Having seen a topic or two recently about folding I realised that after moving to my present Mac I hadn't restarted my own folding. I also appear to had either lost or forgotten what the programs are called that I used. I went to VersionTracker and entered 'folding' then downloaded 'folding@home' which immediately found all my old info with my name (voodoopenguin) and the team of 38910. So far so good but now some questions.
I have a 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo so is the program 'folding@home' the best program to use as Activity Monitor shows that I am only using one processor?
If there is another program I should be using can it run at the same time while the current protein finishes or can the current protein be transferred to the new program or should I wait for this one to finish then start the next protein with the new program?
I seem to recall that I could look up the value of my protein somewhere but where?
I've found that I can access some of my statistics by clicking on My Statistics in folding@home but i seem to remember another site that gave more detail. Where is that?
That's it for now.
