Ironically, I just wanted to keep using non-beta so my stats didn't get messed up.

[Zodiac]

I'm 80% done my first WU for the applenova team(It's HUGE!)

[Moogs]

Cool. Meantime, seems like when I first ran 5.02 I might've reformatted my support files somehow... and there are no suggestions immediately forthcoming so screw it. I went to 5.02 and replaced the old version. After a restart seems I didn't lose the 77% of (what I believe to be) WU 9, but I'm only going to get credit for 8 as it goes through I think.

Oh well, main thing is to help the cause. I'm going to submit a feature request of being able to close the damn "view protein" window once you're done with it. AFAICT the only way to get rid of it (and free up the processor cycles required to display it) is to quit the app.

[NosferaDrew]

Do you really think that displaying the protein takes up that many cycles?
I never thaought of that as being very processor intenstive.

I just minimize it.

[Moogs]

Well, if you're displaying stuff like the stick and ball models or the space filled, it constantly rotates and updates the protein, so I'm sure it takes up *some* horsepower. The main point being not that I don't like the window but that there's no reason to disable the Close Window widget; that way when you walk away from the computer the client gets 100% of the available cycles. I think mimimizing it wouldn't stop the machine from computing the protein updates, etc (so that when you maximize it it's showing the current progress state).

[NosferaDrew]

I see what you're saying and I agree.

I'm wondering when the Mac version will display the same info as the PC version and give you the same options:

[Wickers]

Just wondering...

Just how big is your current WU file (uncompressed)???

Mine is 1768165 (bytes?) large.

[_Ω_]

I just got this a few minutes ago....

[04:30:40] - Expanded 127886 -> 694597 (decompressed 543.1 percent)

but I have also had

[09:43:04] - Expanded 325536 -> 1760809 (decompressed 540.8 percent)[18:35:28] - Expanded 137092 -> 652001 (decompressed 475.5 percent)[19:41:57] - Expanded 196359 -> 956965 (decompressed 487.3 percent)[21:31:30] - Expanded 209424 -> 1004221 (decompressed 479.5 percent)

EDIT: Looks like we are about to break into the top 10% of teams....

That one above is "Expanded 1289857 -> 6672285 (decompressed 517.2 percent)"

And just who is cudaboy_71?
7 processors, huh?

You are going to force me to up the ante!

Welcome zodiac, good to see you finally made it!!

And murbot, you were meant to be my bitch

[alcimedes]

it's fun for me to goad people into doing more work on a project like F@H. the more the merrier.

You're going to brag about being able to beat up on my crippled old PC? lol

[Zodiac]

Horray! I was never on the list until I finished my first WU( It was huge and took a week or so)

[DMBand0026]

It's only crippled because you turn the fans off in order to kill it.

[xionja]

oh boy! I made it

[Zodiac]

Alright the threads a sticky! I can't believe I did something contributing enough for this! I feel so proud.

[Wickers]

I'm almost there...

I killed off the work computer... it was too slow. (another 8 days until WU compleation) I switched it's job to something more usefull of such a slow computer. . . it's now the shop's jukebox.

But I refuse to let my name not be on the list... so I setup a client on my home computer... and in only 12 hours I am about to finish my first WU. YaY!

But that's not all... if all goes acording to plan, I will have a dual P3 1ghz folding at my work in a few weeks. It just needs some more ram and a good server case...

I won't be in the top 5 of our team... but I still wish to help where I can.

[NosferaDrew]

I love your dedication to the team \/\/ickes!
Thank you.

Also, thank you zodiac for starting this thread and this group effort!

Welcome xionja, glad you are finally aboard.

cudaboy_71 is the guy who is going to spank you if you don't fold faster!!

Closing in on the top 3000 teams......

[Wickers]

Haha... my name on the stats page is '//ickes'. Lousy '\' not showing up.

Oh ho!
My nemesis appears!

Did you feel threatened by his smily face? You know what they say about people who smile too often....

<----evil maniacal smile

[NosferaDrew]

Heh.

Actually, I feel threatened by the seven processors that he has at his disposal.

I'll be getting a dual 2.5Ghz G5 soon - that will definitely help me and the team, but I'm also thinking about building a dedicated folding box to free up my other machines.

[LoCash]

Nova fah team stats now on front end. Enjoy.

[709]

That's super cool, Jack. Very nice.

You guys are starting to make me rethink my Team affiliation....

Can the letters be a little darker? I can barely see them and didn't notice them until I read post this a half hour after it was made.

[Gargoyle]

darker than black!?!

[LoCash]

THank Gargoyle, he wrote the Mambo module and associated scripts to collect and display team data on the front end

and the letters are all black, I don't know how you can't see them. I run a 1600x1024 resolution on a 17" widescreen display and I can read them fine... without my glasses.
