also with only 1500 parts to your WU you will only get small points. most of the WU i get are in the 5,000,000,000 in size, but i do allow for larger then 5M files too on all of my systems even my old laptop.


5 billion frames?! My work comp wouldn't be finished by this time in 2015. Hell, it took me 3 days to finish up a 5 thousand frame unit.


Question time: Why the hell is mine sitting on "Attempting to get work packet" still? It's been that way since yesterday afternoon. It completed while the site was having that 15 minute update.. so I'm hoping it didn't glitch itself by trying to turn itself in at that time.

I WANT my points from the 5k WU dammit!

it typically takes me about a week or more to complete a WU of that size.... ill get the exact size of the one on my laptop when i get home. off to lunch.

If I get a five billion frame WU I'm uninstalling the folding software. I have a feeling that singdall is dlsexixd.

186 is my points? Oh..... Smiley: laugh

I'm chill I'm chill.. it's just that points are all that really matters in this world of ours. Points points points points points points points. You can do anything with the right points.

I helped cure Parkinson's today with my points.

That's right. 186 points. You did a pussy WU.

Man up and crank those settings.

Then again, so did Allahimself: 30 Allakhazam 186 1

And I know he's got a good rig.

I think it's set to max Smiley: confused

If the bar's all the way to the right under "Advanced" then it is, eh?

Just sent out a corp wide e-mail about it, by the way.. told them to reply if they plan on running it and I'll give them the Team number. I added in a sob story about how my grandfather died from Parkinson's a few years back so hopefully everyone will sign up Smiley: grin

sadly with the finstall script i can not tell how large the package is i am working on with my game box. i do have 2 F@H running on this computer at the same time though. thus the status 1 and 2, one for each core of my CPU.

nice the more the better. once my laptop and 2 iMACs finish some cores, that will add 4 more CPUs, yes that is not bad math.

laptop = 1CPU
G5 = 1 CPU
Intel = 2 CPUs (it is a dual core duo)

Slower computers get higher scores per work unit, but complete less work units.

So we're being scored based on how hard we try, not how much work we get done.

K, I'm starting up my old PIII 600mhz tonight.

FAQ Scoring Answer

FAH FAQ wrote:
How do you decide how much credit a work unit is worth? How do you determine how many points a work unit is worth? Before putting out any new work unit, we benchmark it on a dedicated 2.8GHz Pentium 4 machine with SSE2 disabled (more specifically, as reported by /proc/cpuinfo on linux: vendor_id : GenuineIntel, cpu family : 15, model : 2, model name : Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.80GHz, stepping : 9, cpu MHz : 2806.438, cache size : 512 KB). This machine runs linux, so all WUs are benchmarked with the linux core.

We plug the results of this into the following formula:

points = 110 * (daysPerWU)

where daysPerWU is the number of days it took to complete the unit. This equation was chosen to match the points for previous Gromacs WUs to the previous point system. The upshot is that Tinker WUs will be worth more than before we set up the new points (i.e. before April 2004).

Please note that the very concept of a reference machine will mean that some WU benchmarking will vary from the performance on your machine. Even between P4s, there are significant differences in architectures over the years. Moreover, variations between FAH WUs can also lead to differences in benchmarking points.

Our goal is consistency within a given definition of a reference machine setup (described above), but beyond that the natural variation from machine to machine and WU to WU will never allow any point system to perfectly reflect what you get on your machine.

Add another one of the admins to this list. I've had family die of some of these diseases so it's going on two of my boxes. And a rate up or two from me...


And before I forget, I stickied it as well. Well done Kael. Well done.
