Gfah is a plugin for GkrellM that offers a local monitoring and interface solution for the Linux Folding@Home client. This software allows users to easily view critical information from the client.
With gfah, users can collect detailed status information on active work units conveniently displayed for easy access via a one-line text panel, along with other GkrellM monitors. The software also logs information on completed work units locally.
One of the key features of Gkrellfah2 is its ability to actively control the amount of CPU time required by the F@H client, effectively reducing overall CPU utilization and possibly temperature. The desktop version includes a ControlPanel for easy accessibility and streamlined usage.
The software supports up to eight monitors, each with accessible ControlPanel popups via mouse button 1. Additionally, the active work unit status can be accessed via mouse tooltips.
Gkrellfah2's desktop and client versions include Configuration Tabs that can be accessed within GkrellM's Configuration window. Here, users can access Folding at home Team Statistics, Completed Workunit logs, CPU Utilization Control, and even technical support.
The software includes a Gkrellm desktop plugin, client plugin, and server plugin all bundled neatly in one RPM package. This software version comes with new updates, including an updated "get_wu_runtime()" formula capable of computing points-per-hour based on new and available data, effectively reducing the rate error by up to 80%.
Overall, Gkrellfah2 proves to be a fantastic software solution for monitoring and managing the Linux Folding@Home client with unparalleled convenience and precision.
