Looking at your stats today, I noticed that your are uploading 480 point WU's, which means you are running a GPU client? If so, what card and PPD are you getting?

Also, its good to see Pcmech's total PPD up quite a bit from a few weeks ago.

Must confess; After lurking at the Folding forum and reading about the crazy PPD
folks were getting. I said " hallelujah Jesus I have seen the Light"
Went online to NewEgg and put 2 9800GTX+ on the Visa.


when they are working right I'm finishing a Wu every { 2hr. & 2 min. }
giving me @ 5280 PPD per card.

Things were great for the first day & 1/2; since midday sat things have ground to a stand-still . Collection servers at Stanford are totally hosed.
Queues on both boxes are clogged. Some wu's have 20+ failed upload attempts.

Had to shut down last night, to keep from writing over stored Wu's

Brought the boxes back online this morning, and have accumulated over 20 failed upload attempts so far.

So you bought the cards just for folding?
That's dedication.

Funny, that's not the word my wife came up with


I tried to rationalize it to myself that it was cost effective
to bring another Linux rig online would have been 3 times the cost for 1/2 the PPD

that's my story and I'm sticking to it
