View Full Version : Distributed Computing
Hi,
Any of you guys do any distributed computing projects like Folding@Home etc?
Im currently doing BOINC (http://boinc.berkeley.edu) and in particular the Malaria Control project, Rosetta@Home and PS3Grid (which uses your GPU for mega unit crunching powah)
I'm doing F@H for the OcUK team, using the NVIDIA GPU folding applet. Makes good progress, but they haven't quite sussed the 'idle' concept so I do find I have to hit pause whenever I'm off doing other stuff that use the GPU (games playing or watching DVDs as I use the Nvidia PureVideo decoder)

I've switched from F@H to Rosetta due to stability issues with the SMP clients. Currently battling it out with magman for the top RAC for the OcUK team.
I've done the same as Bigstan, though I've retired half of my fleet so my output isn't great. Some of it will probably be put back at some point.
I used to, though my Athlon isn't worth folding on any more, especially with the amount of extra power the bloody thing uses sat at 100% load 24/7.
