No waiting for units as much

Post by pylgrym »

I'm not sure whether the demand has reduced or the supply gone up. Probably a combination of both. I joined after reading news articles about F@H getting busier when Covid-19 hit and I run my GTX 1080 24/7. In March, April and May it spent about 12% of the time waiting for a new WU (a tiny bit of that will have been me but mostly not). In June that dropped to 1.78%. So a big shout out to all the hard working and often grumbled at folk who have been adding capacity and pushing new projects through and whatever else needed doing since March.

Thank you all.

I don't think demand has gone down. It's just that supply has caught up. And only fold on CPU and it has never been waiting for a WU.
