I just got a WU @ 4,000,000 steps. It will be interesting to watch this one work.

4,000 units are taking me about 4 hours longer to complete than 5,000 units on the same PC.

Hi 'Koan' My 4000 WU shows 4,000,000 steps in the log file.after 48 hrs only 2,670,000 steps completed.The slowest I have encountered.I normally do a 5000 WU in 48-52 hrs.A real snail this one.Doesn't worry me.I just have to be patient. :flowers:

It's also Great, 'mz30' you have decided to "Keep On Folding" :thumbsup:

My first one. :thumbsup:

I didn't even know that I had completed it and was curious and just moused over it and saw that it was doing a 4,000. Had me confused for a second because my first one was a 5,000. So I thought something was wrong at first. :flowers:

On my desktop (Ubuntu ~ AMD 64 San Diego 2.2GHz 3700+) I've been running this one work unit for the longest time (like 4 days), and I'm only at 68%.

It's at 13,600,000 out of 20,000,000 and it's currently averaging about 1 hour and 20 minutes per percentage... I guess that is what I get for leaving on the advmethod. (advanced units).

Oh well, hopefully my laptop will churn out it's punny 5000 one here soon. :thumbsup:

EDIT:

http://fahstats.com is no longer. It is not http://kakaostats.com, but if you go to the former link it will redirect for the time being. Don't know why they changed (maybe copyright? idk), but still the same great statistics! :flowers:

Fozzie - check your F@H work log and see if your work is being uploaded?

I had an upload problem for a couple days last week. I stopped the program at the end of one WU, restarted it fresh and that's apparently when the missing two units were recognized and sucked off my system.

Your official Team stats show you've finished 30 WU's. But the photobucket shows only 27 completed?

You might need to go to the F@H help site?

The only easy day was yesterday.
