I've done a few quick searches but found nothing to answer my question. If this has been answered a thousand times I apologize, please don't beat me with a rubber hose!

OK - Hypothetically speaking, say I want to run Seti and another project, but I want to always run SETI jobs first, if a job is available to run. If there are no jobs available, I'd like to run the second project.

Is this possible? How do I do this?

Secondly, CPU utilization. Right now I have two projects running, both at 50% (total, 100%). How do I change those? Say I have a quad core SLI machine, 6 total processors available. If I had 6 SETI jobs waiting, and three of another project, I believe the current setup would run 3 SETI and 3 of the other (50% of 6=3), where I would rather run 6 SETI, then later if there is room run the other project.


Thanks!
Justin

You just have to give Seti a bigger resource share, or other project a smaller one,
you'll find the resource share in each project's preferences.
