the rosetta@home network supercomputing power is nearly 1.9 petaflops, completing nearly a million wu a day ;)
the number of tasks has come down from some 10 million tasks to 3.5 million

r@h would queue more of the larger molecules to explore the space more completely?
the large molecules sometimes returns only a single model in 3-4 hours on a pi4

New tasks are made based on the results of the current tasks so that isn't always possible.

I wouldn't want to be the guy that boldly predicted Rosetta would run out of work :)

Note how, even though there are probably over a million tasks completed per day, the queue of work left doesn't decrease by a million per day?

Rosetta Moderator: Mod.Sense

the queue is 1,308,381 wu as of now,
Successes last 24h: 883,040
https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/
TeraFLOPS estimate: 1783.938
1.7 petaflops
we probably have a whole multi mega watts power station running jobs here lol

Pity that GPU can't be used here....

it seemed apps are coming for GPUs , for a different app in rosetta@home

i'm not really a fan of GPUs, they are power hungry, certainly

Yet since they can do more work than a CPU using similar amounts of power, they are much, much more efficient than CPUs for such work.
Efficiency isn't about instantaneous or maximum power consumption. It's about the energy used to to perform a given task over time.

But only certain kinds of tasks and in the past Rosetta has said they don't fit the way their workunits do things, they said they would look into it going forward but gave no promises.
