Message 23605 - Posted: 10 Mar 2009, 20:30:10 UTC

I've been using boinc for some months now.
I have a dual core cpu with cuda enabled gpu (nvidia 9800gtx).
The last days I notice that both cores process tasks for a single project. e.g. both cores process Miklyway@home tasks, and no cuda tasks run.
I'd like to have both cores process tasks for different processes. And I would like to have always one cuda task running also. This cuda task should be scheduled on a core together with another task, since it takes only 0.07CPU it says.
I know that I can run cuda simultaneously with 2 other tasks if I set the ncpu option = 3. But the last days, this only results in 3 tasks for a same project running on both cores simultaneoiusly.
Any help is welcome.

The 6.6.x version should do a better job of scheduling the GPU. However there will still be the possibility of both CPUs running the same project.
