Folding Forum

I was surprised to see that iGPU slot added after debugging core interrupted issues happening since a few days (Basically deleted everything and reinstalled). I have a i7-8750H with that exact Intel UHD Graphics 630. Itself never managed to get any work so i set pause-on-start to True for the meanwh...

Thanks for creating the enhancement request, that would be good for old timers like us.

AFAIK, back in those days, not all WUs were QRB eligible thus, they didn't have the passkey attached to them which would explain why they don't show up when searching with the passkey/username combination. Yes that's right. I remember the first days of QRB bonus and I got about 1.55 million with th...

I had the same problem and it really sucks because I'm folding since may 2005 and for as far back as I remember, I always used a passkey but it only show 2.5 million out of 35 million points I had since 2005...

Do note that while the PPD for the Classic Client is significantly less* than that of SMP2, it still does some very important scientific work that even the SMP2/GPU can't do. If you are interested in the type of F@h Clients available and their "target audience" I would suggest that you re...

Since there are no changes or comments, I'll submit this to the PG.

IMHO, the guidelines will still be very useful even with the v7 clients. At most, we might have to edit them to follow the new trends but the core of the guidelines is there to stay. bruce summed it very well and I don't think it's a waste of time. With no new feedback to add, I think this set is co...

I have added a reference to a new source about deleting wu : viewtopic.php?p=164798#p164798. I have asked Vijay to make a statement to have a hardwritten reference. So far, I believe we are almost done so if after some days, nothing is added, I would strongly suggest you circulate this on all teams ...

You need a comment from PG saying that dumping WUs is bad? One would think the obvious logic of reality would suffice. Dumping a WU slows things down while we wait for that WU to expire and get reassigned. It can result in a delay of several months in the larger CPU WUs. :roll: But when logic escap...

Anyone ?

Thanks to everyone and especially PantherX for the comments and updates. The guidelines is shaping up to be a excellent reference for anyone having doubts about the best pratices and what is forbidden. About running SMP on 2-core systems or bigadv on 4C/8T systems, if the client allow it, it's permi...

Question Xilikon: the reference and link to the EULA update blog post were the same for items 2 and 3. Was this intentional? Yes, it was intentional since both refer to the same issue at the base, which is the distribution of F@H files by yourself. In addition, point 2 is about illegal installation...

This is in response to the recent events about a folder admitting of running a script to block unwanted workunits from being downloaded. Lots of comments defending him argue there are no defined set of rules against them. For them, no rules = not forbidden. The PG admitted the current problem is cau...

I know it's bad to delete a work unit in progress. However, I failed to see evidence about the reasons why it's bad... All I know that work units is created in a sequential fashion and deleting one will cause a delay for the next ones.

Is there are links from the PG commenting on them ?

Thanks for taking your time replying to the concerns outlined by the OP. This will show to everyone what you are working to improve on those issues and I'm sure it will get better and better with time (you are already on the right path since 2-3 years).
