I have a couple of questions that I did not see at the folding website.

1. How much bandwidth does it take up? I ask this because being on SAT connection I am limited to 200Mb for every 4 hours. ya I know it sucks, but that FCC for you!

2. Does it download a work unit, and your computer works it out, then sends it back? This is what I have gathered so far.

Thanks.

That sucks with the 200Mb cap per 4 hrs...

Bandwidth will NOT be an issue. A work unit can be up to 500k or so (max I've seen so far), and you only download one at a time. Most work units take at least a day to do (usually more if monstrous), some very small ones can be done in half a day or so.

The big ones take about a day and a half for me, so I know I won't be anywhere near the bandwidth limitation.

As soon as you finish your first workload...and it successfully uploads the results to the server.

Its pretty quick from what I've seen.

WOOHOOO

Thats 13 folders for Overclock.net

Can we get 7 more? I know some of you guys can swing it, it doesn't slow anything down!

With the core priority not changed, you will not notice any difference in the way your system performs. I game every evenning with my rig...and I dont notice a bit of difference! (cause games take a lot of cpu...thereby dropping the folding activity to nil)


The bottom line is...GET OFF YOUR BITS AND START FOLDING!

Dont make me get angry...

GIT R DONE!!
