Folding@home is one of the world's fastest computing systems. With heightened interest in the project as a result of the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic, the system achieved a speed of approximately 1.22 exaFLOPS, or 2.43 x86 exaFLOPS, by April 12, 2020, making it the world's first exaFLOP computing system.

 * Install your client, set your user name and pass key in your client, and set your team number.

Background

Folding@home (FAH or F@h) is a distributed computing project for performing molecular dynamics simulations of protein dynamics.

Folding@home is one of the world's fastest computing systems. With heightened interest in the project as a result of the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic, the system achieved a speed of approximately 1.22 exaFLOPS, or 2.43 x86 exaFLOPS, by April 12, 2020, making it the world's first exaFLOP computing system.
