I just completed my first. I started yesterday, and left it running overnight on my iBook, and it completed sometime today. So give it time.

It could make your PB very hot, and it's needs to cool down now and then. Shut it down for a night once in a while. Or use a cooling pad under it or raise it from one side so that air can flow under it. The hotter a machine gets, working for a long time on its maximum temparature, will wear it down faster. It's also HD intensive, it stores its results every 15 minutes (you can adjust this in your prefs), so your HD doesn't go into sleep mode.iDM said:
Stanford has a time frame when they want the results back, a lot of people start folding and get sick of it very fast. When a WU isn't finished in time, they give it to someone else and you probably don't get credit for it. The time you calculated could be correct. Your PB isn't as powerfull for this kind of work as my G5. It depends on the processor and WU how long the WU is going to take. A WU could also have 400 frames (400 pieces of a big WU) this is instead of percentage which you now have (100% is one whole simulated and finished WU!).iDM said:
Yes! It's more efficient, your processor doesn't need to help simulate a fancy picture.iDM said:
Virginia Tech probably doesn't do folding, they rent their computing power to others. But this could be, you can install folding on super clusters. But, every processor has to fold it's own WU because folding is setup like this. It uses its own outcome to simulate its next step. In a supercluster it would go parallel, every processor has a little chunk and other computers puts it together to one big thing.iDM said:
