too bad the app doesn't utilize SMP.

hey, I get baddest hardware I can convince the bosses to pay for
I do 3D animation and even the fastest hardware gets brought to it's knees by 3D Studio MAX in a hurry!
but that's only from 8 to 5, from 5:30 to 7:30 it's all cancer crunching!
The workstations with dual processors could do twice as much if the app supported SMPS (multi-processing) but since multi cpu machines are the tiniest minority, optimizing it for single cpu pcs makes a lot more sense

How can you tell how many ligands you've processed?

1) Double-Click on the UD Agent in your Windows "Tray".
2) Click on the (i) on the bottom right of the UD Application Window.

It will tell you the ligand information.

For you dual CPU guys, any chance you can get your computer to run two copies of the program? Just a thought...

Yeah, it just says "primary task is executing, 3% done ... etc." Does that mean I am so slow I haven't completed even one?

It ran all night last night while I was home ing.

Click on the i button, second one along at the bottom of that UD screen! It shows how many ligands out of your current batch you've done.

I got an Athlon 2 gig processor and 500 mb of DDR RAM and typically 30 ligands take about 16 hours of processor time so I wouldn't get too disheartened!
