What's the cause that HPF2 uses a minimum quorum of 15 and a inital replication of 19 ?
In my opinion it's wasting of resources. |

Dotsch,
It has been explained somewhere, but I can't find it. I looked in the FAQ and didn't find it. Basically, each of the 19 work assignments works on the same protein but contains different parameters so they are really 19 different jobs, not 19 identical jobs. Since it is 19 unique assignments, it is not a waste of resources. JB |

since Rosetta predicts proteine structure, every result is unique
