Don't worry about an HTTP proxy ATM. Since you run only 1 computer with 8 cores and only 16 GB RAM it's very likely that you will not permanently run lots of those heavy tasks concurrently that make a proxy a recommendation. You may instead focus on running few but stable VM tasks from LHC@home. Start with not more than 1 or 2 running concurrently and only increase that number step by step if that setup was stable for a couple of days. |
