Blimey! Calm down ladies and gents, it's only a temporary lack of WUs over the holiday period! I get less hassle at work when there's a lack of overtime on offer! (Though the suggestion that R@H may _never_ come back is gloriously over the top, I agree).

Personally I will be devoting all my resources toward eggnog@home just as soon as I find out what it is. Happy New Year! ;)

*bakerlab.org* is not good as an URL mask. Consider:

http://www.malware.com/bakerlab.org/malware.js

It would be excluded from protection. A security risk.

As a rule of thumb, URL addresses must not contain leading asterisks. Change it to:

srv?.bakerlab.org*

Cheers.

How about this:

4 hrs... 24 models;
12 hrs... 72 models;

... making predictor of the day,
... priceless!

You see Rosetta needs 10,000-100,000 models crunched for most proteins and methods of study in order to have meaningful results. If you crunch 3 tasks in 12 hours, or 1, you are still going to have about 72 models (all other things being equal as to type of protein you are crunching etc.).

G'day paulcsteiner

There used to be a 4 day limit, but they changed it to 1 day as they were getting the 1% stuck bug, which was causing a lot of trouble.

As for the difference between the amount of hours per WU and science done, minuscule if anything at all, it would only help with bandwidth.

More WU's less time or more time less WU's it adds up to the same amount of models/decoys (science) done*.

Even if they implemented an algorithm that took your last models/decoys into account in the search space, it's such a big search space, one computer can't effectively do enough to make any meaningful difference (I'm guessing).

Edit: spelling, and a bit more spelling, and to try to make it readable.
Edit: *this isn't exactly accurate, as different WU's have different calculation times per model/decoy but it's the best I could do, without going into the different credits for different WU's etc... I hope it helps anyway.

Ah, my apologies for asking this in the wrong place. I didn't realize there was a better place for my question.


Edit: Wow, I just looked at my results for the first time. I didn't realize I was erroring on so many WUs. Any idea what's going on?

Hi Paul,

although I am at best a novice and far from wise or great: Yes, it refers to one single core. So you have to multiply with the number of cores/cpus to get the overall performance of your machine.
