Thermalfish has been a Folding force to be reckoned with since the day he burst on the scene. Now at the impressive 250,000 point mark, he continues to astound.

Incredible job, teammate! :respect:

Conquering The Cogs!!!!!!!

hahah and seem to be staying that way!

What WUs gives one over a thousand points a pop?

And what gives SEVEN POINTS? I lost half a beer seeing that.

You are lucky actually, I had to shut down two dual-core AMDs because of the electric bill :( You will catch up eventually, but I am putting down my best fight ;)

I just checked that seven point, it was an "EARLY UNIT END" of P3038. There was not a crash or anything, the core says the following

[06:14:09] Completed 4450000 out of 5000000 steps (89)
[06:15:43] Gromacs cannot continue further.
[06:15:43] Going to send back what have done.
[06:15:43] logfile size: 217706
[06:15:43] - Writing 218242 bytes of core data to disk...
[06:15:43] ... Done.
[06:15:43]
[06:15:43] Folding@home Core Shutdown: EARLY_UNIT_END
[06:15:46] CoreStatus = 72 (114)
[06:15:46] Sending work to server


[06:15:46] + Attempting to send results
[06:15:52] + Results successfully sent
[06:15:52] Thank you for your contribution to Folding@Home.

The result is 7 points. This happened before with P3038, they keep sending these WUs. :sad2: Everything else has been running fine on this computer since several months.:confused:

Still race ya!

Oh by the way, most of the >1K point WUs are for Linux. You can see them below. Do you have Windows machines only?

Ah thanks for that info.

Currently about 65 CPUs are PPC G5s (1.6, 1.8 and 2.0 GHZ) running MACOSX
The rest are a mix of Athlon and Sempron 3000s, XEON 2.8 GHZ and a lonely Opteron.

Unfortunately, I cant change any of the OS, though with some new hardware coming I may be able to cycle some of the older stuff.

Thanks for the info!
