Cool. All set then! I'm just using "velocirapture" for a handle since I don't have a CoH account of any stripe, but like I said before, any of that is just a sideline to the science getting done. Not that I'm getting nearly the results of some high-end systems just running on CPU, even a Ryzen 3600, but it's more than I'd be contricuting otherwise, so yeah.
I will say that the current work unit running is the most interesting one I've seen in the visualizer so far, with lots of little loose ends flailing around and the main blob wiggling and pulsating in and out like a "living alien organ" prop from an 80s Dr. Who episode. Looking up the project number tells me it is part of the COVID-19 research, but no further details, and I don't have the bio/O-chem background to understand much of them anyway. If there's some way to set the visualizer to look at a specific data set rather than what's running when you hit the button to open it from FAHControl, it's 14534. I mean, there must be since the whole point is to crunch through these for researchers to look at, but I haven't explored too deeply into that end of it.
edit: And that one finished while I was writing, while opening up the new one (13851) shows it springing apart into two separate blobs from snapshot 2 to 3! Very cool.
