Folding is on the GPU ballot. Does it run well on CPU?

This sounds more like a conspiracy against chairs, proteins, bad hands, and other things that Fold!

Folding typically works better on gpu setups because otherwise it takes forever on cpus. Is there a benefit to running poem on cpu?

Running out of time to vote or break the current tie. Also isn't FIND the same project as fightmalaria@home?

EDit: as to the folding stuff i had forgotten that they released a client that runs in Chrome browser that uses your cpu to shrub for a cure to diabetes.

Dang it, I forgot to include Citizen Science Grid! Mad

Oh well, that's why I post the planning threads, attempting to catch errors like that and get new ideas.

Ok well whatever they did in transitioning to the fight against several diseases they broke the code because i do get the suspend issue. I told a wu to suspend and it continued to use a core without the progress moving

We need to test FiND@Home before declaring it the PotM. There is a problem with snoozing or suspending certain types of WU. See this thread which I linked earlier. If Knights are seeing this problem - Plomos has already confirmed it - we should select something else as PotM for September.

On edit: I don't see how FiND@Home is going to behave for PotM. WUs don't pause when computer is in use as requested, etc.

Are there any more VOTES! out there? 2nd place project is a tie. Confused
