my math

this new protein has been out about 1 day, roughly


Total structures generated so far: 307,852,995
Goal number of structures: 10,000,000,000



doesn't that mean we will finish in about/roughly
30 days?
not a few months as some have guessed?

Oh that really sux !!!

FAST protein for 30 days...
Ars has a gauntlet for 30 days...

Hmm... Does someone see any similarity here? ;)

I smell something fishy... :rolleyes: :p

:|punch|: :)

xj10bt is still snoozin'. :sleepy:

With a really fast protein, the longer it takes for xj10bt to get moving, the better it is for FoBoT.

It takes a LONG time to get a HUGE monster like that moving.
Give him time, I'm sure he's just warming up...
He'll kick in and we'll be smooth sailing in no time :D
And if he don't, we can always sic Dyyryath on him ;)
I'll pass him in 25 days at this rate, and I KNOW he won't sit still for that, nope, not one bit ;) :D

i need to figure out a way to setup something like the SETIQue
like an intermediate proxy

i wish the bandwidth requirements for this project, especially on fast proteins wasn't so high :/

i just read through the readme file for the "Distributed Folding Project Update Daemon"
seems to me it might be easy enough to convert that to two way? so that it not only downloads, but it can also be pointed at to upload?

might have to go over to the DF forum and run that up the flagpole :)

I've been having the same thoughts. Channelling output through a proxy would be a Good Thing™.

I've tried it several times.
So far, it only worked one time on one computer. :(

it has been less than one week and we are over 10% finished
