Folding Forum

Having seen everything from v8.1 to the current v8.4, there is a lot present that was not there even in v8.3. The v8.4 Web Control interface is much more configurable, and provides a lot of WU tracking features. The default settings are a bit barebones for displaying current WU info, but additional ...

Welcome to the folding support forum. This GPU may already be supported if the PCI device ID matches what I was able to look up. AMD used the same number for a range of cards sharing the same GPU chip. The information I found online for the E9173 was that its device ID was 0x1002:0x699f . That is al...

The code for the Web Control is open source, someone with programming skills could take that as a starting point to create a different version. And some of what you mention wanting to see can be reached with just a few clicks from the Stats tab of the v8.4 Web Control. From the Account Settings the ...

It is strongly recommended to upgrade from V8.3 clients to the current public release version v.8.4.9. There have been some significant fixes, especially for clients running on Windows.

Well they just moved the v8.4.9 version from beta to being the pubic release. My understanding is the developer is going to start on a v8.5 version that may get released for beta testing sometime in the future. But that is the future, and no guarantees on when it might happen. In any case I created ...

Are you running on Windows? If so there is a known problem where Windows sends a signal to shutdown active processes and then does not wait long enough for the folding cores and client to exit. That can corrupt the checkpoints. Basically if running on Windows pausing all work before shutting down is...

Yeah, the data and log files are stored elsewhere and not part of the Uninstaller unless that was added recently. Along with the common files for use by the client such as config files and the folding core executables they are all in /Library/Application Support/FAHClient on the system disk. Unlike ...

Just stored on the server side in the assignment settings as far as I know. Sometimes mentioned in the project description or as part of being posted here during the beta test period

There are sometimes projects that are small enough to run on a single CPU core/thread, but not always. The projects may have a maximum number of CPU threads they will be assigned to, some others may have a minimum. But WUs within those projects can be assigned to any system whether single threaded o...

Persons who can add cards to the list may have overlooked the post, I will give them a ping.

I mentioned that in my first post, most calculations are single precision FP32 calculations with some double precision FP64 as needed. The actual calculations for folding are done in folding cores downloaded by the client and executing in their own processes. The client portion of the app installed ...

I don't know of any official enterprise level support. There has been some work in the past to create containers for deploying on servers, I am not current on that development progress. Also during expansion for COVID in the Spring of 2020 there was some discussion here and as I understand on the F@...

I am not surprised that the FP64 performance is similar on the UHD Graphics 730 to an i5-11nnn series CPU. As listed it is a Gen 12 chip, FP64 is provided through the driver instead of hardware on the iGPU. I haven't seen exact details, but that may be through submitting double precision calculation...

FP64 started to be required about 6-7 years ago as some calculations in the GPU processing started to be done in double precision to carry enough accuracy. Not all calculations are done in double precision, the researchers identified a subset where the extra precision was required. Most calculations...

ETA is still available, but buried a bit. Click on the Work Units tab, then click for Info at the far right for a running WU. The ETA is one of the pieces of information listed.
