Paul.

So how do I read this data or is it that straight forward.
Rosetta@home
Rosetta 4301
rosetta python projects 331

Meaning the are more non python tasks (Rosetta 4.20) and we could get by without the Vbox. 331 python projects does not sound like a lot.

I'm assuming more people would make that 4301 get higher.

This is World Community Grid
Africa Rainfall Project 2621
Help Stop TB 16
Mapping Cancer Markers 34253
OpenPandemics - COVID 19 29350
OpenPandemics - COVID-19 - GPU 5715

This is from their site:
Sounds a lot like this place with people owning regular machines and giving the idle time. Like I said above I know of no one with 128 GB of RAM. OK, some have machines doing 24/7

The best way to find out is to try it and see. The first sign of VBox will end the experiment.

There's not much selection for Android devices like my Odroids. I could install Linux on them as there are more projects supporting Linux on ARM than Android, but I won't do that just for a two-month hiatus from WCG. And the whole point of running Android rather than Linux on them was to do WCG work for MCM rather than OPN (since the latter has a more-efficient GPU option). Further, if I were to install Linux then I'd have to install Android again later since there's no Linux-on-ARM option for MCM once it resumes. So they'll stay on Android.

As discussed earlier in the thread, Rosetta and LHC have VirtualBox tasks which can't run on Android. They have non-VB tasks that could run but those are consistently all sent out with no more available (e.g. Sixtrack on LHC). Einstein@Home has only one sub-project compatible with Android (BRP4) and has all tasks sent out. That leaves only a few projects: Universe@Home, Moo! Wrapper, and Yoyo@home.

Moo is doing an "RC5-72" challenge which looks to be related to an encryption algorithm if you really dig into it (they do a poor job of explaining what they're actually doing to encourage participation). Yoyo has only one sub-project for Android and it "searches for the shortest Optimal Golumb Ruler of the length 28". I couldn't care less about pure mathematics projects. So for my Odroids that pretty much leaves Universe@Home which is various simulations related to space.

I'm leaning toward LHC@home for my Windows box since Rosetta can't allocate memory appropriately and I want to fully make use of 30 threads on 64 GB (while leaving 2 threads and sufficient memory for still using the computer).

I will be downloading the maximum available work on the 14th, and when it runs low, I will be participating in Folding @ Home.

These are the currently available projects - you can click on them for summaries:
https://apps.foldingathome.org/psummary
The GRO_A7 and GRO_A8 projects run on CPUs.
The OPENMM_22 projects run on GPUs.

The system requirements vary for each project, but they use far less RAM than Rosetta and have more than enough work to last until WCG is operational again.

For those with strong GPUs, I recommend setting your preference for Alzheimer's work. Project 18201 scales well with high-performance cards and has had consistent work for many months.

Don't cache more than you can do before the deadline for the work unit. Resends will be going out, and they hope to have all WUs in a done state by shutdown on the 28th.

ARPs have a shorter than usual deadline, I'm not sure about the others.

Take a small cache to keep working for a little bit after the 14th, and see if you get any resends between 14th and 28th. Resends are sent to reliable machines, so again, keep your cache a reasonable size to be able to get resends.

You can NOT keep any WUs to work on during the shutdown!
