The Beast
132 Opteron CPU's strong, the beast does all the computing on the Amyloind Energetics project. And we still have the big hole to fill with even more CPU's :).
While the methodoly is being continuously improved, current throughput is 50,000 hexameric segments/day. The database of the results and predicted structures grows by 10 GB/day. A high performance RAID storage backend in conjunction with a SQL server provides fast and convenient access to any result and structure in milliseconds.
