Folding@Home 10 Year Anniversary

Image001

October 1st marked the 10th year anniversary for the Folding@Home project. As an early donor I’ve been following it since the project started, but I have to confess that I am mostly inactive as a donor. In the past 10 years, I have only completed 599 WU (Work Unit), which is a miniscule amount of contribution when compared to most active donors. However, I’ve witnessed the progress of the project, from its infant stage (client with no optimization), all the way to the later supports for SSE instruction, SMP, ATi Stream, nVidia CUDA, 64-bit client, PS3 and now OpenCL. The team of Folding@Home did a wonderful job utilizing the new technologies and making their distributed computing network to perform more efficiently. Congratulations!
