Fastest Folders - All proteins

Amran · 14th January 2002, 3:17 AM

Here at OCAU we have a competition called the Fastest Folders. It is open to anyone who paricipates in the Folding@Home 2 distributed computing project.

Check out the official list here:

The Fastest Folding Machines Web Page!

As you have probably noticed, the web page has not been updated for some time. This is due in part to my ISP's tech issues but it's got more to do with the fact that I am a big phat lazy bastard with shitty luck. So, my deepest apologies for just kinda dissapearing for a while there, but I had my reasons and I can assure you they were good ones. Bad Things happened.

Don't worry, I haven't stopped folding.

I am now working on the page again, re-writing it and trying to get some sort of program to make up the tables as I was spending about an hour a night updating last time. Expect it to be ready within the month, probably before that but I'm allowing myself some time to breathe. I also want to investigate into the possible differences of proteins with the same name but I have a feeling the differences are quite small.

In the meantime, fold on!

I see what you mean Teddy2, I wonder if there are differences?

This is a deadset shocker, but I've got 4 of these old machines on the job now here at work - all between PII350 and PIII450. Should have quite a few more online by the end of the week.

Mine was done at a CPU speed of 1.67 Amram. Unlike the Villin, I was able to run this one with a CPU Overclock....

Just wanted to clear that up so noone thought "How did he get that quick with 1533?"...

Notice the different workunit no's .. Do they make a difference to crunch times??

Although I notice the Atoms are the same
