Folding Forum

Yes I've done a fresh installation after an uninstall with "purge" flag.

It didn't work but, some days later, folding is available again.

Is this because I have now only four cores running and gpu off?

Thanks guys, I've tried every hint, but seems I could not fold anymore.

Moved topic to forum for issues with CPU folding from GPU - j Hello, since yesterday I could not fold anymore. Can somebody help me? I haven't touch anything... 21:14:17:Read GPUs.txt 21:14:17:Removing old file 'logs/log-20201106-224908.txt' 21:14:17:******************************* libFAH *********...

How does does the cpulimit command affect efficiency? If it causes a lopsided effect on folding speed, due to poor thread synchronizaion, then it might not be a good idea to use. Efficiency goes down: time for finishing job is circa X 3 (depending on final parameter you set from the command line). ...

Well, you can, but that requires programming in Wait states or other non-productive code. But basically F@h falls into the "compute-bound" type of process, it has calculations always ready to be done with limited amounts of other types of processing that would cause it to wait on. The cli...

Seems to be an interesting point of view on Computer Science: you can't slow down a process because of it executes forever and ever at the maximum speed CPU (aside voltage and clock configuration) can run.

While 80-90C isn't high for a CPU, it is for the other parts inside a nuc. The nuc is basically your restriction. Sometimes, when removing the top of a nuc, a 120-140mm case fan can be mounted on top of some NUC cases, to provide extra airflow (a 12V fan plugged into a USB port, operating at 5V is ...

Also, can you please describe how you think you have setup your system? Please note that the instructions are for default settings with the assumption being that those who change the default, are knowledgeable enough to "map" the information presented here to their own system. Yes, fahcon...

Welcome to the F@H Forum ronnieross, If you wanted to share your system configuration and F@H settings, you can post the log file. Details are here if you need it: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=26036 I've take a look in /var/lib/fahclient as mentioned in the site but the directory is empty: where have I...

Thanks ALL. Can't quote but I have read that 80-90°C seems not to be an issue for my CPU . Good. Anyway I want to challenge myself finding the way to regulate the charge on the CPU (I've just bought a Barebone Intel NUC NUC10i7FNH I7-10710U, Intel UHD Graphic - running on Ubuntu Mate 20.04LTS). I'm ...

Hello, I'm trying to refresh my Unix skills (from 30 years ago) in order to slow down my CPU that is working at 80/90°C during fah calculations, on my linux Mate PC, even with Folding Power set to "light" in Fahcontrol. I do remember there was a tool called nice (and another called renice)...
