I just noticed this on the Institute for Systems Biology's website:
<<We’ll use the spare computing power from huge numbers of volunteers to run Rosetta on more than fifty thousand protein sequences.>> |

Not as long as you would think...One day we've done 7 years of computations and that is going to increase dramaticly!!!

Do you mean "In one day we've done 7 years of computing"?
Because if that were true, that would be fucking crazy |

Their estimation of potential is being able to compress 50,000 years worth of computing into 12 months...

Well the program just started, yesterday we got 7years , today 14 years computing time at 1 day.
As it becomes more popular, it wil be done before you know  |
