Not usually in a position to see two of the same WU folding side by side on a PC but today is that day.

[08:05:56] Project: 775 (Run 21, Clone 119, Gen 4)
[08:06:18] Completed 200000 out of 250000 steps (80)
[11:21:18] Completed 225000 out of 250000 steps (90)

[08:14:10] Project: 775 (Run 43, Clone 47, Gen 5)
[08:14:31] Completed 202500 out of 250000 steps (81)
[11:09:14] Completed 227500 out of 250000 steps (91)

As you will notice both are at a simular step, the first starting 10 minutes earlier than the second. You may also notice that the second thread is taking 20min less per 10 steps aka 10% faster.

So is it my usage only affecting one thread (the first one started) and not the second or are Run 21 & Run 43 actually different, quick check of task manager say that mem usage is 31K and 33K (21 and 43 respectively)

so more WU using more memory running faster - reason
It's at 50% and other thread at 45% doh! working at 95% to stop EUE due to OC on stock cooling. sorry people.

but does show that same number WU's are not all the same. Just restarted run 21 now show 40K Mem usage.... :confused:

- brain hurts off for some lunch

Edit - lunchtime folds (no user input)
Project: 775 (Run 21, Clone 119, Gen 4) 19min (reduced from 20) 32K % 45%
Project: 775 (Run 43, Clone 47, Gen 5) 17mins (reduced from 18) 40K % 50%

Would HT bias the computation of the greater usage (%) as 10% faster for only 5% extra processor usage (and more memory usage) does not stack up.

Thanks mattus - of late my logs and observations agree - points count doesn't seam to corralate with variation in folding time it would seam. Guess its at atom proximity thing as mattus said and not size dependent.

anyone got any stats/benchmarks on multipule larger WU crunch on same machine

as mentioned on other threads my ppd score and core type don't show up in benchmark logs here at work.

Didn't have a points.dat file in the folder or would have just copied that.
Next best option was all file copy transfer (so that's what I did)

only three dat files my folder contains are - prefs.dat, projects.dat & benchmarks.dat
