tear's fix is certainly worth trying. I haven't heard of the 2.10 problem causing this much of a penalty but anything is possible.Slowride wrote:Fahmon shows 413.28 PPD, just a tad shy of your numbers, eh?What does FahMon tell you about the ppd you are getting on this laptop?
I tried setting vmware-vmx to run as administrator, not sure if it took, didn't note any change as well.
I am going to look at tear's thread (again, as a lot of it went right over my head the first go round), see if I can find anything else to try.
I was also going to suggest that you stop notfreds and restart it with the command line making sure that the smp parm is in the command string.
You can enter the notfreds world by typing in:
root
cd /etc/folding/1
killall fah6
after it winds down this is the point where you would enter tear's fix -- export MPICH_NO_LOCAL=1
./fah6 -smp 4
Press Ctl &Alt at the same time to get your cursor back.
I had another thought. Run cpu-z and see what speed your cpu is running at. I wonder if the laptop is slowing the clock down.
