Comment Folding @ Home? (Score 2, Informative) 97
I was wondering how this World Community Grid stands up to Folding@Home?
I'm a member of a F@H team and it seems like there are a lot of people participating. Are these efforts competing against one another or are they different areas of study? I don't quite understand.
Also, I know that the F@H client can run in the background and take up no system resources, only unused processor cycles, (which is part of the reason I use it.) Does the World Community Grid project's clients take up a lot of system resources...?
