I was wondering what cores that F@H uses work best on which CPU cores. Like making a list with how much time it takes to start and end a WU and at what CPU speed it did it at.

EX...

Amber Core
User 1 Name : Amd Cpu Speed : Total time
User 2 Name : Intel Cpu Speed : Total time

Gromacs...

And so on...

I'm just doing thos for my own interest, but I was thinking about cross referenceing it against the folding farm spreadsheet (located here , thanks OSUguy98) to see what gives you the biggest WU bang for your buck. Any comments, questions, good/bad idea etc?

Yeah, that sounds like a pretty useful thing, but i would think that i would be pretty difficult to compile a complete list... you'ld need a [H] folder with at least every single on of the many cores out there. It deffinatly sounds useful, though. Intresting idea... and if it gets going , i'll help out by submitting what information i can.

I dont have any logs of the amber or tikers at the moment.
I was getting 30min and 49 secs per frame on the large gromacs though, this is on an mobile xp @ 2.52.

 
Cool... Thought it'd be a flakey idea... guess not. :)

I think we have a rather large selection of Cpu classes/speeds... depending on what b0xen have been b0red/farmed by users. Just from reading these forums I've seen everywhere from p1-233mmx to A64/P4EE's. I plan on getting another 1800+ along with the two in my sig, along with pushing those two a little more. Can't help but tweek everything I get my hands on.

I can't find the point values for the F@H cores anywhere... I know stanford has them, but I cant find it on their site, can anyone shoot me a link?

Points are for the WU not the cores, the cores are the tools to proccess the WU. ;)
Here is a link to point values. http://vspx27.stanford.edu/psummary.html

Good Luck!

 
Thanks, bookmarked... exactly what i was looking for.

(edit: And I just found out I'm crunching a 600 pointer on my usb drive on a 1.2ghz Celeron at school.)
 
If you use EMIII, you can track the points value of each protien...... In fact, I have a little over a years worth of data from EMIII for the 8 or 9 processors I've had running.... I'm mailing myself the latest file from my home PC to work (where I have the spreadsheet with all the data), so once I get it updated, I could send it to you or link it like I did the other spreadsheet....


Keep on Folding!!

 
What we need is someone with l33t web skilz to put together a website with a form for people to enter project #, system specs, and time per frame. All that information can go into a database and spit out points/ghz on each core, compare OS information, etc.

Anybody up to the challenge? I would do it myself, but y'all would have to wait till summer when I'm on summer break from school.
 
I lack the web skills.... but I have the Excel knowledge (well... okay.... more patience with it than anything)...


The only problem with building a database like that would be OCed systems.... I only have one stock system in my house.... and the 2 here at work are stock.... But I guess that brings up the question:

Is a P4 2.4C OCed to 3.0 equal in folding (a given protein) as a stock P4 3.0C?
Is a Sempron 2200+ (1.5GHz) OCed to 1.67GHz the same as a stock Sempron 2400+?
etc
etc...

I would think that by pushing the front side bus, they will not be exactly equal. The database would have to account for frontside bus speed as well. (Or HT speed on Athlon64)
 
maybe just ask for the official chip name (i.e. A64 3400+) and list the stock GHz and FSB.... and the OCed GHz and FSB?

Sweet!! you've got about 200 more WU documented....

I have almost 1900 WUs documented.... I'll play around with your info today in my spare time here at work....

edit--Doh! guess I can't.... can't copy/paste the info....
edit#2--nevermind... I just saved the source and imported it into Excel.... editing the html out now.....

Keep on Folding!!
