1) Questions and Answers : Getting started : What size are returned results? (Message 57251) Posted 26 Nov 2008 by Reddog99 Post: Excellent! Thanks, Mod.Sense. It sounds like BOINC & Rosetta are just what I need. As long as no big results files appear suddenly, I'll be in good shape. Thanks again, Pat
2) Questions and Answers : Getting started : What size are returned results? (Message 57241) Posted 26 Nov 2008 by Reddog99 Post: Hi, I'm new to BOINC & Rosetta and I'd like to know how large the returned work units are, and how often they get uploaded. I realize that this is probably a highly variable statistic, but a range would be useful. The reason I'm asking is that my ISP has a cap on upload bandwidth (5 gig/mo.) and I have been having trouble staying under this limit while running F@H. For this reason I am being forced to abandon F@H and find another distributed computing project that isn't quite so bandwidth intensive. The current F@H CVS work units return about 20 mb each, and over a period of a month, this adds up to "over-my-limit". I am currently running an 8-core Mac Pro and a homemade 4-core Q6600 pc. Thanks for any help! Pat
