Raspberry Pi Forums

So I bought a Raspberry Pi in January and have not really put it to much use, but I am considering using it for scientific application (such as devoting it towards folding proteins via Folding at Home.) Is this a feasible option? I was reading a topic on another forum where a similar question was asked but a user posited that because of it using an ARM-based processor it would not work very well.

Let me know what you think...

It will be slow on compute-hungry applications, but it can be done:

Thank you very much for providing that link!

Does BIONC use the GPU at all?
