• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

    "The Score" and a bit of perspective

    This all assumes that all work units are equal, ie require the same amount of time to complete. The fact that the work units have a points value reflects that they are not the same. You can't say that doing 5 x 9 point work units at 4 hours each is worth more than 1 x 239 point work unit...

    F@H vs. Distributed Folding

    Thanks Larry. For those interested in the CASP series of projects, CASP6 is currently up and running. I know the Distributed Folding Team are planning an entry into CASP6 but it is not known at this stage whether they will be utilising the resources available with distributed computing or...

    F@H vs. Distributed Folding

    In standard mode it uses around 25MB of RAM, but runs at less than 50% of the speed available when using the extra RAM switch. With the current protein, RAM usage with extra RAM enabled is around 109MB. You can certainly run at the slower pace, but for production purposes it is a big hit to...

    F@H vs. Distributed Folding

    Yes, they can be run concurrently. Some members do this, then it is a matter of balancing out the CPU usgae, or giving priority to one over another. A bit of playing around is sometimes needed to get it the way you want. The key thing to be careful of though is RAM requirements. F@H does...

    F@H vs. Distributed Folding

    I do both of course but have a preference for Distributed Folding. DF is probably a more 'here and now' type of project with benefits that will be seen in the short term. Naturally I am part of the OCAU team for both projects but decided to answer your initial question as I realise DF does not...

    F@H vs. Distributed Folding

    Not sure if there is an answer available on the [H] or F@H sites, but this is an excerpt from a discussion on this same subject in the Distributed Folding forums. "F@H is asking the question, "How exactly do proteins fold, what's the process, what comes first?" DF is asking, "How can we...

    How do I run F@H without the icon?

    I'm not sure whether anyone has actually answered this for you yet. DGROMS from OCAU created a batch installer that would install FAH onto NT based machines as a service and with the various flags included. You can search the OCAU Folding page for this installer or perhaps someone here in...

    Where now for sneakernetters ?

    Find a Drug has limited sneakernetting abilities, you need to have the machine online to download a number of work units, then after they are all completed reconnect to upload. If you are looking for a human health related project that does support cacheing offline you may want to have a look...

    Dec Alpha workstation for Folding?

    I think you'll find Distributed Folding does have a client though, if you're willing to contribute the machine to medical research. From memory [H] even have a small team in that project.
