41	differentiate between number of CPUs to use in idle and busy mode	KSMarksPsych	davea	Posted by: \r\nDate: 3:05 PM 04-07-2007\r\nBOINC detects if the machine is busy and can limit the number of CPUs to use. I'd like to see a feature, that I can define 2 numbers of CPUs to use, one if the machine is idle and one if the machine is busy. Right now I've got a dual processor machine and allow BOINC to use one of them so that my work is not slowed down. But when the machine is idle, BOINC could use both CPUs. Right now, this is not possible. With the advent of multi-processor/core machines spreading out to end users, this would allow more CPU power to be used by BOINC and the necessary preconditions are already implented.
