Hi, all.

My question is simple... but the answer perhaps not... ;)

Any of you knows how can I calculate my performance in Teraflops in Rosetta??.

Thanks in advance.

TeraFLOPS is a measure of computing power. But the "S" on the end is for "per second". FLOPS would be floating point operations, with nearly 3 million credits, you've got lots of FLOPS. But what time period did it take to generate them?

The rough measure used by most BOINC projects is credits divided by 100,000 = 1 TFLOP. The closest measure of your compute power per second that we have is your RAC. 7000 is roughly how many points per day you are chugging along at presently. 7,000 divided by 100,000 credits per TFLOP, divided by 86,400 seconds per day would be the best estimate from the data available.

Another way to look at it is that your 7000 RAC is about .08% of the project's total RAC of 8.6million. Nearly a tenth of a percent of the entire global contribution to the project. Where else do you control a tenth of a percent of the world's supply of something? :)
