Can i find out what this Project is points wise.

Fahmon does not reconcile this wu with it;s web download function.

Is there a link to this specific WU. Thanks in advance..

p1739 is worth 57 points. PM sent.

Researcher notified via PM.

Is 1738 also 57 points?

Yep. Yet another 57 pointer. Did you get this WU today? Or was it downloaded earlier?

One of the machines on my team started working on it last night. The points seem kind of low. That box has been getting about 230 PPD on the Ambers, but is only getting around 62 PPD on this unit. Even accounting for the bonus on the Amber, that is a big hit. Hope it goes back to folding the Amber units when it is done with the 1738.

Keep in mind that Amber are bonus WU.

p1738-9 are good old classic Gromacs ... no bonuses here (not a bigWU and not a special project).

As I understand it, the Amber bonus is a factor of 2. Dividing 230 PPD by 2 gives an expected non-bonus rate of 115 PPD. Going from 115 to 62 PPD is, to me, a pretty big hit. Or did they increase the bonus on the Ambers to something like 3.5 when I wasn't paying attention?

As I understand it, the Amber bonus is a factor of 2.

New rules for advanced methods (-adv flag)

To reward users for participating in this exciting project, we will be giving a x1.5 bonus in the points awarded.

ChelseaOilman refers to the April 22 news. However on May 13:

The -advmethods "bonused" AMBER Core WUs just got more bonus.

Starting with projects 4534-6 (to come online shortly), the bonus points will be x2.0. We hope that this will attract even more -adv users, and commensurately reward our current -adv users for this high-priority project.

Let me remind everyone that these "bonused" projects are for a limited time (until ~August). As before, point info at: http://fah-web.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/fahproject?p=4534

Vince

so I think dmearns is on target with the x2.0 factor currently.

Folding On!

Read the whole thread. The AMBER work units are of variable length. Some will get a little more than expected, a lot will get less.

Since no processor info was posted, we really couldn't make an accurate guess as to expected performance.
