2 questions......

1) how do you add up the folding power in GHz of all the machines under your account if they are AMD? do you add up the actual Ghz of the cpu (like a 2400+ runs at like 2.1Ghz) or the intel comparison (the 2400+)

say you have 2 computers both running AMD Athlon 2700+ (2.17Ghz). would the total cpu power be 4.34GHz or 5.4ghz?

2) is there a way to "pause when done" a text-only client? i have 2 hard drives in my dually machine and when i re-installed the OS i put it on the second drive by mistake and now have a total of 4 clients on one machine. 2 per cpu. i only want one per cpu but don't want to waste the other WU's. is there some way keep it from downloading a new one when its done so i can delete the other 2 clients?


thanks!

Personally I would use the actual processor speed and not the Intel equivalent.

in your f@h folder, i believe you can just copy everything in there and as long as it has saved recently, you could just throw all of those files into the folder of the one you r keeping after it finishes it's next one. then it will pick up where the other client left off.

Just the work folder should be fine, as long as you already have a copy of the core. (The right one as well, numbers must match.)
