Does anyone run Seti@home?

Tired of ads?

I've been looking for a group to join and wondered if there was an Apolyton group, or if not, is there enough interest to get one going.

That, I don't know. Seems MLeonard was the driving force.
Run a search here?
Not seen as an option group at SETI?

I thought about joining until I realised that, with it taking about 100 hours for me to complete a work unit, I was probably wasting my time.

Until we successfully contact aliens, who give us all the medical knowledge we could ever need, thereby negating any effort on Folding@Home.

I considered changing to folding@home, but since the protein people have much more money to buy their own computing power (compared to SETI), I stay with SETI@home for the time being.

Damn you! I decided for Folding, and now i'm considering switching back to Seti.

Ok, the folding thingie looks prettier with all those cool molecules, but, but.... damn it!

SETI has a more detailed progress report, and a Poly team. Klingons, here I come!

Yes, you are...for the moment.

Gives me someone else to shoot for since Combat Ingrid blew past me about 6 months ago, and I can't compete with his 9hr 36min return rate.

Japher, go to this site (The SETI@Home home page):

http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu

All of your questions should be answered. If you still have questions, well, you can always ask here on Apolyton.

I was doing 8hrs/unit at some point, then my computer had a fit and my average went all to Hell, jumping to 16hrs. My new computer innards are slowly bring that back down to 8-ish hours/unit again. But it won't be for another month or so before I can continue SETI@Home...waiting on the other program to finish.

Sigh...

Increase Your PM Length

With SETI@Home, it communicates only at the beginning/end of a workunit: send a completed unit (or multiple units, see next sentence...) and receive a new one. You can set it up so that the program connects to their servers automatically OR prompt you to connect. Workunits are 360kb in size when received by my computer.

Please tell me how it goes, I'm trying to build a comparable system near the end of this month. Right now my laptop can do just under 5 hours if I run nothing else.
