It means that you are about 1/5 done. Check the log and see how long it takes per %.

That's a fairly good fold rate.

Re: Folding @ Home
I downloaded and joined the party this morning. The software has been running for 6 hours now and I have generated 152/250 So I should have my first packet completed today.
according to the log file I'm saving a section every 6 mins or so. Not bad I guess for my AMD Athlon XP 1700+ (1.467 ghz)
I was wondering, would the program run much faster if I had no other programs running? (like internet explorer.) Also would it run faster if I went offline?
Just a few questions for you experts.
Cheers!

Re: Folding @ Home
BTW: I noticed the program had the ability to insert a custom banner, so I created a "Sharky Forums Folding Team" banner.
If anyone would like it, just let me know.

Re: Folding @ Home
Wow, my first WU has just been completed, but I still don't see my name in the list of members on the Sharky Forum folding team. The Last name on the list is kirk with 1 WU delivered.
I guess there is a bit of a delay before things register on the stat screens. Oh well, I'll check tomorrow.

On an AMD rig you need to check and see if your chip has the SSE instruction set. If it does, use the 3.25 beta client. Set it up and then creat a shortcut put the shortcut in your start up folder and add the following to the instruction line, -advmethods -forceasm There is a sticky thread with pictures at Sharkys.
