Message 44346 - Posted: 29 May 2012, 10:19:19 UTC

I’m running Seti@home and malariacontrol.net, using all four cores of my CPU. Both projects are allotted 50% each of the available resources.

For many weeks now the Seti project will occupy all four options unless I suspend two of them to be used by malaria.

My Operating System is Windows 7 64-bit and the BOINC Manager I use is version 7.0.28.

Can anyone help solve this problem?

Leave things well alone and eventually BOINC will turn its attention to Malaria. BOINC 7.0 has not only got a whole new scheduler (separate CPU and GPU schedulers) to work with, it also does things differently when compared to BOINC 6.

You will now have BOINC run per project first, until it knows how they do their work. Only after its renewed learning period will it start running a couple of tasks for one project and a couple for the other. It'll have to relearn when you add another project. It will not learn when you continue to make decisions for it, and suspend one project to allow the other to fetch work.
