Hi droople 1.1 The credit system is explained here: https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=2194 Basically there's some natural variation depending on the number of models (decoys) produced within your task, which is dependent on how quick your computer is and on the specifics of that task. Here's a description of how the credit system works: https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=4226&nowrap=true#54889 1.2 see https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/forum_thread.php?id=4331&nowrap=true#55266 2 stderr out is a log file in the BOINC (or BOINCData in the 6.x boinc versions).

Hi droople Thanks for your help. Does this mean I can get higher RAC by shutdown BOINC after WU finish around 60% and restart it, and upload it, get full credit? Cheers |

no - credit is per decoy (model) and there can be numerous decoys within a task. If it runs for 2hrs it might do 3 decoys and if it ran for another 2hrs it might do 6 decoys (or quite possibly more or less). |
