So Slow...

Why is my folding so slow?
Most my PPD is from a PS3 which seems to be doing more than this lot:

How can i speed them up?


Thanks

 

Initial question - what is your hardware and OS?
Second question - what projects are you running (you had no choice, but the PPD can vary a lot between projects)?

The PS3 should be getting about 900PPD.
The Athlon 3500 figure may be OK - depends on project
The GPUs can probably be improved

 

Ok well hardware and OS:

8500GT - Windows Vista Home Premium
Server - 8600GT - Windows Home Server
AMD Athlon 3500+ - Windows Home Server
Sam-PC - 8600GT - Windows XP SP3 (This one is sometimes on when not gaming)

Just adding a AMD 4800+ which is running on Windows Vista Ultimate.

And for prodjects I ealy do have no idear.
The 3500+ is the slowest out of the lot
Takes days to fold for crappy points But its for a good cause

 

Just a quick question - Which guide, if any, did you use to create your fahmon web template? I'd like to put a link to one for my folding in my farm thread

 

I did use a guid sorta looked around in prefrences and notice the export web application.
I just set it to save it in a webfolder on my server and made it public via a url. Keeps its self updated Pretty good so far.

I can try get some screenshots for you if you want

 

This one looks like a good one

But its realy not that hard Did it with in 4mins never used fahmon before and I'm 16 lol.

 

I'm in the middle of doing it myself using that guide, googled for it and came across that one, cheers!

 

if the guid dosn't work then I would suggest running WAMP.
Which runs a webserver on your computer. (Windows Apache, MySql, Php - i think lol)

The setting fahmon to export the template into the www folder of WAMP in C:/wamp.
The portforwarding the corrent ports for html. 80 is the main one i think.
Then get a url to point at your ip, or get a dyndns url form a website and pont your url to that if you have a non-static ip.

ethier way im sure you will figure it out nice farm by the way

 

Thanks, I'll give it a go and see what happens Don't worry too much about low PPD today btw, mine is desperately low on all hardware today as well. Tough WU's and projects are to blame.

 

Go to FahMon, View, Show/hide WU Info panel. Highlight client of interest.

It doesn't surprise me that the Athlon 3500 is the slowest, and takes days; so do mine.

 

Dose the webtemplate i linked show the projects?

e.g. Project: 5749 (R3, C229, G182) ?

 

Not when I click on the link in your sig

 

hmm seems to work for me.

 

+1

CNL - The different clients in the webtemplate are clickable

 

How is yours going by the way, Any luck?

 

Havent tried it just yet, was about to start

 

Ok if you get stuck feel free to ask

 

I am stuck but I doubt that you will be able to help I can't login to the Genuine Gaming webserver ftp.

 

ohh yeah I cant help there im afraid.

hehe passwords, infomation and bits.

 

It's not the password or login name, I can access those through my control panel. It's the actual FTP url - My host has disabled FTP acces to the server. Needless to say i am about to call them and give out yards.
