I'd like to know what the average work unit size is and what the average results size is.

Thanks!!!

From my experience during the last 3 months, I'd say that avg WU size (download) has been about 3MBytes and results size (upload) is a couple hundred KB, usually <500KBytes.

The good thing about Rosetta is that it supports adjustable WU time parameter, where it runs as many simulations ("Models") over the SAME protein data as will fit during the time you specified.

Unless you change it, the current default of 2hr/WU is very short if one operates several boxes 24/7 or have slow and/or limited volume Internet link, as it results in traffic of about 1GByte per P4 per month.

Personally I use 8hr/WU right now and current max is 24hr/WU (this used to be 4days/WU, but was reduced recently while the project is hunting for the last remaining elusive issue of "stuck at 1%").
