Added a P42.4ghz to F@H....

I'll be moving up fast so watch your backs 😛

I'll add the -advmethods I suppose but honestly the CA (is this gromacs?) core isn't producing the points the slower tinker core is so it seems like a trade off to me, WU's vs points or am I missing the forest for all the trees here?

I dunno what CA is, but -advmethods is a big win whether you have a P4 or an Athlon XP.

Some timings:

Athlon 2700 XP: 7 point GROMACS WU every 2 hours
P4 2.2GHZ: 7 point GROMACS WU every 2hours 40mins

In comparison, (if memory serves me correctly I've been doing nothing but GROMACS for over a week now), I was doing about 1.5 TINKER 20 pointers per day.

Ah, I misread. FAHCORE_78.EXE is the GROMACS core.

You need to set up the client (in advanced options) to prefer Folding@Home units, or else you will get a healthy mix of G@H units as well. Even with the preference set to F@H only, you may still get a G@H WU occasionally. The Folding@Home WUs (Tinker and especially Gromacs) are faster, so that's the option you want. 🙂

Thanx guys, is there any reason I shouldn't let it do genome unit?

Nah, let it go. As long as you entered 198 for your team number, TA still gets credit (AFAIK), but G@H WUs are a little slower, AFAIK.
