Tratto dalle FAQ di Folding@home:
Are there any limits to how long my machine can take to finish a work unit (WU)?
Yes. Depending on the work unit, unfinished work units for most projects "expire"
and are reassigned to new machines. Since new WUs are generated by finishing old ones,
we must keep things moving along by expiring units. As we move to longer WUs we will
extend this time as needed. For instance, for the villin molecule we are currently using
the expiration time of 3days. :eek: Some expiration times are shorter. You will get stats credit
for all units that you complete, even if they have expired, but they will not be as useful
scientifically.
.... se funzionano tutti così i vari progetti tipo Seti, Ud, Folding, posso tranquillamente
abbandonarli tutti perchè se va bene il PC mi sta con lo screen saver si e no mezzora al giorno,
quindi prima di finire una WU di giorni ne passano!.
In definitiva tutto lavoro inutile tanto "will not be as useful scientifically".:( :
