rather than try to recruit more CPU clients?

In order to tackle many of the problems of interest (especially related to protein misfolding and aggregation, such as in Alzheimer’s Disease), we need to not just have lots of computers participating, but we need results returned more quickly so that we can simulate trajectories of sufficient length. Right now, we achieve this by running for many months to years (indeed, our first Alzheimer’s Disease simulations ran for almost two years straight). That’s where the new clients come in. They give us considerably longer trajectories in the same wall clock time, allowing us to turn what used to take years to simulate even on FAH, to a few weeks to months.
