I got a batch of a protein that I haven't seen before, and it also has a different core. The proteins are called LIF/pdblif1.14.xyz, and some others with different numbers. The core is FahCore_ca.exe. I don't see it listed on the protein summary page, I have no idea how much they are worth.

That is a genome work unit. The genome@home site has been down for a while, which makes research difficult.

Aaaah! Thanks. I wish I could change the thread title from "new" to "old".

You are having some very impressive numbers Welnic

Before the servers went down on Friday I loaded some extra tinker core work units to get me through the outage. Since then I have had most of my processors running two clients and most of the tinkers finished up in the last 36 hours. So it is a just a bump instead of sustainable numbers.

But I am now getting gromacs for all of the processors so that will help, though.

You mean you placed additional work units in your queue? If so, how did you do that?

The boxes that I did this on run linux with 2 2000MP Athlons. I run two copies normally so that both processors get used. I just added two more folders and copy the FAH3Console-linux.exe into them and then run that with the -local switch. So for a while I had 4 clients running on 2 processors. Then the gromacs core clients finished up and waited to get some more work, but the two new clients then just kept running.

When the original clients got more work, I stopped the new clients. Then I restarted them with -local -pause. The -pause means that after it uploads the finished work it asks if you want another. I just say no and my system is back to normal.

The readme for the linux version says that the -local flag doesn't work for linux. And it says that the -pause flag is for windows only. That seems to be outdated info.
