I just installed 6.12.13 on a new system with clean install of Win-7 and I noticed that my 4 "ATI" projects I signed up for were all taking turns running on my ATI CYPRESS 5850: Milkway, Prime, Collatz, Seti-Beta. Normally, I see one project run for days with a huge queue and then another project starts up and does the same with a bigger or smaller queue.

It this is an artifact of a clean install or a better scheduler?

I will be looking at this system and will post back here when/if I see changes.

Read through the 6.11 and above change log thread for all changes to the scheduler and other bug fixes in BOINC 6.12

Yes, fast GPU switches have been fixed.
