   12 Nov 2004 ~ 6:05pm KingFish I doubt it. It looks to be mainly a bug fix release tailored to GUI issues.

   14 Nov 2004 ~ 7:18pm Straight_Man The only heavier stability issues I see are:
   
   OpenGL mod-- this is a fix for video also, thus GUI but can have some anti-Client-hang effects on some computers (did help some folks with hanging clients also, when the hang had to do with OpenGL issues).
   
   The WU fix for project 268 and the like. (On p268 and WUs like, it folding might be smoother, so for tHOSE WUs it also might be a tib faster, but probably not for all WUs.)
   
   The frame time update calc fix might help overall time per WU with amberGS suffix WUs and Amber core and WUs as those come out, also-- especially, and with WUs that run a real long time per frame also, MAYBE (depends on WU and core in part).
   
   For slightly faster folding, many of us use the TEXTUAL client, and dispense with GUI. This takes some GUI load off of XP, and lets you have a service run of the textual client if you want that. To see where the textual client is in a WU and when it is saying, you get to look at your FAHlog.txt file.

   1 Dec 2005 ~ 11:36am athomson I wanted to run folding at home but I think it will clash with the BOINC client which runs SETI@Home, Eignstien@home etc. So I looked for othe compatable projects and Rosetta@Home seems to have the same goals as folding@home so I run that.
