I’m trying to understand the size (Gigabytes/Megabytes) of the current project Target #23: Ebola GP1 and how it’s split into work units. What’s the total data size, and how large is each individual work unit sent to volunteers? Basically, how is the data broken down for processing?

I like running performance modeling on distributed computing workloads like SiDock@Home, SETI@Home, and rendering tasks to see how different CPUs and GPUs compare in real-world GFLOPS performance. Similar to how cpubenchmark.net ranks hardware.

Hello! I apologize for the late response. For each target, including Ebola GP1, we perform a virtual screening of a library containing 982,401,500 molecules. The library is divided into units of 500 molecules. Each unit, approximately 240 KB in size, serves as input for one BOINC workunit.

So about 500 GB of non-duplicate workunits for each target, plus a smaller dataset for the results? 1964000 WUs × 0.24MB= 471.36GB

when will it start?
