folding on gtx260

im folding on my gtx260 using vista64bit, and its not going very quick, it seems to do a bit of work then stop, then do a bit more then stop again if that makes sense, and this is confirmed when i put the viewer up, now i was watchign a video of someone folding on youtube and they have it going constantly, what going wrong in my case?

I believe that's the new work units

My GTX 280 does the same and I've read that it's perfectly normal for these units.

I'm currently running the 5902 project.

Please note, the behavior of this core is different from what you may expect. The following behaviors are NORMAL, and the points credit takes it into consideration:

Varying time per frame
Low GPU temperatures
Fluctuating CPU usage (somewhat higher than GPU core 11).

Fluctuating CPU usage is right, mine varies from a quarter of one core to all of two. Very odd
