Folding Forum

What are the time-intervals between the load-drops? They occur once every 27-28 seconds, like clockwork. Now that you mention it, they actually seem to line up with the completion of each 0.1% in work unit progress! (project 11293) The computations are never quite uniform. There will be checkpoint ...

Nice idea, but doesn't seem to be the case for me. I'm often browsing while folding and wouldn't be surprised to see that hit the GPU load if I run into a bunch of Flash or WebGL. I still observed the pattern after closing my browser, though, and even after a fresh reboot with nothing opened before ...

I just recently got into some GPU folding for the first time. I'm running 7.1.52 on an AMD 7850 using the GPU.txt whitelist, just the GPU slot going, no SMP. The monitor for the GPU load is showing a periodic drop from regular 100% load to 30-70% about every 25-30 seconds. Is this just normal load f...
