Hi.
Just out of curiosity, I can remember with the first version of fah I tried, back in the old windows 9x and XP days, whenever the work unit finished, it would create a big text file .gro file, then it would somehow compress it and make it a binary file and then send the results, when the work units are submitted now however, it includes all the files, the .EDR, .XPC and all the log files, and the .gro file.
Which one is the most important file, and why are all the files included?
Thanks.

Can I ask for what purpose are you asking this? Which of your children are the most important to you?
I know that while folding wudata_01.dat is your WU. It is possible that this file is being sent back alongside science.log and other files. However it si possible wudata_01.dat is extracted into other files, this process happens quickly and since no one who folds really cares about it, it is not well documented, as long as results reach the server.
