others want to join as well. The team is almost in the Top 100!!!!
