Setting up Rosetta@home

[ShootStraight]

Depending on how long you've been running, you can expect your Avg credit to continually rise as I believe it is a 10 day moving avg.

Otherwise, I'd recommend goingthru your options and checking the "compute while computer is working"(if you dont experience any problems) flag and removing from memory.

Rosetta has moved to a fixed credit system (approx 2 credits per decoy I believe) so the only way to get more credit is to crunch more decoys. You may run an optimized client if you wish, but it wont assist in getting more credit directly, although it is useful in tuning your system.

As a side note, if you do run an opti and hope to participate in other XS team endeavors, I would recommend that you have a copy of the standard client (or a calibrated optimization) as some projects have expressly stated the wish for everyones use of a standard client.

Changes appear to be in the works to make a fairer b-mark but it could take a bit.

HTH.

Can I ask what is Rosetta and folding?

Can I ask what is Rosetta and folding?

Sure.

Rosetta is doing medical research similar to folding, however they are run by different people.

Rosetta is run through a client called BOINC and Folding is run by the Folding@Home Client.

If you want a more detailed response, i believe Wiki would be of more help.
