Is it just me or...

Is is just me or does the F@H 5 client appear to fold faster than version 4? Anybody else notice an increase?

Yeah, I seem to save about 30 seconds to 1 minute per step on the larger units that usually took me 9-9.5 minutes a piece.

I have utterly no idea. I don't even know if mine is folding and sending/recieving new WU's. Have them setup as services so I just let em fly *checks the Folding@Home stats page* Ya, guess I'm folding, no idea how fast though. That would be nifty though

My client certainly seems to be going much faster. It may just be the WU's I'm getting, but I'm glad that they are going at these higher speeds .

I'm with bigandy. I don't know if it's just he WU's I'm getting but I'm really going through all the ones I'm getting sent to me. I don't mind it, slowly but surely, I'm moving up the ladder. I think I"m at 66th or something. Yea Me!

I haven't looked through any logs lately, but I know the upgrade from FAH3 to 4 resulted in a bit faster folding times.
