[extropy-chat] Folding at Home is a hog...

[Emlyn]

No I didn't even look in the logs, now I wisj I had ... a bit. It's
been doing this to me for months. It's like there have been jobs which
really go nuts, then it would eventually get past those and move onto
something else, until the next one that breaks my machine would turn
up.

I have it running on two desktops, and they have no problems.

Anyway, it's gone from my laptop now, problem solved.
