Is (console) 4.00 final making anyone elses folding go slower? Mine dropped from 10 to 15 min/frame

that's rather odd notify.gif

 

my folding has sped up quite considerably because of 4.00.

Yeah well get this, on my other computer it jumped from 5 min/frame to like an hour and a half /frame bored.gif

 

EDIT: Ok nm, mine sped up too, I thought it was out of 400 frames like before, not 100. biggrin.gif

the wu shouldnt reset, it should remain on your comp till it is finished, smile.gif

remain on my comp?

 

so there are lots of unfinished wu's in the folder?

 

well all i know is if i dont shutdown propperly the wu looses all its work and resets, because there certainly not completing.

 

any help?

Are you using the graphical client, or the 4.00 beta console version in my guide?

 

If you're running the beta, you'll have to update to FAH4.00 official. I need to update that guide... again.

 

Also, what are your pc specs? Your system might be unstable which would cause the WUs to crash. When a WU crashes, fah usually sends whatever was completed back to the server and then it downloads a new one. Your stats are only showing 3 WUs sent back to the server, all of which were fully completed it appears.

hmm well i cant remember how to view my specs blush.gif

 

i started folding like in mabe july or august, so it isnt the latest one, just one of them from the list that mike said none of any from your quotes, my computer is a peice of junk anyway not supprised realy.

 

Now its gone and canceled the 1000 WU and gone back to another 400 one now, bah i dont know whats going on, it sure is pissing me off.

Problemo....

 

Meh well I've encountered my fair share of problems with F@H before but never this.

 

I recently finished a 500WU & when I connected to the net to send it my internet 'buggered' up so it didn't send but the next time I went on the net & I ran F@H & didn't send it.

 

So I checked the log file & this is what it says....

 

[21:34:58] + Attempting to send results

[21:34:58] - Couldn't send HTTP request to server

[21:34:58] + Could not connect to Work Server (results)

[21:34:58] - Error: Could not transmit unit 09 (completed Feburary 4). Keeping unit in queue.

[21:34:58] + Working...

 

Anybody know how & I can correct this & stop it happening in the future?

Hehe, sucker. I dunno how I managed to pass you. I'm pretty much only running f@h on 2 machines, and one of them is a slow ass 700 mghtz or some bullsh*t. Then mine is a amd athalon xp 2700+, and the other comp which is almost never on is a P2 2.2 or something. But hey, I ain't complaining Shifty41s_beerhatsmilie.gif

Here's a list of tags and what they do, but -betastream isn't on there. I'm guessing it has something to do with the beta clients, or beta WUs? Not sure.

thanx, that page helps. i saw the -betastream tag on another forums, and yeh, it has something to do with brand new, or experimental work units.

 

on another note, i just added another HT machine, 2 more processors for me. smile.gif

unusually for my comp it folded two WU's in two weeks rather than one WU in one month, i think it seems to be since i got the new F@H version

 

i only use the advmethods tag

 

any one have any idea how people can fold several WU's per day?

it could quite possible be the -advmethods tag and the the new F@H version.

 

but then again, you could quite possible simply have gotten an easy work unit, who knows?. some WU take a long time, and then there's one like the one i had the other day that finished in two hours!@? notify.gif . A serious WTF indeed

 

apart from the obvious (faster cpu) i don't know of anything that makes WU's fold extremely fast, nothing that makes a remarkable difference anyway. I myself fold several WU's a day on this machine, but it's a p4 HT which doesn't get turned off ever, so it's not exactly rocket science formula there.. nothing special bored.gif

 

you can make sure they're aren't any background programs running i spose, and alot of the reason people fold many WU's a day is because they have 2 or 3 processors, not just one computer.

this topic is over a year old, and is rarely browsed let alone posted in.

 

i'm sure that quite a few new members wouldn't mind folding, it's just that no doubt very few, if any of them are even aware the program exists...

 

...yes, despite the fact that it's pinned in general chat.

And we call them people "the sh*theads."

 

I mean common it does nothing to your computer, it uses un-used computer 'energy' yet some people would rather stand idly by while cancer & other diseases are getting worse & worse.

 

Morale: Fold you lazy f*cks!
