21s/frame seems incredibly quick and not consistent with the throughput I can get. My best performing project, #1495, 'Min. Time' per frame is 4mn 56s!!! Nothing like 21s/frame, so something is amiss here. @Sparky/Jimwah, please explain?

Once the nostalgia of the GUI wears off, try running the console version as a background service. It gives a little more performance apparantly and is less distracting. You can monitor the progress of multiple instances via a program call FahMon, available here: http://fahmon.silent-blade.org/. There are others too, but this one I believe is the most popular (although I may be wrong here).

Perhaps the GUI will get more accurate the longer it runs :shrug: but yeah it doesn't sound like its working on the same scale as the text-only client (eg 100 Frames, each varying from a few minutes to an hour or so, depending on the type of unit it's folding) - I think people have mentioned similar occurences with the SMP GUI reporting funny frame times. I think the majority of us use the text-only client, often installed as a service, and could easily help you out setting that up :up:

The time/frame that the GUI reports is never comparable to the time/frame that the console reports. You have to look in the FAHlog to be able to tell us anything useful when using the GUI client.

The numbers of frames in the GUI client varies from about 50 to 50,000 (the highest I've seen). My 2.65GHz A64 does about 4 seconds / frame on the 50k work units. Others are almost an hour for a frame. I like the GUI client on this machine since it is the easiest to shut down for gaming.

The console client installed as a service (like in the directions in my sig) doesn't need shut down when gaming. It will just fall to the background and not affect the game at all, and automatically keep going after the CPU is free again. I play games with the CPU client running all the time :)

Likewise, although occassionally there are some side effects when I first start a game.

from the logs i see about 17 minutes for 50 frames
so thats about 34sec for 1 frame,still normal?

Hello all, just signed my old rig up for this program. p4 3.2ghz with 6800gs pci-e. is the gpu client an addition to the regular version, or is it a one-or-the-other type deal?

Ah, your out of luck along with myself my friend. The gpu client does not include Nvidia cards, only ATI. We have to run the cpu client and thats all we get. Thanks for joining.

Thank you :)

I'm in

QX6700 now dedicated to the task 24/7

:wave: Welcome aboard mate :up:

Welcome new folders!

I've decided to join the F@H team with a few of my computers.

I have a Conroe system running at 3.8ghz, a Merom laptop, and a newly built Home Server which is running a beta version of Microsoft's upcoming Windows Home Server.

Is the F@H client friendly to servers? I will try it out but if it doesn't, I won't bother.

I'm excited to help out the team and the greater good. Thanks to the leaders of this within XS!
