BOINC Addition

Post by PappaLitto »

I think it would be a great idea to have an additional project under the Folding@home name as a BOINC project. For one, you'll get more teraFLOPS of compute. Two, people will be able to have folding@home as a backup project more easily if their main contribution is for something that runs out of work quite often like GPUGrid. And three, BOINC users have the ability to benefit from Gridcoin, but this is only through the BOINC client and not through the folding@home client.

For a detailed answer, please see the previous discussion here. Can Folding@home be added as a BOINC project?
