Is there a way to assign App_Config settings to individual GPUs? For example: <app> <name>Application_Name</name> GPU 0: <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>.5</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>.4</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> GPU 1: <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>1</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>1</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> </app> |

Not like that no. You could probably do it by giving either GPU their own application to work on, if the project has more than one GPU application, and work for them. <app> <name>Application_Name_for_GPU0</name> <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>.5</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>.4</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> </app> <app> <name>Application_Name_for_GPU1</name> <gpu_versions> <gpu_usage>1</gpu_usage> <cpu_usage>1</cpu_usage> </gpu_versions> </app> |

Thanks. Where would you specify which application is assigned to which GPU? Is this something you can add as a feature request? |

The name tag as I have shown in the example above. This name should be the same as the one from the client_state.xml file, and therefore the one given by the project. You can't use the same app name twice as then only the second one will be used. E.g. for Seti, you can define multibeam and astropulse, although work for the second one isn't available as much and it won't work on all GPUs. For all available tags, see https://boinc.berkeley.edu/wiki/Client_configuration#Application_configuration |
