Description: This is a graph of the Folding@home distributed computing project's computational performance between April 8, 2004 and October 15, 2013. The graph shows Folding@home's performance in x86 teraFLOPS and the rMax speed of the top three supercomputers from top500.org. Folding@home's performance is significantly above the most powerful supercomputer until April of 2011 when the K Computer overtook it. As the Folding@home website does not display a graph of the project's statistics over time, this graph was built from reliable historical data from around the Internet. Not all points could be found; this graph draws a smooth line between them. If you are interested in the sources for the data or if you'd like to see the graph updated, please contact User:Jesse V. on his Wikipedia talk page.
