the time each packet takes depends on what computations are being done, there are hundreds of experiments going on, some take a couple hours, some can take a month...

Nope, the program constantly saves the progress at like every 3 minutes.

It took me about 9 hours to finish one.  I have 6 more hours to finish the 2nd one.  Also last night there were hardly any protein folders in Europe, but now there's so many.

My first one will probably take a few months. I dont have my PS3 on when I dont use it. I prefer not to waste energy. We have enough problems with global warming already.

Your PS3 will not emit smog or CO2 into the atmosphere. Your PS3 will not cause global warming...or cancer. About the worst thing that will happen is your electric bill will go up. But, hey. At least you've got some kind of an incentive. Assuming you ever contract cancer, I bet you'll leave your PS3 on day in and day out. Just kidding, but you know what I mean.

And how do you think you get electricity? The most common way is to burn coal or oil. It sure does add to the global warming :D
