I can tell you for certain that Folding@Home loses out to the aquarium. When I first started folding I left the aquarium as my screen saver, overnight my computer only processed 1 frame out of 100. Without the aquarium running I average 25-50 a night depending on the work unit. The same goes for my computer at work and my girlfriend's. Folding@Home is setup the same as the aquarium, it is set to idle, it just uses spare cycles and maxes out your processor.
I don't watch commercials.
