This event has ended and I recommend you guys head over to the Folding Community Board for any general folding conversation.

CoreWeave and Folding@Home have teamed up to fight COVID-19 by crowdsourcing the world's largest supercomputer to help advance the open-source research of COVID-19.

CoreWeave is proud to support this effort with over 6,000 of our high-end GPUs.

 OMG 🤪

There are 3 new massive servers on Azure that they’ve brought up recently and even those are getting hammered due to the volume of traffic. They’ve also had one server added in France and a couple more in the US.

 

So even with one other server on LTT’s Gigabit Internet connection it will help but likely still be slow. I suspect the issue is not the size of the pipes or the size of the system but these systems abilities to handle hundreds of thousands of connections per second.

 

The main issue I see in the logs is that we’re not getting assigned to a Work Server (WS) by the Assignment Servers (AS) and they’ve yet to add any more of those but I’m sure they’re working on it.

Anyone who's getting CPU jobs finding they're <1 hr or quite a bit shorter than earlier? Got like 3 of those so far.  Merely curious.

HMMM I also have a gigabit connection, (relatively) cheap power and need to heat my home.

LET ME BUILD A SERVER! :D

 

I guess pipe can be a limiting factor but the most limiting will be CPU and software optimization...

 

Sooo where did you get the info about Azure?

Dependig on the project and what your PC is doing besides folding those variations are completely normal ;)

I wonder what the FOH server architecture is like. Is the problem with software not supporting rapid scaling or is problem just in getting new hardware to scale to?

 

If it's the first problem then thats pretty bad in current situation.

If it's just finding the horsepower then I'm pretty sure some IaaS provider would be willing to support this project for some months.

 

Is there any more detailed information about that available?

 

 

BTW! Hi guys. Total newby to LTT forums.

I pay extra for exclusive green power... well... kinda... exclusively green energy credits because thats how the national grid works.

I have solar panels on my roof we installed a few months ago. We'refinally getting enough sun to really see what it can do :)

What are the potential security concerns from FAH? A buddy of mine is worried about things like botnets.

Pretty much none if you make sure you get the real client from the real website

Ok guys here some motivation: IBM is leading 330 PetaFLOPS of power (16 supercomputers tied together) to fight COVID-19, we (team LTT) have the same amount of FLOPS and FAH combinded right now has over 1 ExaFLOPS (1000 PetaFLOPS) of power. Not only is this a world record and each one of you is a part of world's first Exa-scale supercomputer, but researchers now have this whole power to simulate a counterattack, with 1 000 000 000 000 000 000 operations per second! 1/10th of time to find the vaccine = potentially hundreds of thousands lives SAVED. You might not realize how important those atomic-level simulations are.

Looking at the server stats and the Folding support forms

Looks like Oracle has just chipped in a server on their cloud platform too, oracle1.foldingathome.org (IP owned by Oracle). Just come online in the last few hours, probably still being setup.

I noticed that too...

 

Can't say anything about them not expanding quickly...

 

Also the fact they are using cloud makes sense as this massive amount of compute is most likely going to drop off in a few months
