I can only picture an image from Mariokart when I consider HWC passing us. Does anyone have a banana peel?

sure you can leave it downloading while folding/crunching..the only time f@h or WCG uses bandwith is when they are downloading/uploading results and leaving something download won't affect that so no worries

Absolutely, whenever I'm downloading it's an excuse to leave the rig on for WCG/F@H as well. Bandwidth usage is so small that it has no impact

Now we're talking! To arms everyone!

The CPU client is the biggest source of network traffic, and over the past few days mine have averaged 15-25 minutes for downloading at around 130 KB/s or so which seems to be limited to that speed by Stanford. This will only happen once the current unit is complete and you're getting a new one, so every 20-48 hours (or longer) depending on your CPU and how much you leave it on.


As for team production, we've clawed our way back up to 740k PPD, and will be pushing higher if my bigadv work units have anything to say about it. I noticed Bogmali has possibly lost both of his, which is very odd that both, and not just 1, are exhibiting issues. If he does lose them, that's roughly an extra 120k in points thrown away. HWC however had no trouble with their bigadv units today as they crush another day with 1+ million points. To counter this I've put my head down and I'm running full tilt, and I'm not stopping for hell or high water. Also, I think I will be adding more overused cliches into my posts just because I can.

Pie!

Tonight we start out with animal007 earning his first milestone, kicking off what I hope is a long folding career. Hopefully we'll see your name up here again, but until then we have nflesher filling out the night with his 1 millionth point, membership into the F@Hmillionaire club and a spiffy new badge. Congrats guys.

well i got my PS3 setup just waiting on good news about a router for basically free then ill have my PS3 and PC contributing to the F@H team and once gpu 3 client hits ill have 2 5850s to add up as well

 

[bogmali]

grats to Nate for his first million and animal.

 

[NastyHabits]

Congratulations to nflesher and animal. Anytime you get a 1 plus a bunch of zeros is cause for celebration.

The day ends with us pushing all the steam out of our hardware as we can. Not only because steam is bad for computers, but because HWC has closed to within 20 hours of passing us. Its likely that by the time pie gets handed out tomorrow we will have been surpassed. We spiked almost 90k today in production, but alas it seems to only prolong the outcome.

However we are still pushing hard for the top 25, and I have every reason to believe we'll simply become the thorn in HWC's side. We aren't done with them yet, nor are we done with this pretty little thing called folding.

Tonight's milestones are short and to the point. Adulaamin deftly snags his 25k milestone and looks to be setting a good pace to earn his folding badge in good time. Rounding out the milestones with a lofty 8 million points. I can't say enough things about that total, but one smiley does fairly well at summing it up.

Cheers to the two of you, and the team as well.

yea it seems those of us who fold daily are pushing our hardware to the limit. we need more folders!

 

[crazyeyesreaper]

im waiting on a router like i said PC + PC3 i should hit 3000ppd not much but it helps and if gpu 3 client was out id hit 25k+ ppd if i was lucky

 

[Mindweaver]

My little 9600gt is folding as hard as it can.. lol I'm really kicking myself for not picking up a GTX260 when they were cheap....

 

[hat]

I'm closing in on the 600k milestone myself

I have all of my cards overclocked to there max stable clock... If needed i can pull a CPU or 2 off of WCG and fold on it(maybe take the X2 240@3.6ghz and E1500@2.8ghz for folding)
btw 2mill coming for me soon

 

[Mindweaver]

I just hit 400,000!

Good Job to all the stoners!

Milestones Today
hertz9753 passes 5,000,000

Mindweaver passes 400,000

MStenholm passes 700,000

NastyHabits passes 1,000,000

p_o_s_pc passes 1,800,000

 

[El Fiendo]

We're really making them work for it guys. They've been slated to overtake us 'in just under a day' for over 24 hours now. As I write this, the difference is only 32,000 with a time to overtake of 3.8 hours, so it likely won't be much longer. But I do enjoy making sure they had to fight tooth and nail to finally succeed us. Part of this last bout of resistance has been that we've pulled out another day around 830,000 points. Good show guys.

Pie!

Tonight's milestone achievers are strutting their millionaire status about, first with Nasty habits whose earning millionaire status tonight with his first million points. Coming back to the table is hertz9753 with his 5 millionth point, and the corresponding milestone. Aside from these two, we can see that Mstenholm is closing in on millionaire status, and POS is about to gain F@H multimillionaire status. Congrats to all.

 

[p_o_s_pc]

come on people doesn't someone have something up there sleeves?if/when they do pass us i don't think it will be for long they will be seeing our backside again

 

[hat]

Yeah, we've been ahead of them all this time, just because we let them pass us for a few days doesn't mean we lose

 

[crazyeyesreaper]

well if i get lucky and get a router my 1500-2300ppd from my Phenom II coupled with 600-900ppd from my PS3 (with router) and im sure if i tried i could get another 8-10k from my 5850s from time to time so i should be able to contribute 15k ppd depending on what happens granted i cant maintain it but it might be enough to help

if i overclock the living hell out of all my parts i might be able to hit 18-20k ppd for a short while but again nothing i can maintain long term

 

[p_o_s_pc]

I just added my GTX260 to the force. and sadly they passed us

 

[3volvedcombat]

Hey in new to the folding team and already got 4,500 folding pionts under the belt. My second GTX 260 cant overclock so well, but at least i got that bish fodling at 7,500PPD. Also
My second 192 core GTX 260 will be doing 8,000 PPD 24/7 while my first one games. But im ganna pump a couple of WU's threw it first.

Hopefully, i can get to 1,000,000 pionts in the future. Might start folding with a unsuspecting 9600gso around my house to. and a 8400gs just for the luls

EDIT***
Second 260(192core) is doing 8,400 PPD
First 260 is doing 7,800 PPD Just took it a while to round it up a bit.

Run a VM for the P-II 940 and you will see 4k-5k PPD.
