Thanks for that link. I didn't know previosly how many points I would get for my WUs.
Now I have another question, though. The WU I am currently working on is twice as big but only worth 44 points compared to the 241 for the previous 2 WUs. What's up with that?
Been lurking quietly and letting my one, lone PC happily fold proteins... and man, I must not have been paying attention. Somehow, we've almost reached 300. Last I noticed, we were just at 400. Wow!
... then again, I finally hit 1750 points, and I'm rather happy 'bout that, even if I'm not even 1% of Klutz's point total. :)
Just goes to show I oughta pay attention more often. :)
Sometimes the WUs are 'larger' meaning that they have more steps or frames, but are worth less (fewer points) usually because they take less time to complete the entire WU. I've had some that take 23 minutes per frame, and some that take 8 seconds per frame. The one I'm working on has 250 frames, and will take about a day to complete. One other computer is munching away on a WU with out 30000 frames. I don't know the points they're worth, I'm obsessed enough just with the processing time of the different WUs, I'd go crazy analying the points (average points per frame/points per hour, etc, etc, etc)
Proteins, they're a weird thing. Some are much more complex than others. Hence, some of the WUs are more complex than others, take more of your CPU cycles to process, so they reward you with more points...
